You may have heard me say

it's good to think in terms of the physics approach from first principles
这里可以类比从基本原理出发的物理方法

rather than reasoning by analogy

you boil things down to the most fundamental truths you can imagine

You don't have kids

Your obligation... oh, sorry

Probably not, of course
也许有人有孩子
but as you get older, your obligations increase
不过随着年龄的增长 责任也会随之增长
And once you have a family
有了家庭之后再去冒险
you start taking not just for yourself but for your family as well

It gets much harder to do things that might not work out
要去冒险做一些可能成不了的事 难度可能会更大
So now it's the time to do that before you have those obligations
在没有这些责任之前 做这样的事负担会比较小
So I want to encourage you to take risks and to do something bold
我鼓励大家勇于冒险 胆子放大一些
You won't regret it. Thank you
