阿诺德·施瓦辛格的演讲（拼命才会优秀，自律才会自由~）

灌点鸡汤~

以下为施瓦辛格2018年的演讲内容~

I went to college, I went and worked out 5 hours a day, and I was working in construction. Because in those days in bodybuilding there was no money. I didn’t have the money for food supplements or anything, so I had to go to work, so I worked in construction. I went to college and worked out in a gym, and at night from 8 o’clock at night to 12 midnight. I went to acting class 4 times a week. I did all that, there was not one single minute I wasted. This is why I’m standing here today.

At the age of 20 I went to London, and I won the MR.UNIVERSE contest as the youngest MR.UNIVERSE ever. And it was because I had a goal, if you don’t have a vision of where you’re going, if you don’t have a goal where to go, you drift around and never end up anywhere. 74% of people hate their job in America, the majority of people don’t like what they’re doing, they are not doing because they had a goal and followed the goal, they just aimlessly drift around and there is a job opening, so they get the job because they need to work. But then when you work it is a chore, it’s work, it’s not fun, so only a quarter of people really enjoy with they’re doing in life.

🎈

People always ask me, when they see me in the gam, in the pumping iron days, they say why is is you are working out so hard, 5 hours a day, 6 hours a day, and you always have a smile on your face. The others are working out just as hard as you do, and they look sour in the face. Why is that, I told people all the time I am shooting for a goal. In front of me is the MR.UNIVERSE title, so every rep that I do gets me close to accomplishing that goal. To make this goal, this vision a reality. Every single set that I do, every repetition of weight that I lift will get me a step to turning this goal into a reality. So I couldn’t wait to do another 500 pound squat, I couldn’t wait to do another 500 pound bench press, I couldn’t wait to do another 2000 sit-ups, I couldn’t wait for the next exercise. So let me tell you that visualising your goal and going after it makes it fun, you got to have a purpose no matter what you do in life, you got to have a purpose.

Muhammad Ali worked his butt off, I saw it first hand, I remember there was a sportsa writer in the gym, when Ali was working out doing sit-ups, he asked Ali : “How many sit-ups you do?” And he said, I don’t start counting until it hurts. Now think about that, he doesn’t start counting sit-ups until he feels pain, that’s when he starts counting. That is working hard. So you can’t get around the hard work, it doesn’t matter who you are, work your ass off. There is no magic pill, there is no magic out there. You can not get around, you have to work and work. It’s all hard work.

It’s drives me crazy when people say they don’t have enough time to go to the gym 45 minutes a day and workout, or to do something for 45 minutes to an hour a day to improve, either physically improve or mentally improve. Imaging you read 1 hour a day about history, how much would you learn after 365 hours in one year? Imaging if you study the history of musicians and composers, how much you’d know? Imaging if you worked on some business you wanted to develop, every day for an hour, Imaging how much further along you’d go? So it drives me nuts when people say “We don’t have the time”. You have 24 hours a day, we sleep 6 hours a day, so it still gives you 18 hours, there’s people shaking their head saying, “I don’t sleep 6 hours, I sleep 8 hours”, well, just sleep faster. So we 18 hours a day, the average person works 8-10 hours, let’s assume it’s 10 hours so we have 8 hours left, then you travel around an hour a day, maybe 2 hours a day, so now you still have 6 hours left. What do you do with there 6 hours? What do you do with there 6 hours? Eat a little bit? schmooze a little bit? talk a little bit to people? Can you see how much time is available? If you organize your day, so you got to work hard.

I hate plan B, I’ll tell you why? Because we have so many doubters, the no sayers, we have so many people who say no you can’t do it it’s impossible. That is ok because we just turn off. As I said earlier we hear the no being a yes. "You can’t do it " means you can do it. So it’s possible to do that amongst all the negative people around you, but when you start doubting yourself, that’s very dangerous, because now what you’re basically saying is if my plan does not work I have a fall back plan, a plan B. That means you’re thinking about plan B, every thought you put into plan B, you’ re taking away that thought and energy away from plan A. It is very important to understand that we function better if there is no safety net, because plan B becomes A safety net. If I fall then I fall and I get picked back up, and I have something else there and it will protect me, that’ s not good. People perform better when there is no safety net, people perform better in sports and everything else when there is no plan B. I’m telling you that I’ve never had a plan B, I made a full commitment to be a bodybuilding champion. I made a full commitment that I’ll be in America, I made a full commitment that I’m going to get into show business, and I’m going to be a leading man no matter what it takes, I will do the work. I will do the work over and over and over until I get it. The same was in politics and everything like that. To me it is very dangerous to have a plan B, because you are cutting yourself off form your chance of really succeeding.

🎈

🎈

The main reason people want a plan B is because they are worried about failing. “What if I fall then I won’t have anything else”, Let me tell you something don’t afraid of failing, because there is nothing wrong with failing, you have to fall in order to climb that ladder. There is no one that doesn’t fail. Michael Jordan said in one of his interviews, when told " You’re unbelievable, you’re the greatest basketball player of all time, tell me about that ", Michael Jordan said “You are just mentioning the successes, for me to become the greatest basketball player, I missed 9000 shots when I was playing basketball in the NBA games”. So during these games where he was so successful, he missed 9000 shots, does it make him a failure? No, he is one of the greatest basketball players of all time, but he failed 9000 shots. Do you understand? We all fail, it’s okay. What’s not okay is when you fail and you stay down, whoever stays down is a loser, winners will fail and get up, fail and get up. You always get up, that is a winner.

I failed in bodybuilding, I lost bodybuilding competitions., I lost weight lifting competitions, I had movies that went into the toilet, and were terrible and got the worst reviews. In politics I remember I had many of the initiatives on the ballot, and we lost, my approval rating in California went down to 28%, then it went back up again and I won again the governership. Hey, we all lose, we all have losses, It’s okay, that’s why I say, don’t be worried about losing, because when you are afraid of losing then you get frozen, you get stiff and you’re not relaxed. In order to perform well in anything if it’s in boxing or your job or with your thinking, it’s only happening when you relax, so relax, it’s okay to fail, let’s just go all out and give it everything you’ve got, that’s what it’s all about, so don’t be afraid to fail.
