奥普拉2013在哈佛大学(5)

And I thought: You want me to speak to Harvard graduates? What I. . . What can I possibly say to Harvard graduates, some of the most successful graduates in the world. In the very moment when I had stopped succeeding? So I got off the phone with President Faust, and I went to the shower.

It was either that or a bag of Oreos. So I chose a shower. And I was in the shower along time. And as I was in the shower the words of an old hymn came to me, you may not know it. It's By and By. . . When the morning comes. And I started thinking about when the morning might come.

Because when the time I thought I was stuck in a hole and the words came to me: Trouble. Trouble don't last always from that hymn. This too shall pass. And I thought, as I got out of that shower, I, I'm going to turn this thing around.

And I would be better for it. And when I do, I'm going to go to Harvard, I'm going to speak the truth of it. So I'm here today to tell you: I have turned that network around! And it was all because I wanted to do it.

By the time I got to speak to you or so. Thank you so much! You don't know what motivation you are for me. Thank you!
