这句语录背后的故事
Iovine closed his speech by reframing the USC diploma not as an endpoint but as a 'learner's permit for the rest of the drive through life.' He urged graduates to continue learning with humility rather than hubris, and reminded them that the powerful insecurities everyone carries — the fear, the self-doubt — can be harnessed as 'the strongest five-hour energy drink ever.' Drawing on his journey from cleaning floors and making tea as a second recording engineer to building a billion-dollar headphone company, Iovine demonstrated that raw work ethic consistently trumps innate talent.
