A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
职业生涯
Career
In my early years, there were a number of experiences that made me decide I could not afford the luxury of just being an actress. There were a number of issues I wanted to address. And I wanted to use my career as a platform.
在我的早年,有很多经历使我决定我不能仅仅作为一个演员的奢侈。我有很多问题想要解决。我想把我的职业生涯作为一个平台。
So I did that for a long time in my career, and I waited for parts to play myself just physically down a little bit. But I do feel like I'm at a place in my career now where I don't necessarily fret about that too much anymore.
所以我在我的职业生涯中有很长一段时间都是这样做的,我一直在等待角色让我的身体稍微放松一点。但我确实觉得我现在处于职业生涯的一个阶段,我不必再为那件事担心太多。
Writing is as big a part of my career as acting is, financially and time wise. So, yeah, I love it. That's all I wanted to do since I was young was be a writer. So that and acting are the two most important aspects of my career.
在我的职业生涯中,写作和表演一样重要,无论是在经济上还是时间上。所以,是的,我喜欢它。这就是我年轻时想做的一切,当一名作家。所以那和表演是我职业生涯中最重要的两个方面。
And I was victim to that very early in my career, where I would go into auditions, and I'd be wearing a big T shirt, a big baggy T shirt and loose jeans. You know, to try and show people that there was more to me than just that.
在我职业生涯的早期,我就是这种情况的受害者,那时我要去试镜,我要穿一件大大的T恤,一件宽大的T恤和宽松的牛仔裤。你知道,试着让人们知道我不仅仅是那样。
I have done things politically, and I've been running a business at the same time, but I sort of joke that to some extent I do more than most legislators have done in their whole careers, and I've been doing it as a part-time job.
我做过政治方面的事情,同时我也在经营一家企业,但我开玩笑说,在某种程度上,我做的事情比大多数议员在他们整个职业生涯中做的还要多,而且我一直在做兼职。
My career has been different from most people, but I knew what I was not going to do. I knew I was not going to be controlled. I knew there was a price for this, but I did not know there was as large a price as it turned out to be.
我的职业生涯与大多数人不同,但我知道我不会做什么。我知道我不会被控制。我知道这是有代价的,但我不知道有这么大的代价。
As a matter of fact, there was a period of time, especially in my first career, when that's the only one who would work out with me: my dogs. As you get better and better working out, there's no one who can keep up with you running.
事实上,有一段时间,尤其是在我的第一份工作中,只有我的狗能和我一起锻炼。随着你的运动越来越好,没有人能跟得上你跑步。
I think it is probably more important to attend specialized conventions for a journeyman writer than any other, but it's useful at all stages of a career, if for nothing else, to find out how the industry is working at any given time.
我认为,对于一个经验丰富的作家来说,参加专业会议可能比参加其他任何会议都更重要,但它在职业生涯的各个阶段都很有用,如果没有其他目的,那就是了解这个行业在任何特定时间是如何运作的。
My buddy David Wells is a big motorcycle guy, so when I go visit him in San Diego, he takes me out on his bike. He's got some antique Indians. I never really rode during my career, because I was afraid I'd fall off and ruin my career.
我的朋友大卫威尔斯是一个骑摩托车的大个子,所以当我去圣地亚哥看他的时候,他会带我去骑他的自行车。他有一些印第安古董。在我的职业生涯中,我从来没有真正骑过马,因为我害怕我会摔下来,毁了我的职业生涯。
Our career path has tended to be the most perverse and contrary approach to the entertainment industry imaginable, while at the same time doing the kinds of things that you have to do, the videos, the photos and all that sort of stuff.
我们的职业道路往往是我们所能想象到的与娱乐行业背道而驰的最反常的道路,与此同时,我们还要做一些必须做的事情,比如视频、照片等等。
The biggest mistake that you can make is to believe that you are working for somebody else. Job security is gone. The driving force of a career must come from the individual. Remember: Jobs are owned by the company, you own your career!
你可能犯的最大错误就是相信你在为别人工作。工作保障消失了。事业的动力必须来自个人。记住:工作是公司的,事业是你的!
The combination of landing the biggest interview of my career and having a drill in my back reminds me that God only gives us what we can handle and that it helps to have a good sense of humor when we run smack into the absurdity of life.
这次面试是我职业生涯中最大的一次面试,而我的背后又有一把钻子,这两者的结合提醒我,上帝只给了我们力所能及的东西,当我们遇到生活中的荒谬时,保持良好的幽默感是有帮助的。

I am just at that stage of wondering where I go from here. I came into this business almost by accident, but now it has become serious. What started as a bit of fun, something to do other than be a model, has taken on a different career curve. I have been forced to ask where that curve is going to end up.
我正处于这样的阶段,不知道从这里我将走向何方。我进入这个行业几乎是偶然的,但现在它变得严重了。一开始只是为了好玩,不是为了当模特,后来走上了一条不同的职业道路。我不得不问,这条曲线的终点在哪里。
