my definition of success 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 princesss hand triumphantly.and the ending is always the same, finishing with the line and they
live happily every after. why arent 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 everyones 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 fathers 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 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. thats why we greatly admire stephen hawking, because, though
confined to a wheel chair, he has contributed greatly to the field of science. thank you. 译文:成功之我见 很久以前,有个国王,他的女儿貌美如花。老国王向所有来求婚的男士提出了三个任务作为挑战,而每一项任务都异常艰巨,几乎不可能完成。一天,来了一位年轻英俊的王子??”好了,下面的故事你们都知道了。三项任务在不同的版本中各不相同,但关键部分的情节都如出一辙:王子成功地过关,得到了公主的芳心。而故事的结局也都一样,最后一句都写道:“从此他们幸福地生活在一起。 为什么我们对如此美妙、如此不切实际,而我要说,如此缺乏想象力的东西这么乐此不疲呢?这样的故事又如何能够经历几代人的重复?我想,因为它是典型的成功的例子。故事的思想性很强,具有代表性。通过故事带给我们的启示,我们认识到了成功定义中的四个步骤;第一,目标的设定,有如故事里美丽的公主;第二,所遇到的困难和挑战,就像三大任务;第三,克服困难的过程,故事中青年经历重重难关可以作为象征;第四,就是成功的果实,如同幸福的婚姻。 这个故事不仅迎合了人们内心深处对成功的向往,也强调了过程和结果的不可分离。如果通往成功的道路崎岖曲折,那么成功的回报必然硕果累累,反之亦然。如果一个人继承了父辈的百万家产而生活得轻松富足,那么,即使在物质上,他也不能算是个成功人士,因为,他的财富并没有经过艰难困苦而获得。确切地说,“成功”这个词,不是个静态简单的定义。在我的理解中,真正意义上的成功是奋斗的过程和经历了奋斗之后赢得的满意的结果。请让我另举一例来阐明我的见解。 如果我们试
着改变足球的比赛规则,将球门放得很大,换下大卫〃希曼或其他任何的守门员,这样,随便哪个“大卫”,比如说,“大卫〃贝克汉姆”,就可以轻松进球,然而这样进一球却不能给他带来成功的震颤与喜悦。如果我们再改一改比赛规则,不让阿森纳队的防守来守门,那么,贝克汉姆只要动动手,其实就是抬抬脚就能进一球,那样的话、,实际上也没有什么比赛可言了,因为赢球的意义已经不存在了。在接受挑战、克服困难和经历磨难的过程中,“成功”的价值才得以丰满。取得成果的意义和所克服的艰难的程度成正比。所谓成功的概念不是一成不变的.而昙相对而言的,因为困难的性质也是相对意义上的。 正常人不费力气做成的事对于一个残疾人来说也许相当困难。获得了同正常人一样的能力,这个残疾人就获得了成功。这便是我们为什么崇敬史蒂芬〃霍金的原因—虽然行动不便,受到了轮椅的限制,他依然为科学界作出了巨大的贡献。 就我自己而言,生性羞涩,容易怯场,不得不鼓起非常大的勇气来参加此次的演讲比赛。我完全可以待在一边,不参加大学级别的比赛,而落得轻松自在。可是,我还是选择了接受这一挑战来面对困难。现在我来了,如果我能够得第一的话.这对我来说就是巨大的成功。如果,我是最后一名—我希望情况不是这样—但如果我真的是最后一名,我也不会认为这次的尝试是一次失败,反而我要把它当作一次真正的成功来庆贺,因为我一部分的目标是对自己性格的锻炼—更加坚强、勇敢地面对困难。对我来说,这标志着我在通向成功人生的漫漫征途中又向前迈进了一步,尽管是很小的一步,但是我确实通过
参与真正地获得了收益。 回到我们年轻英俊的王子和对“成功”的四步骤定义上吧,您也许已经注意到了财富、地位和名誉等这些世俗的标准在故事中并未提及,相反故事强调了克服重重困难的过程。古
代的智慧已经对成功的意义下了定义,这也是我的定义。 谢谢!篇二:关于成功的英语演讲稿 1.
success, as is known, is the pursuit of many ambitious people. it requires much of a person.
in my above all, one should be a person of strong perseverance. rome was not built in a day. on our long way to success, there are undoubtedly many difficulties
standing in the way. if we lose heart and give up halfway, nothing can be achieved. throughout history, we havehad many famous successful people in the world, of whom no one is weak-minded. take the great american scientist edison as an example, he tried experiment after experiment and had one failure after another before he finally invented the bulb, which lighted up the whole world. so we can conclude perseverance can surely be one of the secrets of success. furthermore, one needs to work hard to realize his dream just as the famous saying
goes “hard work leads to success”. look at these around us and we’ll find diligent people are always the favor of our society. they usually achieve more than expected. why do so many of our classmates of average intelligence go far ahead of others? hard work is definitely supposed to be the answer. and still, i hold that one must keep in pace with the informative world. there’s no denying that our world is changing every day. so one can never be locked
alone inside his own room, doing his research work and dedicated to book knowledge how can an isolated person be well-informed enough to go ahead of others? if so, that could be ridiculous. success is what one desires. so long as one is perseverant,
hard working and up-to-date, i am sure success is near at hand.
2.. .success is what?what is success? this is an old topic. however,however, everyone’s understanding of success is quite different. some people think that having money, house, car, a woman is successful. some people think that success is doing something that you want to do. some even deny the existence of success, he thinks this world is not successful, only the endless pursuit.so i want to make a new definition of success: success is something that people are very eager to do good things gained a sense of satisfaction and excitement. therefore, we do things, no matter big and small, as long as you want to do, and through your efforts made, and you happy, then you succeeded. do not look too far successful, they should not be too easy to see success, success requires your effort. those who believe that successful people do not exist, in fact, continue to define new goals, they will from
what they have done to get happy, they succeeded.( each other. if you follow these principles, you will certainly achieve remarkable
success in thefuture. in my opinion, success means achieving brilliant results in ones work, that is, making outstanding contributions to the development of the country and bringing happiness to the people. so my conclusion is that even if one has made great progress

些想要成功的人是必不可少的。 首先,毅力让人离成功越来越近。大多数人都想用不同的方式证明自己的价值。设定自己的目标,向着目标走,就可以使梦想成真了。然而,有些人设立了目标,却在困难面前妥协了将以失败告终。我认为成功与失败之间的差别是毅力。如果我们有毅力,即使我们不聪明,我们也会有很大的不同,但是如果我们没有毅力,我们注定是要失败的。我们都知道,爱迪生是一位伟大的发明家。但是,在他发明电灯泡前,他试了为数千次去找一个合适的线。让我们想象一下,如果他在第九百九十九次放弃了,那么他就不可能变得如此成功。因此,
我强烈认为,坚持就会成功。 其次,还有一种人是天生聪明的,他们是幸运的。然而,如果他们没有在实现目标之前努力工作,他们当然也会成为失败者。无论我们是否有天资,我们都应该努力工作以获得成功。我认为勤奋是成功的一个有效的方法,因为我相信的“付出和收获”。对于那些不努力工作的人最后是失败的了。在古代,有一个聪明的男孩,在他能说话的时候就可以作优秀的诗歌。当他的父亲发现他孩子的聪明时,他只是让孩子到处作诗歌来炫耀,却从不让他儿子学习别的知识。孩子长大后,人们把他遗忘了,因为他失去了创作能力,成为了普通人。从这件事中,我们可以看到,只有通过努力工作才能获得知识,拥有一个好的 anyway, i think perseverance and hard-working are both important in our way to success
for they enhance us and produce success 不管怎么样,我觉得毅力和勤奋在成功路上都是很重要的,因为他们提升我们并获得成功。

让我们想象一下,篇四:英语演讲:成功是什么 my what is success? definition of success what is success? nowadays, in the modern society, people always identify the concept of success with having a large sum of money, achieving fame, having a great career, possessing all the things they ever wanted. and for us, success is getting high marks in exams, winning games, making
new friends, and things like that. however, when we’ve gotten all the things above, we begin to think about the
same question: is there supposed to be more to life than all those things? definition of success is to realize our ideals and dreams, which are always inside our deepest hearts.
? as far as i’m concerned, one of the most important reasons for us to chase ideals and dreams is that they are eternal while money,
high positions or fame are not. in the process of realizing our dreams, we get both our body and souls tempted, meanwhile, we’re also enlightened by the most precious qualities of human-beings — love, patience, perseverance and the sense of responsibility. so this is what
success really means, and this is why success really matters. i believe, everyone here has his own interpretation of success, anyway, please believe in our dreams and ideals, please believe in ourselves, we, every one of us,
can lead a bright future and obtain success! ? 我国成功的定义是什么成功?如今,在现代社会中,人们总是确定的概念,成功了一大笔钱,实现了名气,有一个伟大的事业,拥有所有的东西都想要的。而对于我们来说,
成功是获得高分的考试,赢得比赛,成为新朋友,等等。 ? 然而,当我们已经得到所有的东西上面,我们开始思考同样的问题:是否有应该更多的生命比所有这些东西? ? 事实上,成功有不同的形式和定义。这取决于您所搜寻的项目在您的生命。运动员可能会发现成功的第一个达到的目标,一个音乐家可能会发现成功的最热门的安打,一个演员的成功可能会发现作为一个赢得奖项。但有一件事我相信,真正的和最
终取得成功的定义是要实 现我们的理想和梦想,它总是在我们最深切的心中。 ? 至于我而言,最重要的一个原因,
