英语演讲稿：My Definition of Success
Is your definition of success a fatal mistake?
For some, success is defined in terms of the dollar
amount on a paycheck. For others, it's the title on their
business card. Others may define success in terms of the
accolades and awards they have won.
But the problem with how people define success these
days is that when they're forced to change it, they
can't. Look at the businessmen who have committed suicide
because they have lost fortunes. Consider the workers who
are fired and then go back to work, armed with a gun.
Extreme cases, sure. Not everyone considers killing
themselves or others when their livelihood is threatened.
But it does point out that maybe we need to revisit our
own definition of success.
Start by completing this definition: "Success to me
is…"
After you complete this sentence, then review it and
determine if you're on the path to achieving that
success. If you were to lose your job or money tomorrow,
1
would your definition of success still be valid? Or,
would you consider yourself a failure?
I remember a job where I worked long, stressful hours
and often labored for a boss who had mood swings like a
freaking roller coaster. It made for a tense situation,
to say the least. One day I was talking to a co-worker
and the exhaustion was overwhelming. I felt so
dissatisfied, frustrated and even angry. Then it hit me:
If I died that day, I didn't want the only thing on my
tombstone to be "Always met her deadlines."
Ugh, I remember thinking. I wanted my life to account
for more than that. It wasn't until months later that I
started making some real changes in my life, changes that
I know made me much better able to balance my life and
devote time and effort to more than my job.
Right now, times are tough and some of us are
beginning to panic. But I think it's a golden opportunity
to really think about what is important in your life, and
weed out the things that don't really matter.
You are the one who must define what success is to
you. One thing I know for sure: You are more than a job
title, you are worth more than a number on a paycheck and
you are more than an award to hang on your wall. Is the
2
destination you have in mind worth the road you must
travel? Only you can answer that.

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
