So with this realization in mind, I decided to embrace all of the different versions of myself
带着这种认识，我决定接受一个截然不同的自己，
even allow myself to reinvent myself at times.
甚至允许自己以全新的面貌出现。
So for example, in high school, I have to confess I was a mega-nerd.
比如，在高中的时候，我不得不承认我是个书呆子。
I had no sense of fashion — thick glasses, simple hairstyle — you can get the idea.
对于时尚一窍不通–戴着厚眼镜，留着简单的发型，相信你们能想象出来。
I think, actually, I only had friends because I shared my homework. That’s the truth.
我觉得，那时候我之所以有朋友，是因为我借作业给他们抄。是真的。
But once at university, I was able to find a new identity for myself, and the nerd became a popular girl.
但在大学的时候，我找到了自己新的身份，从书呆子变成了受欢迎的女孩。
But it was MIT, so I don’t know if I can take too much credit for that.
但因为我在麻省理工，所以我也不知道这种改变到底有多大用处。
As they say over there, “The odds are good, but the goods are odd.”
他们那儿有句话，“数量挺多的，质量却不好。”
I switched majors so many times that my advisors joked that I should get a degree in “random studies.”
我换了很多次专业，最后我的顾问开玩笑说，我应该去修一个“随机专业”学位。
I told this to my kids.
我把这件事告诉了我的孩子们。
And then over the years, I have gained a lot of different identities.
这些年我有了许多不同的身份。
I started as an inventor, entrepreneur, social innovator.
最开始我是作为一名发明者，企业家，社会革新者。
Then I became an investor, a woman in tech, a teacher.
之后我成为了投资人，技术女性，老师。
And most recently, I became a mom, or as my toddler says repeatedly, “Mom!” day and night.
最近我成为了一名母亲，或者像我的小家伙不停叫着的，“妈～妈～”，从早到晚。
Even my accent was so confused — its origin was so obscure, that my friends called it, “Rebecanese.”
就连我的口音也很奇怪–它是如此复杂，以至于我的朋友管它叫“瑞贝卡语”。
瑞贝卡·黄的一生都在不停地切换身份–在韩国出生，在阿根廷长大，在美国上学–长久以来，她甚至无法找到一个可以称之为老家的地方。在这个充满挑战的过程中，她有了一个关键的认识：多元化的背景在今天这个全球化的世界中是一个明显的优势。在这个关于她自己的演讲中，黄分享了接受复杂身份所能带来的众多好处，以及她希望建立一个新世界的愿望，在那里身份不再让人们彼此疏离，而是互相靠近。
