每一個人對生活不一樣的追求，進而產生了人們心中不一樣的成功，故而成功的定義也顧不相同。下面是小編為大家收集關于成功的定義英語演講稿，歡迎借鑒參考。

　　成功的定義英文演講稿

　　My Definition of Success

　　“Once upon a time， there was a king who had a daughter as beautiful as a blooming rose. To all the suitors who came to the king's palace to ask for the hand of the princess, the old king assigned three tasks to be accomplished, each next to impossible. One day, into the king's palace came a handsome young prince..." Well, you know the rest. The three tasks may be different in different versions, but the main plot is always the same, with the prince claiming the princess's hand triumphantly.And the ending is always the same, finishing with the line "And they live happily every after."

　　Why aren't we tired of something so fanciful, so unrealistic, and, I would say, so unimaginative? How can a story like that endure generations of repetition`? Because, I think, it is a typical success story. It is highly philosophical and symbolic. By implication, we see a 4-step definition of success: 1 ) a goal to be set. as represented by the beautiful princess; 2 ) challenges to be met, as represented by the three tasks; 3 ) the process of surmounting difficulties, as represented by the ordeals the youth goes through; and 4 ) the reward of success, as represented by the happy marriage.

　　The story not only caters to everyone's inward yearning for success, but also emphasizes the inseparability of the process and the result. The reward of success will be much amplified if the path leading towards it is treacherous, and vice versa. If a person inherits his father's millions and leads an easy life, he is not a successful person even in material terms, because there are no difficulties involved in his achieving affluence. The term "success", to be sure. will not sit still for easy definition. But as I understand it, the true meaning of success entails a combination of both the process and the satisfactory result of an endeavor. To clarify my view, let me give another analogy.

　　If we changed the rules of football, greatly enlarged the goal and sent away David Seaman or any other goal keeper, so that another David, namely David Beckham, could score easily, then scoring would not give him the thrill of accomplishment and the joy that it brings. If we further changed the rules by not allowing Arsenal's defenders to defend, so that Beckham needed only to lift a finger, actually a toe, to score, then there would be no game at all, because the meaning of winning would have disappeared. In accepting the challenge, in surmounting the difficulties and in enduring the hardship, success acquires its value. The sense of attainment varies in proportion to the degree of difficulties on overcomes.

　　The concept of success is not constant but relative because the nature of difficulty is also relative. Something you do effortlessly might pose a great difficulty for a handicapped person. In acquiring the ability to do the same as you can, he or she achieve success. That's why we greatly admire Stephen Hawking, because, though confined to a wheel chair, he has contributed greatly to the field of science.

　　I myself, a rather shy person by nature who easily suffer from stage fright, had to pluck up great courage to take part in a speech contest like this. I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not entering the university level contest.But I chose to accept the challenge and to face the difficulties. Now here I am. If I come out first, it will be a great success for me. If I come out last-I hope this will not be the case-but if I come out last, I will not call my attempt a failure, but will also celebrate it as a true success, because part of my goal is my own character training-to do more assertive, to be brave in face of difficulties. For me, it is a meaningful step forward, small as it is, in the long journey toward the final success in my life, because I have truly gained by participating.

　　Let us return to our handsome young prince and the 4-step definition of success. You my have noticed that the usual worldly criteria of wealth, position and fame were not mentioned as part of the story, but rather, it emphasized the process of overcoming difficulties. The ancient wisdom had already defined the meaning of success, and this is my definition, too.

　　Thank you.

　　譯文:成功之我見

　　很久以前，有個國王，他的女兒貌美如花。老國王向所有來求婚的男士提出了三個任務作為挑戰(zhàn)，而每一項任務都異常艱巨，幾乎不可能完成。一天，來了一位年輕英俊的王子……”好了，下面的故事你們都知道了。三項任務在不同的版本中各不相同，但關鍵部分的情節(jié)都如出一轍:王子成功地過關，得到了公主的芳心。而故事的結局也都一樣，最后一句都寫道:“從此他們幸福地生活在一起。 為什么我們對如此美妙、如此不切實際,而我要說,如此缺乏想象力的東西這么樂此不疲呢?這樣的故事又如何能夠經歷幾代人的重復?我想，因為它是典型的成功的例子。故事的思想性很強，具有代表性。通過故事帶給我們的啟示，我們認識到了成功定義中的四個步驟;第一，目標的設定，有如故事里美麗的公主;第二，所遇到的困難和挑戰(zhàn)，就像三大任務;第三，克服困難的過程，故事中青年經歷重重難關可以作為象征;第四，就是成功的果實，如同幸福的婚姻。 這個故事不僅迎合了人們內心深處對成功的向往，也強調了過程和結果的不可分離。如果通往成功的道路崎嶇曲折，那么成功的回報必然碩果累累，反之亦然。如果一個人繼承了父輩的百萬家產而生活得輕松富足，那么，即使在物質上，他也不能算是個成功人士，因為，他的財富并沒有經過艱難困苦而獲得。確切地說，“成功”這個詞，不是個靜態(tài)簡單的定義。在我的理解中，真正意義上的成功是奮斗的過程和經歷了奮斗之后贏得的滿意的結果。請讓我另舉一例來闡明我的見解。 如果我們試著改變足球的比賽規(guī)則，將球門放得很大，換下大衛(wèi)·希曼或其他任何的守門員，這樣，隨便哪個“大衛(wèi)”，比如說，“大衛(wèi)·貝克漢姆”，就可以輕松進球，然而這樣進一球卻不能給他帶來成功的震顫與喜悅。如果我們再改一改比賽規(guī)則，不讓阿森納隊的防守來守門，那么，貝克漢姆只要動動手，其實就是抬抬腳就能進一球，那樣的話、，實際上也沒有什么比賽可言了，因為贏球的意義已經不存在了。在接受挑戰(zhàn)、克服困難和經歷磨難的過程中，“成功”的價值才得以豐滿。取得成果的意義和所克服的艱難的程度成正比。所謂成功的概念不是一成不變的.而曇相對而言的,因為困難的性質也是相對意義上的。 正常人不費力氣做成的事對于一個殘疾人來說也許相當困難。獲得了同正常人一樣的能力，這個殘疾人就獲得了成功。這便是我們?yōu)槭裁闯缇词返俜?middot;霍金的原因—雖然行動不便，受到了輪椅的限制，他依然為科學界作出了巨大的貢獻。 就我自己而言，生性羞澀，容易怯場，不得不鼓起非常大的勇氣來參加此次的演講比賽。我完全可以待在一邊，不參加大學級別的比賽，而落得輕松自在?？墒牵疫€是選擇了接受這一挑戰(zhàn)來面對困難?，F在我來了，如果我能夠得第一的話.這對我來說就是巨大的成功。如果，我是最后一名—我希望情況不是這樣—但如果我真的是最后一名，我也不會認為這次的嘗試是一次失敗，反而我要把它當作一次真正的成功來慶賀，因為我一部分的目標是對自己性格的鍛煉—更加堅強、勇敢地面對困難。對我來說，這標志著我在通向成功人生的漫漫征途中又向前邁進了一步，盡管是很小的一步，但是我確實通過參與真正地獲得了收益。

　　回到我們年輕英俊的王子和對“成功”的四步驟定義上吧，您也許已經注意到了財富、地位和名譽等這些世俗的標準在故事中并未提及，相反故事強調了克服重重困難的過程。古代的智慧已經對成功的意義下了定義，這也是我的定義。

　　謝謝!

　　today i am very glad to be here to share with you my ideas of success. what is success? it is what everyone is longing for.sometimes success would be rather simple. winning a game is success; getting a high grade in the exam is success; making a new friend is success; even now i am standing here giving my speech is somehow also success.

　　however, as a person’s whole life is concerned, success becomes very

　　complicated. is fortune success? is fame success? is high social status success? no, i don’t think so. i believe success is the realization of people’s hopes and ideals.nowadays, in the modern society there are many people who are regarded as the successful. and the most obvious characteristics of hem are money, high position and luxurious life. so most people believe that s success and all that they do is for this purpose. but the problem is wether it is real success. we all know there are always more money, higher position and better condition in front of us. if we keep chasing them, where is the end? what will satisfy us at last? therefore, we can see, to get the real success we must need something inside, which is the realization of people’ hopes and ideals.

　　different people have different ideas about success; cause people’s hopes and ideas vary from one another. but i am sure every success is dear to everybody, cause it is not easy to come by, cause in the process of our striving for success, we got both our body and soul tempted, meanwhile we are enlightened by the most valuable qualities of human beings: love, patient, courage and sense of responsibility. these are the best treasures. so now i am very proud that i have this opportunity to stand here speaking to all of you. it is my success, cause i raise up to challenge my hope.

　　what is success? everyone has his own interpretation as i do. but i am sure every success leads to an ever-brighter future. so ladies and gentlemen, believe in our hopes, believe in ourselves, we, every one of us, can make a successful life!

　　wish you all good success

　　今天我很高興來到這里與你們分享我的想法的成功。什么是成功?這是每個人都渴望。有時成功是相當簡單。贏得一場比賽是成功,獲得優(yōu)質的考試成功;做一個新朋友是成功,甚至我現在站在這里給我的演講也以某種方式成功。

　　然而,隨著一個人的一生來說,成功變得非常

　　復雜。是財富的成功?名人的成功嗎?高社會地位的成功?不,我不這么認為。我相信成功是實現人民的希望和理想。如今,在現代社會有很多人被認為是成功的。和下擺的最明顯的特征是錢,高位置和奢侈的生活。所以大多數人認為成功和他們做的一切是為了這個目的。但問題是是否它是真正的成功。我們都知道總有更多的錢,較高的位置和更好的條件在我們面前。如果我們繼續(xù)追逐,盡頭在哪里?最后將滿足我們什么?因此,我們可以看到,獲得真正的成功,我們必須需要的東西在里面,這是人們的希望和理想的實現。

　　不同的人有不同的想法關于成功;引起人們的希望和想法不同。但是我相信每一個成功是親愛的大家,因為它是不容易的,因為在我們追求成功的過程中,我們有兩個我們的身體和靈魂的誘惑,與此同時我們開明的人類的最寶貴的品質:愛、耐心、勇氣和責任感。這些是最好的財富。現在我很自豪,因為我有機會站在這里跟大家說話。這是我的成功,因為我舉起來挑戰(zhàn)我的希望。

　　什么是成功?每個人都有自己的解釋和我一樣。但我相信每一個成功導致了浦江的未來。所以,女士們,先生們,相信我們的希望,相信自己,我們,我們每一個人,可以讓一個成功的人生!

　　祝你一切美好的成功!

　　英語演講稿成功的定義篇

　　Have you ever thought why there are very few great people? I think there is probably only one great person out of 10,000 at best, and most probably much less than that. But why? Most people want to be great, right? Why are there only very few of them? Here is the reason:

　　你有沒有想過為什么成功的人那么少?我想，大概在一萬個人里有一個人能獲得成功就很好了。但是為什么會這樣呢?我們大多數人都渴望成功，不是嗎?那為什么成功的人還是屈指可數呢?原因如下：

　　Most people do not pay the price of greatness.

　　大多數人沒有為成功付出代價。

　　I think this one is quite obvious. Now, the next question is: why not? If there are so many people who want to be great, why only very few of them actually pay the price? The answer to these questions explains the difference between the almost 100% people who want to be great and the much less than 0.01% who actually be so.

　　這個答案顯而易見。那么，就引出了下一個問題：為什么有那么多人想要成功，而只有很少數的人愿意為成功付出代價呢?這個問題的答案就能把0.01%真正獲得成功的人和幾乎是100%想要獲得成功的人給區(qū)分開來。

　　The reason why very few people actually pay the price is this: The road to greatness is continuously painful for long time.

　　極少數人愿意為成功付出代價的真正原因在于：成功之路須要長期痛苦的堅持。

　　Greatness requires sacrifices and there is no sacrifice without pain. The kind of sacrifices required for greatness is the ones that make the process continuously painful for long time. If you want to be good it will be painful only every now and then, and many people can still handle it. But being great is a totally different level. The pain is much deeper and it is continuous. Very few people can endure this kind of pain and that’s why there are very few great people. Most people naturally choose things that bring pleasures to them. It’s unnatural to choose pain over pleasure, let alone doing it continuously for long time.

　　成功須要犧牲，而所有的犧牲都伴隨著痛苦。獲得成功所需要的犧牲是長期的、痛苦的。如果你的目標是優(yōu)秀，那可能只是“短痛”而已，很多人還是可以承受得住的。但是，想要成功，那么所需要承受得就是“長痛”了。大多數人會選擇能給自己帶來快樂的事物，這是自然的選擇。很少有人會拋開快樂去選擇痛苦，更不用說是長期的痛苦了。

　　But that’s what I believe is the secret to greatness: The secret to greatness is choosing pain over pleasures continuously for long time.

　　但是正是上述原因讓我相信，成功的秘密就在于：選擇痛苦而不是快樂，并能夠長期堅持承受痛苦。
