Hello everyone. It is my great honor to stand here and give you a speech . My topic today is future is now.
When it comes to future, we always have a lot to say. Whether for ourselves or the country, we need to live up to the expectation and be responsible for the future of our own.
The future holds limitless promise and challenges, to have a glorious future, we must improve ourselves and prepare for it now.
A glorious future means a firm dream. Without dreams, we have no future. But it would be senseless if you only have the ideal instead of action because the future only exists in your imagination and you will accomplish nothing. Turning dreams into reality will be far more important.
A glorious future means dealing with tough times confidently and never give up. Chelsea Fearce, for whom getting a shower, food and clean clothes was an everyday struggle, held a 4.466 GPA and scored 1900 on her SATs. She said, when facing difficulties, just tell yourself to keep working. Because you have been made stronger and the future will not be like this anymore .
A glorious future means be attentive to details and waiting patiently. Think of the biographies you have read, the person you are reading about is in his or her early life on page 50, doesn't know about the success he or she will achieve on page 300. All of us are only on about page 50 of your biography, with hundreds of pages to go. You have to trust that your gains will somehow connect in your future, and that would make all the difference.
A glorious future means doing what you have to do right now. What is required of us now is a new view that we have duties to ourselves and our lives that we do not grudging accept but rather seize gladly, and be grateful for the gifts of God. Be aware that there is nothing so satisfying to the spirit, so take the most advantage of what you have and refuse to complain.
But these are not all about the future.
We should be focused, disciplined, demanding, self critical and open minded. The future is clenched in our hand, the way we handled now that determines what kind of life we would have.
Sisu is our future in the past , and we, are soon to make the future for sisu. So, step forth firmly and never turn back nor falter. Remember, the future is now.Through our talents, through our intelligence, through our endurance and through our creativity, we will be sure to make it !
Thank you.
第二篇：Future is now
Future is now(英语演讲比赛稿)
I could never forget the conversation with my close friend several years ago. When I was thinking how we can reward our parents in the future, she came up with “Let’s do it right now”.
Let’s do it right now. I was deeply touched by this simple but profound sentence. And I suddenly realized how much we focus on the future rather than right now. I do hear people say “I will do this in the future” and “I will be happy in the future”. But the truth is , there’s no better time than right now. If not now, when? “Future”, how abstract the word is! What is future? When is future? As Forest Gump said “Life was like a box of chocolate, we’ll never know what we are going to get.” In fact, no one has a guarantee that he or she will be here tomorrow .Now is the only time we have , and the only time that we have any control over. So, treasure every moment that you have. And remember that time waits for no one.
My dear friends, life is a journey, not a destination. Don’t wait until tomorrow .Don’t let life slip though our fingers by living in the future. Future is now. Future depends on what we think and do now. Rather than rewarding our parents in the future, why don’t we love them from this moment. Instead of planning many things in the future, why don’t we do it right now. Rather than being happy tomorrow, why not be happy today. Tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift .That’s why we give it another name---“The Present”.
