54. Be Crazy about Your Dream

54. 为你的梦想而疯狂

I think it is often easier to make progress on mega-ambitious dreams. I know that sounds completely nuts. But, since no one else is crazy enough to do it, you have little competition. There are so few people this crazy that I feel like I know them all by first name. They all travel as if they are pack dogs and stick to each other like glue. The best people want to work the big challenges. That is what happened with Google. Our mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible: and useful. How can that not get you excited ? But we almost didn't start Google because my co-founder Sergey and I were too worried about dropping out of our Ph.D. program.

我认为，实现雄心勃勃的梦想更为容易，我知道这听起来是一派胡言。既然没有人能疯狂到做这件事情，你也不可能完成。很少有人这么疯狂，而这些人的名字我们都知道。他们勇敢前行，彼此吸引。最优秀的人就希望挑战。这就是谷歌所面临的。我们的使命就是组织全球的信息，使其随手可得，随处可用。这难道不会让大家兴奋吗?但是我们真的不想启动谷歌，因为我和联合创始人Sergey都太担心拿不到博士学位。

You are probably on the right track if you feel like a sidewalk worm during a rainstorm! That is about how we felt after we maxed out three credit cards buying hard disks off the back of a truck. That was the first hardware for Google. What is the one sentence summary of how you change the world? Always work hard on something uncomfortably exciting!

如果你感觉自己像是暴风雨中人行道上的拯蚓，那么你很可能走上了一条正确的道路。这就是我们刷爆了三张信用卡，从一辆敞篷货车中买了硬盘后的感觉。这也是谷歌最早的硬件。如果用一句话总结，如何改变世界，那就是在某种极度兴奋的事业上发奋努力。

Overall, I know it seems like the world is crumbling out there, but it is actually a great time in your life to get a little crazy, follow your curiosity, and be ambitious about it Don't give up on your dreams. The world needs you all!

总而言之，我知道这个世界看起来已支离破碎，但这是一个伟大的时代，在你的一生中可以疯狂些，追随你的好奇心，积极进取。不要放弃你的梦想。世界需要你们。
