我们都知道，想要成功，光凭一个好想法，或者一个好的工作态度，是远远不够的。幸运也是成功很重要的因素。如果当初，我无法花时间编写代码，而是必须勤工俭学补贴家用，如果我无法承受“万一Facebook不能成功”这一假设，我今天都不会站在这里。诚实地想一想，我们都知道，（能够有今天）自己是多么的幸运。

Every generation expands its definition of equality. Previous generations fought for the vote and civil rights. They had the New Deal and Great Society. Now it's our time to define a new social contract for our generation.

每一代人的成长都扩大了平等的定义。前几代人争取投票权和民权，于是他们争取到了有新政和大社会。现在到了我们为这一代人定义新的社会契约的时候了。

We should have a society that measures progress not just by economic metrics like GDP, but by how many of us have a role we find meaningful. We should explore ideas like universal basic income to give everyone a cushion to try new things. We’re going to change jobs many times, so we need affordable childcare to get to work and healthcare that aren't tied to one company. We're all going to make mistakes, so we need a society that focuses less on locking us up or stigmatizing us. And as technology keeps changing, we need to focus more on continuous education throughout our lives.

我们应该有一个不仅仅凭借GDP这样的经济指标来衡量进步的社会，而是一个每个人都可以找到自己的存在意义和角色的社会。我们应该探索像“普遍基本收入”这样的观念，让每一个人都有机会尝试新事物。每个人都有可能换很多工作，这就要求我们得建立人人都负担得起的儿童托管保育机构和不约束于就职单位的医疗保健，这样让人可以无负担地去上班。人人都会犯错，所以我们需要一个更少污蔑与束缚的社会。随着技术的不断变化，我们要更多地关注继续教育，活到老，学到老。

And yes, giving everyone the freedom to pursue purpose isn't free. People like me should pay for it. Many of you will do well and you should too.

是的，赋予每个人追求目标的自由，这并不是免费的。像我这样的人应当为此付费。在你们之中，许多人都会做得很好，当然，你们也有义务去做好。

That's why Priscilla and I started the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative and committed our wealth to promoting equal opportunity. These are the values of our generation. It was never a question of if we were going to do this. The only question was when.

这也是为什么当初 Priscilla 和我启动了Chan Zuckerberg Initiative，并承诺要我们的财富去促进机会平等。这些是我们这代人的价值。”要不要这样做”从来都不是问题，唯一的问题是“什么时候去做”。

Millennials are already one of the most charitable generations in history. In one year, three of four US millennials made a donation and seven out of ten raised money for charity.

千禧一代已经是历史上最慈善的一代人之一了。千禧一代的美国人在一年中，平均四个人里就有三个人会捐款，平均十个人里就有七个人会为慈善募捐。

But it's not just about money. You can also give time. I promise you, if you take an hour or two a week -- that's all it takes to give someone a hand, to help them reach their potential.

但这也不仅限于金钱。你也可以奉献你的时间。我在这里向你保证，如果你可以每一两周要花一个小时（去奉献和帮助），就会有一个人因此获得帮助，甚至实现他们以前不可能实现的目标。

Maybe you think that's too much time. I used to. When Priscilla graduated from Harvard she became a teacher, and before she'd do education work with me, she told me I needed to teach a class. I complained: "Well, I'm kind of busy. I'm running this company." But she insisted, so I taught a middle school program on entrepreneurship at the local Boys and Girls Club.

或许你觉得这太花时间了。我曾经也这么认为。当Priscilla毕业于哈佛后，她成了一名老师，在她和我一起投身教育行业之前，她告诉我，我需要去教授一门课。我抱怨道：“好吧，可是我很忙啊，我得经营Facebook啊。”但是她坚持让我去教课，所以我就在当地的男童女童俱乐部教授了一门关于创业精神的中学课程。

I taught them lessons on product development and marketing, and they taught me what it's like feeling targeted for your race and having a family member in prison. I shared stories from my time in school, and they shared their hope of one day going to college too. For five years now, I’ve been having dinner with those kids every month. One of them threw me and Priscilla our first baby shower. And next year they’re going to college. Every one of them. First in their families.

我教他们在产品开发和市场营销中应当吸取的教训，从他们身上，我学到了当自己的种族受到社会关注、或有家庭成员身陷囹圄时的感受。 我向他们分享了我读书时的故事，他们分享了对走进大学深造的渴望。 五年来，我每个月都会和这些孩子一起共进一次晚餐。其中有一个孩子，为我与Priscilla的第一个宝宝在出生前，举办了宝宝洗礼派对。明年，这些孩子们都要上大学了，是的，他们每一个都要上大学了，而且他们都将骄傲地成为自己家族里第一名大学生。

We can all make time to give someone a hand. Let's give everyone the freedom to pursue their purpose -- not only because it's the right thing to do, but because when more people can turn their dreams into something great, we're all better for it.

花一点时间，去帮助其他人，这是我们每个人都可以做到的。让我们通过此举，让每个人都有实现人生目标的自由——不仅因为这样做是正确的，更是因为当人们可以把梦想变为伟大的现实时，我们每个人都会变得更好。

Purpose doesn't only come from work. The third way we can create a sense of purpose for everyone is by building community. And when our generation says "everyone", we mean everyone in the world.

“目标”不仅来自于工作。去实现“让每个人都有活的有目标”的第三种方式是建立社区。 而当我们这一代人说“每个人”的时候，我们指的是——世界上的每一个人。

Quick show of hands: how many of you are from another country? Now, how many of you are friends with one of these folks? Now we're talking. We have grown up connected.

来做一个调查：你们有多少来自美国之外其他国家？你们中有多少人是他们的朋友？看到了吗？我们出生于一个互联的世界。

In a survey asking millennials around the world what defines our identity, the most popular answer wasn't nationality, religion or ethnicity, it was "citizen of the world".

在最近一项调查中，世界各地的80后90后被要求选择自己认同的身份，最流行的答案不是国籍，宗教或种族，它是“世界公民”。

That's a big deal.

这是一个标志性的事件。

Every generation expands the circle of people we consider "one of us". For us, it now encompasses the entire world.

每一代人都扩大了我们认同的“自己人”。对我们来说，它现在涵盖了整个世界。

We understand the great arc of human history bends towards people coming together in ever greater numbers -- from tribes to cities to nations -- to achieve things we couldn't on our own.

回顾历史，历史的车轮总是青睐于更大基数的集体 - 从部落到城市到国家 - 来实现我们不能单独做的事情。
