Farewell speech English

Farewell to public speaking English, whether in the workplace or in life, the level and significance brought by public speaking to us are also to a great extent. This speech is of great significance to us. Let's share farewell speech English.

Farewell Speech English 1 —— NigelMarsh, CEO of Leo Boehner Communication Group in Australia, delivered an inspirational speech on his work at TED

I want to start with a simple request. I ask all of you here to think about it, you pathetic cowards, ask yourselves and look at your poor existence.

In fact, this is exactly what Saint Benedict suggested to believers in the 5th century. As you can imagine, they must have been quite surprised. And when I was 40 years old, I also decided to adopt and implement this suggestion. Before that, I was definitely a typical business elite-eating too much, drinking too much, working too hard and neglecting my family.

So I decided to try to change my life. I decided to try to solve a thorny problem: the balance between work and life. So I submitted my resignation and stayed at home with my wife and four sons for a year.

But that year, the only thing I learned about work-life balance was that if I didn't work, the problem would be solved. This really won't do, especially when you are short of money.

So I went back to work. In the past seven years, my struggle, study and writing have revolved around the theme of work-life balance. Today I want to share four points with you.

First: If we want to make substantial progress on this issue, then we need to have a sincere discussion.

But the problem is that on this issue, people are mostly immersed in meaningless arguments. Whether it's flexible working hours, casual wear policy on Friday or parental leave, these just further cover up the core problem, that is, some occupations and some career choices are totally incompatible with the lifestyle of getting along with family every day.

To solve any problem, we must first recognize our own situation. In fact, thousands of people are suffering from silent despair. They work day and night in jobs they hate, just to buy useless goods and win the envy of innocent neighbors.

In my opinion, wearing a denim T-shirt on Friday can't solve the key problem.

The second lesson I want to share is that we must face the reality: the government and companies will not solve this problem for us.

We can no longer look for foreign aid, but should assume the responsibility of controlling our own life trajectory as individuals. If you don't plan your life, others will plan it for you, and they often disagree with you about balanced treatment.

The most important point-this thing won't spread online, or I will be fired-the most important point is that you must never let commercial companies control your quality of life. I'm not just talking about bad companies-I call them slaughterhouses for the human soul. I mean all the companies.

Because the essence of a commercial company is to extract as much value as possible while trying to avoid responsibility. This is deeply rooted in the genes of commercial companies. They stand on it-including those good and kind companies.

On the one hand, it is a great and enlightening idea to set up a child care center in the workplace. On the other hand, it is also a nightmare; Because it means spending more time in the evil office. We must take responsibility, set and strengthen the boundaries in our lives.

The third point is that we must carefully consider what time unit to measure the balance we are trying to achieve.

When I was idle for a year, just before I returned to work, I sat down and drew an ideal blueprint for a perfect day.

The details are as follows: after enough sleep, wake up refreshed. Make love. Walk the dog. Have breakfast with your wife and children. Make love.

Take the children to school on the way to work. Work for three hours. Exercise with friends during lunch break. Work for another three hours. Have a drink with old friends in the bar in the afternoon. Go home to eat with your wife and children. Spend half an hour meditating. Make love. Walk the dog. Make love. Go to sleep.

How long do you think I can enjoy this life? Of course, we should be practical. You can't achieve all this in one day. We have to extend the time unit to measure the balance of our expectations, but this extension is not infinite.

For example, you'd better not say, "I will enjoy life when I retire, when my children are independent, when my wife has left me, when my health is not as good as before, and when I have no friends and hobbies." One day is too short and retirement is too long. There must be a compromise.

The fourth lesson: To achieve balance, we must adopt a "balanced" approach.

Last year, I had a friend who came to see me-she didn't mind me telling this story publicly-last year, she came to me and said:

"Nigel, I have read your book. I realized that my life was completely out of balance. It is completely occupied by endless work. I work 10 hours a day, and it takes 2 hours on the road. My interpersonal relationship always fails. There is nothing in my life except work. So I decided to cheer up and change my life. So I joined the health club. "

I don't mean to laugh at her, but a "healthy" office worker who works 10 hours a day will not make her more "balanced", but will only make her more "healthy". Fitness exercise is really good, but the meaning of life is actually very rich.

Intellectual life, emotional life and spiritual life. If we want to achieve balance, I think we should take all the above aspects into consideration-only 50 sit-ups are not enough.

This may seem quite daunting. People will say, "Come on, man, I don't even have time to exercise, and you want me to go to church and call my mother." I quite understand. I really understand that people are really difficult.

But two years ago, a little thing gave me a new perspective.

My wife is sitting there. One day, she called my office and said, "Nigel, you have to pick up our youngest son Harry from school." Because she was with three other children that night. So I got off work an hour early that afternoon and met Harry at the school gate. We went to the park, played on the swing for a while and played some stupid games.

Then I took him up the hill to a local cafe. We ordered tea and pizza and then went home. I gave him a bath and dressed him in Batman pajamas. Then I read him a chapter from James and the Flying Peach by Roald Dahl. Then I made the bed, sat him down, kissed his forehead and said, "Good night, man."

Then walk out of his bedroom. Just as I walked to the door, he called out "Dad". "What's the matter, man?" He said, "Dad, this is the best day of my life, the best day." Actually, I didn't do anything. I didn't take him to Disneyland or buy him a game console.

What I want to say is that small things are not small things. Achieving balance in your life doesn't mean that you have to subvert your life greatly. A little investment in the right place can greatly improve your interpersonal relationship and quality of life. Not only that, I think it can change the whole society.

Because, if many people live like this, then we can redefine the so-called "success" in society:

Success is no longer foolishly measured by the amount of property after death; Success should have a more balanced and thoughtful definition, that is, the realization of a better life.

Farewell Speech English 2 Wang Han is now a famous host. As a predecessor of life, he told us not to underestimate the power of action, but to take every step of life in a down-to-earth manner. No matter how hard life is, people who act will not be disappointed.

Hello, I'm Wang Han. A program host of Hunan TV Station. I have been a host for 18 years, and I have hosted programs for 18 years. I should be particularly familiar with such a stage, such lighting, such a familiar cameraman, such an audience and such an atmosphere. But today, the feeling of standing alone on this stage is wonderful, even a little strange. Fortunately, there are you and your dear audience friends. So I said that the host should stand on the stage like the spring breeze, so as to make everything on the stage look so natural and decent.

Just like Gu Cheng's poem: the grass is bearing seeds, the wind is shaking the leaves, and we stand without talking, which is beautiful. Sometimes I especially hope that it will be beautiful to stand on the stage without saying a word. There is a famous American artist named John Cage. In 1950, he wrote a piano piece called Four Minutes and 33 Seconds. The work is like this. The performer stood on the stage, opened the piano cover and put on the music. After sitting up, I sat quietly without touching a finger for four minutes and 33 seconds.

In the first ten seconds, everyone was waiting. It is possible that the pianist is brewing emotions, and he is getting a little restless. Slowly, someone yawned, and there were all kinds of voices. At 4 minutes and 33 seconds, the pianist got up, put away the score, covered the piano cover and said, my performance is over, and I have to go. The audience was puzzled, but after they calmed down, all the audience realized that although there was no sound at that moment, they heard music outside the keys, their heartbeat, breathing, whispering and a little fidgety, all of which became every part of music in four minutes and 33 seconds.

In fact, what I especially want to share with young friends here is not to underestimate the power of action, nor to underestimate the power of individuals. Do everything you think you should do with your heart. Just like I started,/kloc-0 graduated from technical secondary school in 1996. I didn't go to college, and I didn't go to Hunan TV Broadcasting Institute. At that time, the program I entered Hunan TV Station was called Boys and Girls. We didn't have any programs to do at that time. There is only one column. Every morning we have a meeting, then have lunch in the canteen, then have a meeting in the afternoon, then sleep in the office and then have a meeting.

But I think that kind of life is particularly novel for a young man who just graduated from school. However, I did a lot of reports later and didn't stay in Hunan Taiwan. Then I went to Shi Jing, Hunan Province. That TV station still has my personal relationship, and there is a terrestrial channel in Hunan. I especially cherish a title. I don't think anyone behind me can be the best program host. But I can be the most loyal employee in Shi Jing, Hunan Province, and I am willing to stay here for ten or twenty years to win this title.

I began to sit and work in this TV station as an audience. There were two people in our audience at that time. We both think that Li and I sitting under the stage are the most handsome. When we are audience, we are the happiest audience. Every day, we move chairs in this studio. When we were lifting chairs, we all thought that the chair I boycotted today might be made by Mao Ning. Vega said it's possible that Lin Yilun did it for me.

Two people have many happy things every day. There were 256 spectators at the scene. When every audience comes to watch the program, there is a plastic bag, and there are more than 50 gifts in each plastic bag. I am responsible for giving gifts, marinated egg powder, light bulbs, faucets, noodles and soy sauce to every audience every day when recording the program. I am very happy every day, because I know I can take home endless noodles. Later, I became a live director, played some jokes with all the audience friends, enlivened the atmosphere and led the audience to applaud.

Of course, the applause at our scene today is spontaneous, and we will lead everyone to applaud at that time. When I was a live director, I applauded the most in each issue. I remember another time our director came to the scene to watch the program. "Where did the live director come from? This young man, come here. " I will go there. "Hello, director." "Put your hand out." I said, "Huh? How to do the procedure should also check whether the fingernails are washed. " As soon as I reach out, my hands are particularly red. He said: "You see, the on-site directors are more involved, clapping and drumming harder." I was very happy at that time, because everyone had to spend a lot of energy to watch variety shows and begged grandpa to tell grandma to get a ticket. I was always in it, and I was very happy.

Later, when I became a director, I could let my favorite host do the program according to my own ideas. Wow, what could be happier than this? Not long after, an internal party was held in Taiwan Province, saying that Wang Han studied broadcasting as a host. Let him try. Wow, but I am very happy to host this program in front of all my colleagues in Taiwan Province. At that time, I made a program called "Love Actually", and the director asked one of our program hosts at that time, "Is Han a partner?" "yes." Then I asked one of our lighting engineers. "Xiao Liao, do you think Wang Han can do it?" "yes! The warm-up is over, and the audience is so happy. Let him go. " I'm glad I can be the host.

Everything, I feel in my heart that I should do it, and I am very, very happy to do it, and I will accept it no matter what the situation is. For example, today's lights are suddenly not as good as before. You are not familiar with today's camera shooting. After you put on makeup today, you always feel that your dark circles are much bigger than usual. Today's' guests', today's desk book, everything today is so unsatisfactory. Please clap your hands in your heart quickly, because your chance has come.

I must learn patience. I must carry on such a particularly embarrassing or embarrassing situation, because there are only three points in the face of difficulties: first, you have the wisdom to tide over this difficulty; You face difficulties, you have the courage to face difficulties, you bypass difficulties, and you have the cunning to bypass difficulties. How nice. What do you want life to teach you? What do you hope this stage will teach you? As seneca once said: Why do you cry for a part of your life? Can't you see that your whole life has made people cry?

But I think he should present such an emotion. Since everyone knows that the final outcome is like that, why don't we be happy and jump forward to this end? Because our hearts are full of so many beautiful things in this world. Schopenhauer seems to have said the same thing. If your own eyes focus on the whole rather than the individual's own life, then your behavior will look more like a wise man than a victim.

So I want to spend such a long time here. What I share with all my young friends is that we are still so healthy anyway. Anyway, we can breathe freely, applaud and do whatever you want, and you won't lose anything. Even if one day you have experienced everything, you will feel, wow, life is too difficult. Congratulations, you know life is painful. Many philosophers spend their whole lives just to tell everyone how miserable life is and how we should face it with a smile.

I am 40 years old. Of course, I got too much, and I got applause and love from many guilty audiences. Because I personally think that in TV stations, the host is only the last finisher. If we don't have a lighting engineer, a camera, a makeup artist and a sound engineer on the scene today, this program can't be presented to everyone. But all the flowers applauded for us, so I felt guilty. I looked up the word "willing". At first, it seemed that terrible ghosts were in the sky. Two people said that they would be reincarnated into the world. There are two kinds of life, one is to give up and the other is to win.

Then ask two people, what kind of life do you two choose? One of them said, I want to live. Another person said, well, I'll just give up. So two people came to the earth. The man who lived a good life eventually became a beggar. Because everything was given to him by others, he got funding from others, got pity from others, got this and got that. The man who said he would give up his life became a very rich man. He gave his wealth, his knowledge and everything he owned to others bit by bit.

But I think, in the face of so many young friends today, do I have to establish this concept of giving up and getting in the minds of the post-80 s and post-90 s? Then I thought, we shouldn't. Instead of emphasizing giving up and getting, we should consider another word behind giving up and accepting. We pick up what God has given you with our hands and hold it in our hands. Of course, we don't need to hold it above our heads, because everyone may receive such a gift. Whatever God throws at you, we should carry it on our shoulders. No matter how much you throw, you must carry it first. The purpose of carrying is to make our bodies stronger and our arms stronger, so that you can carry it when he gives you a bigger gift one day.

Do whatever you want and make yourself happy, provided that you don't base your happiness and happiness on the suffering of others. Besides, you can't see it alone, you can jump home alone and do whatever you want. So, I wish all the young friends present here do what they want to do and what you think is happy. If you want every step of your life to become a poem when you look back one day, then you should take every step of your life in a down-to-earth way.
