So as a rule, I try not to give anyone unsolicited advice unless they ask for it. I'll go into this more later. I guess I have been officially solicited in this situation, to impart whatever wisdom I might have and tell you the things that helped me so far in my life.
我的原则是，除非别人问起，我一般不会主动 给任何人提供建议，这个后面我会详细说到。在今天这个场合，我想我是受到正式邀请，将至今对我有帮助的人生经验和所谓的一点智慧倾囊相授。（意译）
unsolicited [ˌʌnsəˈlɪsɪtɪd] adj. 未经请求的；主动提供的 solicit [səˈlɪsɪt] v. 请求，索求，征求（意见）；<美兜售，推销；拉（客），卖淫 impart [ɪmˈpɑːrt] v. 传授，告知；赋予，给予
Please bear in mind that I, in no way, feel qualified to tell you what to do. You've worked and struggled and sacrificed and studied and dreamed your way here today and so, you know what you're doing. You'll do things differently than I did them and for different reasons.
请记住，我并不觉得自己有资格告诉你们该做什么。你们用自己的方式努力、奋斗、牺牲、学习和梦想走到今天，所以，你们知道你们在做什么。你们和我的行事方式不同，原因也不同。

So I won't tell you what to do cause no one likes that. I will, however, give you some life hacks I wish I knew when I was starting out my dreams of a career, and navigating life, love, pressure, choices, shame, hope and friendship.
所以，我不会告诉你们该怎么做，因为没人喜欢这样的建议。不过，我会告诉你们一些生活小窍门，我希望自己当初在职业生涯刚开始的时候，在经历生活、爱情、压力、抉择、羞愧、希望和友谊的时候就能够明白的小窍门。
The first of which is…life can be heavy, especially if you try to carry it all at once. Part of growing up and moving into new chapters of your life is about catch and release. What I mean by that is, knowing what things to keep, and what things to release.
第一点，生活可能是沉重的，尤其是当你试图背负一切的时候。成长和迈向人生新篇章的过程中，有一部分是关于把握与放下。我的意思是，你要知道哪些东西需要留下，哪些东西需要放手。
chapter [ˈtʃæptər] n. 章，回，篇；阶段，时期；分会，分部；v. 把……分成章节 release [rɪˈliːs] v. 释放，放走；使出院；解雇；放弃，让予；n. （人或动物的）释放，放出；排放，泄漏
You can't carry all things, all grudges, all updates on your ex, all enviable promotions your school bully got at the hedge fund his uncle started. Decide what is yours to hold and let the rest go. Oftentimes the good things in your life are lighter anyway, so there's more room for them. One toxic relationship can outweigh so many wonderful, simple joys. You get to pick what your life has time and room for. Be discerning.
你不能背负一切、背负所有的怨恨前行，无论是你前任的最新消息还是欺负你的校霸在他叔叔创办的对冲基金公司得到令人羡慕的晋升，这些你都不能背负。决定好什么是你不能放手的，其余的就随它去吧。生活中美好的事物往往是更轻松的，所以你有更多的空间来容纳它们。一段有毒的关系会让许多简单而美妙的快乐黯然失色。你可以选择让哪些事情填充你人生所拥有的时间和空间。要懂得辨别。
grudge [ɡrʌdʒ] n. 怨恨，嫌隙 v. （因不满而）不愿意给（或允许）；嫉恨 enviable [ˈenviəb(ə)l] adj. 值得羡慕的，引起忌妒的 promotion [prəˈmoʊʃ(ə)n] n. 提拔，晋升；促销，推销； 促进，提倡 toxic [ˈtɑːksɪk] adj. 有毒的，引起中毒的；极其有害的n. 有毒物质 outweigh [ˌaʊtˈweɪ] vt.
