The world is changing rapidly and most people are very anxious about it. In fact, I think it might even be stronger and more accurate to say that most people are downright fearful of what they see going on around them.
世界在飛速變化，許多人為此而憂心忡忡。事實上，我認為可以更有力、更確切地說，大多數人對自己周圍發生的一切完全心存恐懼。

Technological change and innovation are completely altering many aspects of our lives and it doesn’t stop there. Economic changes, social changes, scientific changes, political changes… the list is endless. However, the big question we all face is how are we going to respond to these changes?
技術科學進步和創新使我們生活的方方面面發生了翻天覆地的變化，而且這種變化不會到此為止。這種變化同時也滲透到經濟、社會、科技、政治等各個方面。然而，大家面臨的一個大問題就是：我們將如何應對這些變化？

While the specific answers about what to do take time and thought to uncover, the best way to approach the future and all of the changes it will bring can be summed up in one word: Confidence.
雖然具體的答案需要花時間和心思才能得出，但通向未來的最佳途徑及其將會帶來的一切變化可以歸結為兩個字：信心。

Personal confidence is one of the greatest assets we all possess. Certainly some people seem to have much more of it than others but I believe that confidence is a skill that we can all develop. In some ways, it is undoubtedly the most important skill we can develop.
自信是我們所擁有的最寶貴的資本之一。當然，有些人似乎比別人更為自信，但我認為自信是一種人人都可以培養出來的技巧。就某些方面而言，它毋庸置疑是我們可以培養的最重要的技巧。
