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.

第四篇:英语演讲稿-失败之我见
My Definition of Failure
S-U-C-C-E-S-S.SUCCESS.Success is the catch-word of the times.It
goes without saying that almost all of us want to be successful.Like it or not, however, we must admit that it s not easy to achieve
success.More often than not, we have to deal with its opposite,namely failure.But first of all, what is failure? It is hard to define, because
dif-ferent people have different answers.However, as far as I'm
con-cerned, I think real failure is not to try hard.It's commendable that you set your mind on the best and
con-stantly strive for it.At many times, however, it's unlikely
that you'll do the best, because of the scarcity of No.1 and
because of the fact that the attainment of the very best involves
many things, some of which are beyond your expectation.In addition
to your own merit, that of your competitors also plays an important
part.So it is a more sensible, but no less commendable thing for
you to compete with yourself, not with others.You don t have to do
best.But you should always try to do your best in whatever you are
determined to do.If you have given it 100 percent, you are not a
failure, even though you are outplayed by others.Because you have
given it 100 percent, there s nothing to regret, nor is there any
need to blame yourself.Instead, you should give credit to yourself
for trying.I don t like finding excuses for our failures, because we haven t
failed at all.Take myself for example.Last year, I enrolled for
the Sports Meet in my university and competed in the 3,000-meter
race.I did this not because I m gifted in or good at running, but
because I wanted to fulfill a childhood dream.I had been an
in-competent student of physical education or p.E., ever since I was
a primary school student.As a weak student of p.E., I never got a
chance to participate in a sports meet.I envied my classmates who
were good at sports.I used to dream of becoming one of them and
displaying my skills in a sports meet.After I entered university, I
spent much of my spare time on physical exercises, such as running,the long jump.Although I can run much faster than before, I m not
capable of winning a prize or a good place in a campus-wide run-ning
competition.In spite of that, I still entered for the event,be-cause I wanted to challenge myself and fulfill my athletic dream.I could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not going in
for this race.But I chose to accept the challenge and face the
difficul-ties.I trained hard for the race, so when I came out last
but one in the competition, I didn t call my attempt a failure,because I had tried and struggled.Real failure is not to try hard.“I will forgive myself if I fail;
I won t forgive myself if I don't try”, because “It's better to have
fought and lost than not to fight at all”.Baron pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic
movement once said:“the most important thing in Olympic Games is not
to win, but to take part, just like the most important thing in life
is not the triumph, but the struggle.The essential thing is not to
have conquered, but to have fought well.”
But what if we did fail in something? Simple.First, don t panic,because failure is not the end of the world.As the English saying
goes, he who falls today may rise tomorrow.Second, try, try again,because nothing is really over until the moment we stop try-ing.So
long as we persist and never give up, we will succeed eventually.No failure is sweet.However, just as bitter medicine cures
sickness, failure may prove to be very instructive, so long as we
can put it in perspective.There is a saying that failure is the
mother of success.It's natural for us to get depressed for a
certain period of time, but we shouldn't inflate the importance of
our temporary setback and be disheartened by setbacks, even never
recover.We should be undaunted by failures and motivated to strive
even harder to succeed.Real failure is not to try hard.It is my firm belief that one's
earnest efforts will not be wasted.They will pay off either in
other ways or at other times.In this sense, today's failure
prepares tomorrow's triumph.At last, let's bear Goldsmith's remarks in mind:“Our greatest
glory consists not in never falling, but rising every time we fall。”
Thank you all!
第五篇:成功之我见(演讲稿)
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 them 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's 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
