So, my father used to always tell
我父亲过去总是这么说……
me something which I want to share with you, that why do you want to fit inside a glass slipper?
我有一些想和大家分享的事情……那么，你们为什么非要努力去符合“玻璃鞋”的标准（即那些严格、苛刻的要求）呢？
You know, like we were told, like Cinderella did, why do you want to fit inside a glass slipper when you can shatter the glass ceiling?
你知道的，就像我们被告知的那样，就像灰姑娘所做的那样——既然你可以打破那些阻碍你的“玻璃天花板”，为什么还要勉强去适应那些狭小的空间（比如玻璃鞋的尺寸）呢？
I want to tell you a little secret.
我想告诉你一个小小的秘密。
I'm not very fond of this phrase, breaking the glass ceiling.
我不太喜欢这个表达——“打破玻璃天花板”（即消除阻碍女性晋升的障碍）。
Why does it annoy me?
为什么这会让我感到恼火呢？
Because it takes the context of everything that I have done.
因为这需要结合我之前所做的一切来理解。
All my achievements, all my hard work
我所有的成就，我所有的辛勤付出……
and puts it into a box as if my ambition was that I want to find a glass ceiling and break it.
然后把那个东西放进盒子里，仿佛我的野心就是去寻找所谓的“玻璃天花板”并把它打破似的。
Not at all.
一点也不。
To be really honest, I was never on a mission to break, to shatter anything.
说实话，我从来都没有过想要破坏或摧毁任何东西的念头。
All I wanted was to chase my dreams, my ambitions.
我所想要的，只是去追逐自己的梦想和抱负。
I wanted to evolve.
我想让自己不断进步、不断发展。
I wanted to become the best version of me, that I could be.
我想成为最好的自己——那个我能够成为的最好的自己。
And of course, in Priyanka Chopra style, along the way, I wanted to smash and break every obstacle that came my way,
当然，按照普里扬卡·乔普拉的风格，我在前进的过程中想要摧毁所有挡在我面前的障碍。
which I did.
我确实这么做了。
But that does not mean that the glass ceiling doesn't exist.
但这并不意味着“玻璃天花板”这种现象并不存在。
Of course, it exists.
当然，它是存在的。
And countless of women and men, mostly women run into it in their professional and personal lives.
无数男女（其中绝大多数是女性）在他们的职业和生活中都会遇到这种情况。
And I'm sure a lot of you can vouch for that right now.
我相信，现在在座的很多人都可以为此作证。
The Oxford dictionary definition of the glass
《牛津词典》中对“glass”（玻璃）的定义：
ceiling is an unacknowledged barrier to advancement in a profession, especially affecting women and members of minorities from rising beyond a certain level in a hierarchy.
在职业发展过程中，所谓的“天花板”（即某些无形障碍）实际上是一个被忽视的问题；这种障碍尤其影响女性以及少数族裔成员，使他们难以在组织结构中晋升到更高的职位。
And this metaphor was first coined by feminists in reference to barriers in the careers of high achieving women.
这个比喻最初是由女权主义者提出的，用来形容那些在事业上取得显著成就的女性所面临的种种障碍。
So, why did I choose it as my topic for today if I hated it so much?
那么，既然我如此讨厌这个话题，为什么还要选择它作为今天讨论的主题呢？
Because I hope through my experiences, I
因为我希望通过自己的经历，能够……
can present to you the tools to live your dream and to not make that glass ceiling that is defined by society,
我可以向你们提供一些工具，帮助你们实现自己的梦想，并打破那些由社会所设定的“玻璃天花板”（即那些限制个人发展的无形障碍）。
largely patriarchal, as your goal.
以建立一个主要遵循父权制的社会结构为目标。
I want you to aim higher, because you know you can, and it's honestly all I did.
我希望你能设定更高的目标，因为你知道自己有能力做到；说实话，这正是我一直所做的。
Every step of the way, all I did was set a higher standard.
在每一个阶段，我所做的就是不断设定更高的标准。
How did I get here?
我怎么会来到这里？
By being fierce, by being fearless, and by being flawed, completely and utterly flawed.
通过展现强烈的斗志、无畏的精神，以及承认自己存在的种种缺陷（这些缺陷是彻底而明显的）。
I'm not perfect.
我并不完美。
Like, none of us are.
其实，我们所有人都不属于那种人。
So, tonight I'm going to try and break it down for you a little bit in a slightly different way.
那么，今晚我打算用稍微不同的方式来为大家解释这个问题。
I present the twelve sure shot, sure fireways of becoming Priyanka Chopra.
下面我为大家介绍十二种绝对可靠的方法，帮助你成为普里扬卡·乔普拉（Priyanka Chopra）。
Would you like that?
你想要那个吗？
Sorry, I was just kidding.
对不起，我只是在开玩笑而已。
Because as millennials, we don't like to be told what to do.
作为千禧一代，我们不喜欢别人对我们指手画脚、告诉我们该做什么。
