Prince Ea《每个人都会死,但不是每个人都曾活过》

Prince Ea Everybody Dies, But Not Everybody Lives

大部分人的恐惧不是死亡，而是在走到生命尽头时，蓦然回首才发现，你从未真正活过。

根据某家医院的研究，访问了一百名临终前的老人，要他们回想，他们人生中最大的遗憾是什么？几乎所有人的回答，都不是关于他们做过的事，而是他们没做过的事。比如没冒过的险，没追过的梦…

我问你，你人生的遗言会是——额，如果我有……

嘿，兄弟，醒醒吧，你存在的理由是什么？人生不只是工作，然后等待周末和缴房租而已！不，不是的！虽然我知道的不多，但是有件事我懂，那就是“天生我材必有用”。

而且我要向所有的黑人朋友们说一声，伟大的民权运动领袖马丁·路德·金，那个“I have a dream”的男人，不是他有一个梦，而是那个梦拥有了他。

不是人们选择梦想，而是梦想选择人们。

所以我的问题是——你是否有勇气抓住那个选中你的梦想？那个属于你、撼动你的梦想！

还是你会选择眼睁睁地看着它溜走！

我最近才知道一项关于飞机的事实——非常令人惊讶的事实——我跟一位驾驶员聊天，他告诉我有很多乘客觉得搭飞机很危险。他说事实上，飞机在地面上反而更危险。因为飞机在地面上，生锈、故障、零件老化的速度，比在空中飞行时快很多。我后来想想，对啊，很有道理，

因为飞机正是为了在空中飞行而生的，就像人类是为了活出心中的梦想而生的。所以人生在世最悲哀的，也许就是一辈子在陆上行走，我们的心从未起飞过。

大部分的人都会怕遭小偷，他们会在半夜潜入你的家里偷东西。但你的心里其实也有一位小偷，专偷你的梦想，他的名字就是“怀疑”！

如果你看到他请马上报警，别让他接近孩子——因为他是通缉犯，他杀过的梦想比失败还多！他戴着各种假面具，就像个病毒，会让人盲目、分裂、让人变成“有点哥”。

“有点”是非常危险的，你知道什么是“有点”吧，社会上不乏这种凡事都“有点”的人，有点想要转换跑道，有点像要考一百分，有点想要好身材

……

这是很简单的问题，如果你凡事都只是“有点”想，也许你想要的目标只会“有点”能达到。

你的梦想是什么？是什么点燃了梦想的火花？你不能只是有点想，你“必须”用生命去追求！ 

过程会很艰辛吗？是的，会很艰辛，没有捷径，你会跌倒许多次，但是有谁回去在意几次。你只要记得一件事，世界上没有平滑的山，谁想要登上山顶，谁就必须先爬过陡峭的山脊。 

有时你会倍感压力，你会心灰意冷，但让我告诉你，大导演斯蒂芬·斯皮尔伯格曾三度被大学拒绝，三次，但他没有放弃！

著名主持人欧普拉被电视公司开除，说她不适合进入电视圈，但她没有放弃！天后碧昂斯曾被评说不会唱歌，她还曾罹患忧郁症，但她没有放弃！ 

煎熬与批评都是成就非凡的先决条件，这就是这个世界运行的法则，没有一个人会不例外，因为有痛苦才是人生。但你可以选择痛苦的种类，是迈向成功的痛苦，还是遗憾终生的痛苦。

想听听我的建议吗？做，就对了！人生就是上天赐予给我们的礼物，所以别搞砸了。过去无法定义你这个人，因为未来的每一刻你都是全新的自己，所以请把握当下。

有时你必须先试着跳跃，才能在坠下的过程中羽翼渐丰。你必须在时间结束前出手，因为人生没有加时赛，也无法重来。 

我知道我听起来像是在唠叨说教，如果你不善用这份礼物，那么你不仅对不起你自己，

也是对不起全世界。所以，你的心中埋藏着什么新发明、新点子、新技能，你能够带给这个世界。世界也是一首歌曲，在这首歌里每个人都是歌手，所以拿起麦克风、鼓起勇气，在这人生的舞台上卖力演唱。

你或许无法回到过去重新开始，但你可以从现在开心创造崭新的未来。

It is not death most people are afraid of.
It is getting to the end of life, only to realize that you never truly lived.
There was a study done, a hospital study on 100 elderly people facing death close to their last breath. They were asked to reflect about their life’s biggest regret.
Nearly all of them said they regretted not the things they did but the things they didn’t do.
The risks they never took the dreams they didn’t pursue.
I ask you would your last words be; if only I had – hey, you wake up.
Why do you exist? Life is not meant to simply work, wait for the weekend and pay rent. No, no I don’t know much. But I know this every person on this earth has a gift.
And I apologized to the black community but I can no longer pretend Martin Luther King.
That man never had a dream, that dream had him.

See people don’t choose dreams, dreams choose them. So the question I’m getting to is, do you have the courage to grab the dream that picked you?
That befit you and grips you; or will you let it get away and slip through?

You know I learned a fact about airplanes the other day. This was – this was so surprising to see, I was talking to a pilot and he told me that many of his passengers think planes are dangerous to fly in. But he said actually, it is a lot more dangerous for a plane to stay on the ground. I say what? Like how does that sound what he said, he said because on the ground. The plane starts to rust.

Malfunction and wear, much faster than it ever would if it was in the air. As I walked away I thought, yeah, makes total sense because planes were built to live in the skies. And every person was built to live out the dream they have inside. So it is perhaps the saddest loss to live a life on the ground without ever taking off.

See most of us are afraid of the thief, they comes in the night to steal all of our things. But there is a thief in your mind who is after your dreams. His name is doubt.

If you see him call the cops and keep him away from the kids because he is wanted for murder. So he has killed more dreams than failure ever did. He wears many disguises and like a virus will leave you blinded, divided and turn you into a kinda.

See kinda is lethal. You know what kinda is? There is a lot of kinda people, you kinda want a career change, you kinda want to get straight A’s, you kinda want to get in shape. Simple math, no numbers to crunch. If you kinda want something, then you will kinda get the results you want.

What is your dream? What ignites that spark. You can’t kinda want that, you got to want it with every part of your whole heart. Will you struggle? Yeah, yeah… you will struggle, no way around it. You will fall many times, but who’s counting? Just remember, there’s no such thing as a smooth mountain.

If you want to make it to the top then, there are sharp ridges that have to be stepped over. There will be times you get stressed and things you get depressed over. But let me tell you something. Steven Spielberg was rejected from film school three times, three times but he kept going.

The television execs fired Oprah said she was unfit for TV but she kept going. Critics told Beyoncé that she couldn’t sing she went through depression. But she kept going.


Struggle and criticisms are prerequisites for greatness. That is the law of this universe and no one escapes it. Because pain is life but you can choose what type? Either the pain on the road to success or the pain of being haunted with regret.

You want my advice. Don’t think twice.

We have been given a gift that we call life.

So don’t blow it. You’re not defined by your past instead you were born anew in each moment. So own it now.

Sometimes you’ve got to leap. And grow your wings on the way down. You better get the shot off before the clock runs out because there is ain’t no over time in life, no do over. And I know what sound like I’m preaching on speaking with force but if you don’t use your gift then you sell not only yourself, but the whole world. Short.

So what invention that you have buried in your mind? What idea?
What cure? What skill did you have inside to bring out to this universe?

Uni meaning one, verse meaning song, you have a part to play in this song.

So grab that microphone and be brave. Sing your heart out on life’s stage. You cannot go back and make a brand new beginning. But you can start now and make a brand new ending.

 “有点”是非常危险的，你知道什么是“有点”吧？事实上有很多这种凡事都“有点”的人，“有点”想要转换跑道，“有点”想要考一百分，“有点”想要有好身材，这是很简单的数学问题，如果你凡事都只是“有点”想，你也只会“有点”达到你想要的目标。

你的梦想是什么？是什么点燃了梦想的火花？你不能只是有点想要，你必须用生命去追求，过程会很艰辛吗？是的，会很艰辛，没有捷径，你会跌倒许多次，但有谁在意几次，你只要记得一件事，世界上没有平滑的山，谁想要登上山顶，谁就必须先爬过陡峭的山脊。

有时你会备感压力，你会灰心丧志，但让我告诉你，大导演史蒂芬史艾柏曾三度被影视学院拒绝，三次，但他没有放弃。名主持人欧普拉被电视公司开除，说她不适合进入电视圈，但她没有放弃。天后碧昂丝曾被乐评说她不会唱歌，她还曾罹患忧郁症，但她没有放弃。

煎熬与批评都是成就非凡的先决条件，这就是这个世界运行的法则，谁都不例外，因为有痛苦才是人生，但你可以选择痛苦的种类，是迈向成功的痛苦，还是遗憾终生的痛苦。

想听听我的建议吗？做就对了！

人生就是上帝赐予我们的礼物，所以别搞砸了，过去无法定义你这个人，因为未来的每一刻你都是全新的自己，所以请把握现在，有时你必须先试着跳跃，才能在坠下的过程中飞翼渐丰。

你必须在时间结束前出手，因为人生没有延长赛，也无法重来，如果你不善用这份礼物，那么你不仅是看不起你自己，也是看不起全世界。
