Just do it, young man.

今天回家的路上，遇见了几年前，无忧雇佣的一个年轻人，我们华人的孩子，他向无忧介绍了他的工作状况，已经是政府GS14，并也做了财务负责人。
无忧非常的高兴，更为这个年轻人感到自豪。
记得当年，无忧要他干一件事情，他有些畏惧，担心干不好。
无忧对他说：如下一番话，他记得，无忧也记得，因为无忧觉得这个年轻人可以培养，这个年轻人也深深知道无忧当时的好意。

Do not tell me that you can not do it. Tell me that you won’t do it. Or tell me that you don’t like to do it.

Do not tell me that you can not do it. I never understand or never agree that you can not do it.  I hired you because I believe you and have a high hope on you.

Come on, I came from China. I was born in China, I started to learn English when I was 17 year old.  You simply can not tell me that you can not do it.  If I can, yes, you can. You are born in America. Oh, yes you can.  Go ahead and do it.

Otherwise, tell me that you won’t do it. Or tell me that you don’t like to do it. I understand that you don’t like to do it or you won’t do it.  That is fine.  I agree.  And I may assign you a different task.

I have to tell you I can do pretty much everything, except to be American president, because I was not born in America.  Please never tell me again that you can not do this or that. Yes you can.  Look, my English is so poor, I still can be the Director of XXX, and the Chief of XXX, so can you in the future, in the near future.

How about this? You take the credit  if you do well. I take the blame if you fail.

Just do it, young man.
