对我们来说,这是一个非常激动人心的时刻;在我的团队名单中,只有寥寥几人属于你们这些人。
We're seven away, and we've got so many people celebrating with us.
我们落后七分,但有很多人在和我们一起庆祝。
It's awesome.
太棒了!
We're
我们正在……
going to celebrate, and we'll see you in our next celebration.
我们要去庆祝一番,下次聚会时再见吧!

I am the very place to present to you who won this Diamond Play Club.
我就是那个向各位宣布谁赢得了这个“Diamond Play Club”奖项的人。
What could
……会是什么呢?
happen if we took a leap and chased our wildest dreams?
如果我们勇敢地迈出一步,去追逐自己最疯狂的梦想,会发生什么呢?
11 years ago, as a few strangers who had just become friends, we began asking ourselves that question and testing one grand hypothesis.
11年前,当我们还只是几个刚刚成为朋友的陌生人时,我们开始自问这个问题,并尝试验证一个重要的假设。
What if, when fear or discomfort told us to turn away from something that mattered, we embraced it and said yes instead?
如果当恐惧或不安让我们想要远离那些对我们来说很重要的事物时,我们选择拥抱它们、并选择接受它们,会怎么样呢?
More than 500 adventurers across 100 countries and 10 million of you later,
来自100个国家的500多名冒险家参与了这项活动;后来,还有超过1000万人加入了他们的行列。
that one life -changing decision took us on a journey that none of us could ever have imagined.
那个改变我们一生的决定,将我们带入了一段连我们任何人都无法想象的旅程之中。
We're still learning, and we're still rediscovering every single day what it means to live in that way.
我们仍在不断学习,每天都在重新领悟以那种方式生活究竟意味着什么。
A more open way of living, one where we understand that seeking discomfort expands the realm of possibilities in our lives.
这是一种更加开放的生活方式——在这种生活方式中,我们认识到:主动去面对那些“不舒服”的经历(或挑战),实际上能够拓展我们生活中的可能性。
Where we choose to believe that most people are good, where we help each other simply because another human needs it,
在我们选择相信大多数人都是善良的、在我们仅仅因为他人需要帮助就主动伸出援手的时候……
and where we recognize that sometimes a single decision can change the direction of our lives.
我们也会意识到:有时候,一个简单的决定就足以改变我们的人生轨迹。
Because yes theory does not mean saying yes to everything, which would leave us equally directionless, but to say that intentional yes,
因为理论并不意味着对所有事情都表示赞同(否则我们同样会迷失方向);而是指那些经过深思熟虑后做出的、带有明确目的的“赞同”行为。
which requires us to trust our intuition and moves us closer to how we truly want to live.
这要求我们相信自己的直觉,让我们更接近自己真正想要的生活方式。
And by doing so, we become the authors of our own lives.
通过这样做,我们成为了自己生命的创造者。
But somewhere along the way, the stories of how you embraced this philosophy started coming back to us.
但在这个过程中,关于你们是如何接受并践行这一哲学理念的故事,开始陆续传回我们耳中。
A trip you took that changed your view of the world, a dream you chased that brought you to places you never imagined,
那次旅行改变了你对世界的看法;那个你追逐的梦想带你去了那些你从未想象过的地方。
or the limitation you had imposed on yourself that you decided was no longer going to hold you back.
又或者是你曾经对自己设定的那些限制——你如今决定不再让它们束缚自己了。
Those moments were yours.
那些时刻属于你。
Maybe one of our videos gave you a nudge, but you were the one who stepped out the door.
也许我们的某个视频给了你一些启发,但真正决定采取行动的人还是你自己。
And then something else happened.
然后,又发生了另一件事。
The new friend you made invited someone new.
你新结识的朋友又邀请了其他人来一起聚会。
A person who watched you take the lead got inspired by you and wondered what they might do.
一个看到你带头行动的人受到了你的启发,开始思考自己也可以做些什么。
A kindness that you received became one you passed on.
你收到的一份善意,后来也被你传递给了别人。
This massive ripple will never make it into a video.
这股巨大的“涟漪”永远不可能被记录到视频中。
We'll never know how far any one of those choices went.
我们永远无法知道那些选择中的每一个究竟带来了多大的影响(或结果)。
But after 11 years, we've come to believe that that's where the most meaningful part of yes theory lives.
但经过11年的时间,我们逐渐相信:正是在这一点上,“Yes”理论(即那些鼓励人们积极回应或做出肯定决定的理论)中最有意义的部分得以体现。
And everything you set in motion beyond what we could ever see.
以及你所引发的一切变化——那些超出了我们视觉范围、无法被直接察觉的进程。
Over 11 years, as we embraced this new perspective on life,
在过去的11年里,随着我们逐渐接受了这种新的生活观……
it gave us the privilege of going to extraordinary places and meeting people who changed the way we see the world.
这让我们有幸前往一些非凡的地方,结识那些改变了我们看待世界方式的人。
They taught us about courage, forgiveness, kindness, and what it means to be choosing love over fear.
他们教会了我们关于勇气、宽容、善良的意义,以及如何在恐惧与爱之间做出选择。
We carried their stories to you, and then you carried them into your own lives.
我们将他们的故事传递给了你们,而你们又将这些故事融入了自己的生活中。
When we reached 10 million subscribers, we tried to fully grasp what that number actually represented.
当我们拥有 1000 万订阅者时,我们试图真正理解这个数字所代表的含义。
10 million people.
1000万人。
