在日常学习、工作抑或是生活中，大家一定看过散文吧？散文是一种自由、灵活、短小精悍，表现真人真事真是感情的问题。如何写一篇“形散而神不散”的散文呢？
The small camel in the zoo asked her mother, "Mom, mom, why are our eyelashes so long?" The mother of the camel said, "when the wind and sand come, the long lashes can make us see the direction in the storm."
10 classic inspirational stories. " The small camel asked, "mother and mother, why are our backs so camel and the ugly dead!" Camel mother said, "this is called hump. It can save a lot of water and nutrients for us, so that we can tolerate more than ten days water free conditions in the desert." The small camel asked, "Mom, mom, why are our feet so thick?"
"The camel mother said," it can make our heavy body not in the soft sand, easy to travel long. " Small camel pleased bad: "Wow, so useful that we ah!！ But mom, why are we still in the zoo and not going to the desert hiking? "
To be useful, but no one now used. A good state of mind + a successful textbook + an infinite stage = success. The potential of each person is unlimited, and the key is to find a stage that can give full play to its potential.
There are two friends together to go to distant places to find the happiness of life and happiness, on the way in time to reach the target will brave the wind and dew, and encountered a roaring waves of the sea, and the sea shore is happiness and joy of heaven, about how to live through the sea, two people have different views, a a suggestion of logging near trees caused a wooden boat to cross the sea, another is that no matter which cannot be got the sea crossing, and why bother with the dead, the current dry, and then easily walk.
Then, proposed shipbuilding people every day to cut down trees, ships manufacturing hard and actively, and incidentally, learn to swim; and one day rest and sleep, then do not observe to the river sea. One day, when a friend of the ship was ready to sail out of the sea, another friend was still laughing at his stupidity.
However, a friend of shipbuilding is not angry. Just before leaving, he said something to his friend: "to do everything is not always successful, but if you don't do everything, you will never get the chance to succeed."
Can think of to do to lay seawater over the sea, this is indeed a great idea, but unfortunately, this is just a "great" doomed to failure and creative.
The sea never dried up, and the friend of that shipyard finally reached the other side of the target after a storm. The two men later settled down on the two banks of the sea, and they also spawned many of their own descendants. One side of the sea is called the fertile land of happiness and happiness. We live in a group of people who are called diligent and courageous. The other side of the sea is called failure and loss, and live in a group of people we call lazy and cowardly.
This story tells us:
(1) it is better to stand up than to stand up by thinking.
(two) no matter how long you have gone and how tired you are, do not lie down at the door of the "successful" home.
(three) dreams are not fantasies.
A young rich man to consult a success, but the rich man took three different sizes in front of a watermelon on the youth, "If each piece of watermelon on behalf of the interests of a certain extent, you choose that piece?"
"Of course is the biggest piece of!" Young did not hesitate to answer.
Rich man smiled: "Well, please now!" Rich people to the biggest piece of watermelon to the youth, while they eat the smallest piece.
Soon, rich on the finish, and then pick up the last piece of watermelon table proudly shook the face of the young, with big stuttering.
Young people immediately understand the meaning of the rich: the rich man does not eat the melon melon young people, and eat more than young people.
If each piece of watermelon on behalf of the interests of a certain degree, then the interests of rich natural possession of more than youth.
Eating watermelon, rich youth said: "To be successful, we must learn to give up, only to give up immediate interests in order to obtain long-term Italian, and this is my success."
I look at spiders and butter-flies 。 I watch caterpillars and moths 。 Sometimes I think I'm the only one who notices these things 。 But if it hadn't been for a crowded cafeteria ， I wouldn't Have ever noticed Valeri 。 After all ， I wasn't looking for new friends 。
我观察蜘蛛和蝴蝶，还研究毛毛虫和飞蛾。有时，我想我是唯一注意这些事物的人了。要不是一家拥挤的自助餐厅，我将永远不会注意到瓦莱丽。毕竟，我一直都没有找新朋友。
Valeri was a new student 。 She walked to class with her books huddled against her chest and her head down 。 He talked only when the teacher asked her a question 。 After a month at our school ， she hadn't made any friend 。 At recess ， she sat on a bench and read 。 If you asked who she was ， you'd get a response like this ， "She's in my PE class ， I can't remenber her name 。"
瓦莱丽是新来的学生。她总是将书抱在胸前，低着头走进教室。只有在老师提问她时，她才肯说话。她来我们学校一个月了，还没交到一个朋友。课间，她就坐在长椅上看书。如果你想知道她是谁，那你多半会得到这样的答复：“我和她在一起上体育课，但我不记得她叫什么。”
One day at lunch ， I had nowhere to sit 。 Most tables were full ， my friends scattered among them 。 But Valeri sat alone ， book in hand ， I walked over to her 。
一天，吃午餐时，餐桌差不多都坐满了，我没地方坐了，我的朋友们都分散开了。但瓦莱丽拿着书一个人坐在那儿。于是，我朝她走了过去。
"May I sit here ？"I asked 。
“我可以坐在这儿吗？”我问。
"Sure ，"she said 。
“当然可以。”她说。
The cafeteria was noisy ， but silence hung between us 。 Valeri didn't seem to mind ， but it drove me crazy 。 I searched my mind for things to say 。
餐厅里喧闹不已，而我们一直都沉默着。瓦莱丽好像并不在意，但我憋得受不了了。我绞尽脑汁，想找点话说。
"So,"I said ， "is that a good book?"Valeri gave a small nod and went back to reading 。 "What's it about?"I asked ， after several more agonizing seconds of silence 。 She looked at me ， her eyes sparkling 。
“呃，那本书很好看吧？”瓦莱丽轻轻的点了点头，又继续看书。“都写了些什么呢？”我问道。一阵令人恼火的沉默之后，她终于看着我，眼中闪出异样的光芒。
"Well ， it's called Eragon ， and it's about a dragon!This boy ， Eragon ， finds this dragon egg when he goes hunging one day 。 He thinks it's a rock ！The egg hatches and Eragon hides the dragon from his cousin and uncle until it gets too big 。"
“唔，它叫《龙骑士》，讲的是关于一条龙的故事！一天，一个名叫鄂尔根的男孩打猎时，发现了一枚龙蛋。他以为那是一块石头，但那枚龙蛋孵化出龙来，鄂尔根怕他的叔叔和堂兄发现，便把那条龙藏了起来，直到它长大。”
"That sounds cool."I said. I was about to ask her another question,but the bell rang.
“听来真不错。”我说。我还想再问个问题，可上课铃响了。
As I rushed out of the cafeteria ， I called to Valeri ， "See you later 。"
我一边往餐厅外冲，一边对她大叫：“再见。”
"Yeah,"she said,"see you later."She sounded doubtful 。
“好的，”她说，“再见。”她的声音若有若无。
A couple days later ， I spotted Valeri looking for a place to sit at lunch 。
几天以后，我发现瓦莱丽正在找地方坐下来吃饭。
"Valeri ， come here."I pointed to an empty chair 。
“瓦莱丽，来这里。”我指着一个空座位说。
She sat down and pulled out her book 。 Everyone was talking about next week's talent show 。 "So ，what are you doing for the show? "My friend Erin asked my friend Kelly 。
她坐了下来，拿出书。当时，大家都在谈论下个星期的才艺展示会。“你打算表演什么？”我的朋友埃林和凯利交谈着。
"Oh,I don't know ， probably nothing,"Kelly sighed 。"What are you doing?"She pointed to Valeri.
“噢，我不知道，也许会放弃，”凯利叹着气，“你呢？”她问瓦莱丽。
"Oh."Valeri put her book down 。"I don't know 。 Maybe nothing."
“噢，”瓦莱丽放下书，“我不知道，也许什么也不演。”
The week flew by 。 Before I knew it 。 I was sitting in the auditorium ， listening to a group of girls sing the latest pop songs at the talent show 。 I was bored out of my life ， and I wanted it to end so I could read Eragon 。 I'd checked it out at the library ， Then a shy girl walked on stage 。 I recongized her immediately 。 Valeri clutched a violin in one hand and a bow in the other 。
不知不觉中，周末就到了，我坐在会堂里，听一群女孩子唱当下最流行的歌曲，感觉却枯燥极了，真希望演唱快点结束，那样我就可以看《龙骑士》了，我在图书馆找到了这本书。这时，一个腼腆的女孩走上了舞台，我立刻认出了她------瓦莱丽。她一手抓着小提琴，一手拿着琴弓。
She stared to play 。 The notes formed a soft ， weet tune 。 Then it turned fast ， then faster 。 The music stopped altogether before the tune retumed 。 Valeri ended the song with one hard ， fast ， loud note 。 The auditorium fell completely silent until we realized the music was finished 。 Still in a halftrance ， we burst into applause 。 Valeri took a swift bow and walked off stage 。
她开始拉提琴了。一个个音符变成了柔和，优美的旋律，韵律逐渐加快，她越拉越急，音乐声戛然而止。乐曲在瓦莱丽拉出一串强硬，急速，洪亮的音符后归于沉寂。会堂里出奇的安静，过了一会儿，我们才意识到她已经演奏完了。仍陶醉于美妙中的我们对她报以雷鸣般的掌声。瓦莱丽快速地鞠了一躬，走下了舞台。
I smiled to myself 。 Valeri wasn't just a "quiet girl" 。She knew about wonderful books and could play the violin like nothing I'd ever heard 。 Like a caterpillar or butterfly ， she was beautiful and amazing when you looked closely 。
我暗自微笑，原来瓦莱丽不仅仅是一个“安静的女孩”，她博览奇妙的好书，能拉出我闻所未闻的小提琴曲。她就像那毛毛虫或蝴蝶，当你靠近她，仔细的观察，你会发现，她有着惊人的美。
The story goes that some time ago, a man punished his 3-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became infuriated when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree. Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, "This is for you, Daddy.”
The man was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found out the box was empty. He yelled at her, stating, "Dont you know, when you give someone a present, there is supposed to be something inside? The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and cried, "Oh, Daddy, its not empty at all. I blew kisses into the box. Theyre all for you, Daddy."
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl, and he begged for her forgiveness. Only a short time later, an accident took the life of the child. It is also told that her father kept that gold box by his bed for many years and, whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.
In a very real sense, each one of us, as humans beings, have been given a gold container filled with unconditional love and kisses.。. from our children, family members, friends, and God. There is simply no other possession, anyone could hold, more precious than this.
There are two friends together to go to distant places to find the happiness of life and happiness, on the way in time to reach the target will brave the wind and dew, and encountered a roaring waves of the sea, and the sea shore is happiness and joy of heaven, about how to live through the sea, two people have different views, a a suggestion of logging near trees caused a wooden boat to cross the sea, another is that no matter which cannot be got the sea crossing, and why bother with the dead, the current dry, and then easily walk.

One evening, it was raining and the wind was blowing hard. An old couple came to an inn and prepared to put up for the night （投宿）there. A young man received them with open arms（热地）， but said "I”m sorry! Our guest rooms here are all full and the inns nearby are all full, too, for there will be an important meeting to be held here tomorrow."
Hearing the young man”s words, the old couple felt very disappointed, and turned around to leave.
Just as they were leaving, the young man came up to them and stopped them: "Madam and sir, if you don”t mind, you can sleep in my bedroom for a night.。.。.。."
The next evening, the old couple took out lots of money to give it to the young man, but he refused to take it.
"No！You needn”t pay me any money, for I only lend my room to you." said the young man with a smile on his face.
"You”re great, young man! It”s very kind of you. Maybe one day, I”ll build a hotel for you!" said the old man gratefully.
With these words, the old couple left.
Gazing at their receding figures, the young man only laughed and went on working.
Several years later, the young man suddenly received a letter from the old couple, inviting him to go to Manhattan（曼哈顿） 。
The young man met the old couple in front of a luxury hotel（豪华饭店）。
"Do you still remember what I said to you several years ago? Look! This is the hotel that I built for you!" said the old man.
Soon, the young man became the manager of the hotel.
If You Could Choose If you could choose what kind of world to live in, what kind of world would you choose? If you could decide what would happen tomorrow, with what kinds of things would you fill it? If you had the power to decide what types of opportunities would come your way, what opportunities would you select? If you knew that your experiences would match your expectations, what would your expectations be? In fact, you do have the power to choose your own way. You do have the ability to decide what kinds of events, experiences, opportunities and circumstances come your way. The world you experience is the world that your dreams, your thoughts, your expectations and your actions most closely resonate*。 The world you see and live in is the world you most sincerely expect to see. The universe is filled with endless possibilities, and those possibilities keep growing with every minute. The way you live determines which of those possibilities will come into your life. With your thoughts, your actions, your values, your dreams and expectations, you choose what kind of world you live in. The way you live is closely mirrored in the world you see.

如果你可以选择在什么样的世界里生活，那么你将会选择怎样的世界呢？如果你可以决定明日之事，你将会怎样充实它呢？ 倘若你有力量决定自己的机遇，你会怎样选择呢？倘若你知道你的经历会如你所愿，那么你会如何期待呢？ 事实上，你有能力选择你要走的路。是你自己决定你将要做的事、英语短文你将获得的经历、你将得到的机会和你将置身其中的环境。 你体验的这个世界和你的梦想、思维、期待甚至行为产生共鸣。你看到的世界和你时下生活的这个世界就是你真心期待见到的世界。 这个宇宙充满了无限的可能，这些可能每一分钟都在增加。你的生活方式决定了何种可能性会来到你的世界。 你所选择生活的世界取决于你的想法，你的作为，你秉持的价值理念，你的梦想还有对未来的期待。你有什么样的世界观就会有什么样的生活方式。
I do not know who wrote those words, but I have always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want to make it.
We can take the mysterious, hazy future and carve out of it anything that we can imagine, just like a sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone.
We are all in the position of the farmer. If we plant a good seed, we reap a good harvest. If our seed is poor and full of weeds, we reap a useless crop. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
I want the future to be better than the past. I don’t want it contaminated by the mistakes and errors with which history is filled. We should all be concerned about the future because that is where we will spend the reminder of our lives.
The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it. The future is before us and dynamic. Everything we do will effect it.
Each day will brings with it new frontiers, in our homes and in our businesses, if we will only recognize them. We are just at the beginning of the progress in every field of human endeavor.
翻译：未来尽在掌控
我不知道这段文字是谁写的，我一直很喜欢并用它们来提醒自己，那就是未来操之在我。
我们可以掌握神秘而不可知的未来，从中创出我们所能想象的任何东西，一如雕刻家可以将未成型的石头刻出雕像一样。
我们每个人都是农夫。我们若种下好种子，就会有丰收。倘若种子长得不良且长满杂草，我们就会徒劳无获。如果我们什么也不种，就根本不会有什么收获。
我希望未来会比过去更好。我不希望未来会被那些充斥在历史中的错误所污染。我们应关心未�
往昔已一去不复返而且是静止的。任凭我们怎么努力都不能改变过去。英语短文未来就在我们眼前而且是动态的。我们的所作所为都会影响未来。
只要我们体会的出来，每天都可以发现新的知识领域伴随而生，可能是在家里，也可能是在我们的事业中。我们正处在人类所努力钻研的每个领域中进步的起点。
industry (diligence)
it is a matter of course that industry will bring us success, wealth and good luck. i am sure that a hard-working person can always succeed in the work which he wants to do. this is unchangeable truth. idleness is the opposite of industry. it is the source of all evil. an idle man only enjoys playing and making pleasures. that he is doomed to failure is of no doubt. we should not follow his example.
勤勉会带给我们成功，财富和好运乃是当然之事。我确信一个苦干的人终是能够做成功他所要做的工作。这是不易之定理。 懒惰是勤勉的反面。它是万恶之源泉。一个懒惰的人只享受玩耍和寻乐。他命运注定失败是毫无疑问的。我们不应学他的榜样。
Mistakes and errors are the disciplined true which we advance in life. Mistakes are great teachers. Success comes to those who are willing to risk making mistakes in the pursuit of their goals and aspirations, and who are able to learn from those mistakes. And in order to learn from mistakes you must be willing to pay for them.
Mistakes can be enormously valuable, but when you try to get others to pay for your mistakes, then you deprive yourself of the opportunity to learn from them. When something goes wrong, it's usually very easy to find someone else to blame, but what does that really accomplish?
Much of the value of mistakes comes from the fact that they demand a cost that must be paid. The person who learns the most from a mistake is the person who pays the price for that mistake.
When you make a mistake, the lastthing you want to do is run away from it. You need to accept it because you can learn a lot from it. The mistake has been made, so make the most of it. Pay the price, learn the lesson, and grow that much stronger.
When you make a mistake, don't look back at it long. Remember the reason for it, and then look forward. Mistakes are lessons of wisdom. The past cannot be changed. The present is still in your power. Take full advantage of your mistakes to achieve your goals and aspirations.
[参考译文]
过失和错误让我们辨别是非，帮助我们前进。错误是伟大的老师。成功总是眷顾那些敢于冒着犯错的危险去追求他们的目标和理想，并善于从错误中吸取教训的人。为了从过失中吸取教训，你必须愿意为之付出代价。
错误可能具有巨大的价值，但是如果你想让别人来为你的错误付出代价，那你就丧失了从错误中学习的机会。当出了差错时，去责备他人总是很容易的。但是那又有什么用呢？
错误的价值在很大程度上体现为人们必须为所犯的错误付出代价。从错误中学到最多的那个人就是为之付出代价的人。
当你犯错时，你最不应该做的事情就是逃避错误。你需要接受这个事实，因为你可以从中吸取很多教训。既然已经犯了错误，就最大限度地利用它。付出代价、得到教训并成长得更加坚强。
当你犯错时，不要总放在心上。记住犯错的原因，然后向前看。犯错是智慧的课程。过去无法改变。现在仍在你的手中。利用好你的错误，来实现你的目标和理想。
We’re Just Beginning
“We are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book whose pages are infinite…”
I do not know who wrote those words, but I have always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want to make it. We can take the mysterious, hazy future and carve out of it anything that we can imagine, just as a sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone.
We are all in the position of the farmer. If we plant a good seed, we reap a good harvest. If our seed is poor and full of weeds, we reap a useless crop. If we plant nothing at all, we harvest nothing at all.
I want the future to be better than the past. I don’t want it contaminated by the mistakes and errors with which history is filled. We should all be concerned about the future because that is where we will spend the remainder of our lives.
The past is gone and static. Nothing we can do will change it. The future is before us and dynamic. Everything we do will affect it. Each day brings with it new frontiers, in our homes and in our business, if we only recognize them. We are just at the beginning of the progress in every field of human endeavor.
“我们正在读一本书的第一章第一行，这本书的页数是无限的……”
我不知道是谁写的，可我很喜欢这句话，它提醒我们未来是由自己创造的。我们可以把神秘、不可知的未来塑造成我们想象中的任何模样，犹如雕刻家将未成形的石头刻成雕像。英语励志短文
我们每个人都像是农夫。洒下良种将有丰收，播下劣种或生满野草便将毁去收成。没有耕耘则会一无所获。
我希望未来比过去更加美好，希望未来不会沾染历史的'错误与过失。我们都应举目向前，因我们的余生要用未来书写。
往昔已逝，静如止水；我们无法再作改变。而前方的未来正生机勃勃；我们所做的每一件事都将会影响着它。只要我们认识到这些，无论是在家中还是在工作上，每天我们的面前都会展现出新的天地。在人类致力开拓的每一片领域上，我们正站在进步的起跑点。
Once a small country came to China and paid tribute to three of the same golden men, and the emperor was happy. But the people of this small country are not thick, and at the same time, the question is: which of the three gold men is the most valuable? The emperor thought a lot of ways, and asked the jeweler to check it. It called the weight, and the work was the same. What should I do? The messenger is waiting to go back and report it. Great country, not even all the things you do not understand? Finally, a retired old minister said he had a way of doing it. Emperor envoy will go to the great hall, veteran chest successful enough to hold three straw, the first Jins ears, this straw ear out the other side. The second straw Jin directly from the mouth off, while the third Jin, after the straw get into the stomach, what does not ring. The minister said: the third most valuable jin! Messenger was silent, the right answer.
The story tells us that the most valuable person is not necessarily the best person to say. God gives us two ears and one mouth, which is to let us listen less. To be good at listening is the basic quality of a mature man.
生活就如同时间一样，对每一个人都是一样的。但是却因为人与人思想、思维、心态等不同便出现了不同的生活局面，有的人过得贫苦心酸，有的人过得衣食无忧，有的人过得锦衣玉食。
Life is like time, the same to everyone. But because people thought, thinking and mentality is different and there is a different life situation, some people had poor sad, some people have enough to live comfortably, some people have a rich life.
抱怨，其实对我们是最大的阻碍，如果我们就因为遇到一点点的不如意或不顺心就开始心灰意冷、者垂头丧气、一蹶不振，整个人急如此颓废下去，那么谁也拯救不了你，谁也改变不了你，最终真的就会谁都看不起你。我们应该时刻保持着一种阳光心态，自信生� 这种心态其实才是难能可贵的，但是我们很多的人就是做不到，或许他们总会觉得这样就是做作，就是矫情，就是在勉强自己。但是，我们可以仔细地去观察一下我们身边的人，那些整天只会抱怨的有几个成功了？没有。反而那些遇到困难主动寻求解决办法的基本都小有成就，这就是区别，这就是你一直想不明白的。所以，你的生活不如别人那就是因为你吃不了别人能吃的苦，你不想去付出别人付出的那么多，你不去面对或者害怕面对那些困难与挫折。
Complain, actually is the biggest obstacle for us, because if we have a little unhappy or frustrated downhearted, began, the whole people unable to get up after a fall become dejected and despondent, anxious so decadent, so who can not save you, who also can not change you, who will eventually really look down on you. We should always keep a sunny mindset and be confident in our life. Because life is not so good, then we have no reason not to improve it. This mentality is actually rare, but many of our people do not, perhaps they will feel this is affectation, is hypocritical, is in force. But, we can look carefully at the people around us, how many successes are those who only complain all day? No It is the difference that you have always wanted to not understand. So, your life is inferior to others. That's because you can't eat the pain that others can eat, you don't want to pay the amount that others pay, you don't face or fear to face those difficulties and setbacks.
古语有云：“吃得苦中苦，方为人上人”，正是告诉我们在面对生活的苦于累理所应当，我们只有经历了世间的苦才会砥砺我们坚韧不拔的意志和不屈不挠的品格。我们需要的是行动而不是抱怨和牢骚，只有行动才能解决问题，抱怨只能算得上是对自己无能的愤慨。因为自己没有能力或勇气去克服和改变，才会找借口和理由来推脱，才会不断地心生怨艾，最终困扰自己从而庸庸碌碌消耗了一生的宝贵时光。要成为人上人，就必须克服抱怨心态，消除牢骚心理，用一种我能行的自信去拼搏，这样你的人生自然与众不同。
There is an old saying: "eat bitter, leading to human"， is to tell us in the face of life suffer tired as it should be, we only experienced a world of bitter will temper our firm and indomitable will and refuse to be cowed or submit the character. What we need is action rather than complaining and grumbling. Only action can solve the problem. Complaining can only be the indignation of one's incompetence. Because they have no ability or courage to overcome and change, will find excuses to shirk, the students will continue to resentment, eventually the obsession to ordinary consumption of precious time of life. To become a human being, we must overcome the complaining mentality, eliminate the complaint mentality and fight with a confidence that I can do, so that your life is different from others.
要想真正的的活出一个像样的自己，那么就得时时刻刻都正视自己，正视自己的缺点和不足，正视自己生活的不美好之处，正视自己的行动与能力，然后在不断的实践过程中完善自己，彻底的告别抱怨，这样你就会获得一个全新的自己，你才会真正的蜕变，勇敢的走出生活的`包围圈，跨出思维的禁锢区和舒适区，大胆的去践行自己的想法，克服生活中的种种困难，只为成功找理由，不为失败找借口。告诉自己，借口和理由只能是某些时候对别人的一种敷衍与应付，但这其实也是不应该的，因为我觉得我们做人就应该敢作敢为，有胆识、有担当，绝无任何借口，这样雷厉风行的作风是我们前进的动力和利器。每当自己在遇到一些失败或挫折的时候，要清楚自己是能力不济还是准备不够充分，是自己没有意识还是别人捷足先登，而不是一来就抱怨命运不公或者埋怨自己能力不如别人。这只在一念之间便决定了你以后的一个成就与收获，有时候你清楚根源在哪里，那么便为你后续的生活提供了借鉴和警示，知道自己该从哪些方面去努力攻克，自己该提升哪些方面的能力。
If we really want to live a decent yourself, then you have to always face their own, face their own shortcomings and deficiencies, face their own life is not beauty, face action and their ability, and improve themselves in practice, thoroughly to don't complain, you will get a new self, you changed the life out of the encirclement of the brave, out of detention areas and comfort zone, daring to practice their own ideas, overcome the difficulties in life, only to find grounds for success, not to find excuses for failure. Tell yourself, only an excuse and reason is sometimes a perfunctory to others and deal with, but it should not be, because I think we should dare to do everything, have the courage, responsibility, no excuses, such a vigorous and resolute style is the power and weapon in us. Whenever I encountered some failures or setbacks, to be aware of their incompetence is still not well prepared, not their consciousness or others would not The early bird catches, complain about the unfair fate or blame their ability as well as others. This only determines your achievement and harvest after a single thought. Sometimes you know where the root is, then it will provide reference and warning for your subsequent life, and know what aspects to overcome and enhance your ability.
与其用时间去抱怨反倒不如把这些时间留给自己去思考、总结和改进。因为只有把时间充分的运用起来才会让我们没有时间去胡思乱想，才会更能够激励自己奋发向上，积极进取。这样紧张而充实的生活才是我们必须的，如果你没有时间去颓废，没有时间去抱怨，没有时间去无聊，那么你一定可以向别人一样优秀，你也会觉得自己换了一个模样，那么你就活出了一个真我。因为我们每个人都有三个“我”——假我、自我、真我，只有将自己的潜能全部激发出来并坚持不懈的努力下去，那样才会发现真正的我，才会发现自己也优秀的潜质，所以，不要随便的抱怨自己，只需要努力到无能为力，拼搏到感动自己就可以了，就能够人生无憾。
Rather than take time to complain, leave the time for yourself to think, sum up and improve. Because only the full use of time will let us have no time to think, will be more able to motivate ourselves to go up, positive and enterprising. This tight and fulfilling life is a must, if you don't have time to decadent, no time to complain, no time to boring, then you can be as good to others, you will feel a change of appearance, then you can live a real me. Because each of us has three "I" -- my self, I really false, only to their own potential, all excited and unremittingly efforts continue, it will find the real me, will also find great potential, so don't complain about yourself, just need to incapable of action. Hard to touch your can, can life without regret.
我们来到这个世界，似乎就是为了要做点什么？因此，在我们的这个漫长而又短暂的生命时光里，我们真的应该多一些努力少一些抱怨，不断地敲响自己的奋斗的号角来警示自己，不断地激励自己抱怨没有用，抱怨只能是对自己无能的愤慨。
We come to this world, and it seems to be something to do. Therefore, in the long and short life of our time, we really should be more to complain less, continue to ring their struggle of the horn to warn ourselves constantly motivate yourself no use complaining, complaining only of his incompetence indignation.
"Out laughing, I Basil how people. "The poet began his bumpy career, began his charismatic personality full of life.
But the bustling Changan city to make room for an extravagant dignitary, did not give the poet full of wit enough individuality stage. A call into the palace, although the Royal ink jade plate delicacy, treatment, but the end is "bajian four Gu heart loss" situation. Tianzong wizards, "an powerful thing, had to bow and scrape" and "grant gold returning"， only in the mountains of the potential to pull the Tianmu mountain. Xie remains extremely fairy feast, distraction poet depressed, play with the poet's personality.
Li Bai is born. There is only one Tang in the bright and brilliant five thousand years. The unprecedented Datang only one li. The more he was incompatible, the more he showed his extraordinary personality. The world of the palaces in the moon not keep the natural wonders perhaps only a remarkable talent of many ages, rose is the stage of life with his genius background, is his romantic destination.
And he was really in love with the mountains and the spirit of the water. The poet traveled around half China with his unruly feet, swam through the "lonely" Mount Tianzhu, and looked at the magnificent Mount Lu. But he's most likely to be in love with the eastward the Yellow River. "Waterfalls three thousand feet, the suspect is the Milky Way fell nine days" "the Yellow River comes from the sky, pour into the sea no longer return.。. Here.。. Li He, who is not what. Du Fu's profound and forceful will become bright and lively. Every line of the poem, every word with the genius of his personality, chapter infected by the personality temperament to become a close struck with fear, extraordinary as if done by the spirits.
Compared to the landscape, the moon in the blue sky and the golden cup is more affected by the Wizards doukan favor. The moon and wine, wine and moon are the main melody of his poetry, and the two characters have appeared in almost all his poems. But the two words of the same poet under the delicate touch, but is endowed with different temperament, different flavor. Chewing is profound. "Look at the bright moon, looking down and think of home," "a toast to invite the moon, on the film into three"。.。.。.
The poet's life is individualized, that is, death is no exception. Unlike Li He premature mortality also unlike Du Fu died in. He is zuisi. I think the poet does not think he is dead, because he keeps his love at the beginning - wine and the moon. He left the world in the most romantic way. The last flower of personality is blooming in the world.
Like his personality is manipulated by the day, otherwise he could not hold his personal life. Anyway, his personality really made him, no matter at that time or later carefree romantic, Putian reputation. Personality charm of the Tang poetry to let him into the extreme, to future generations can not match the peak.
Yanjuan Changsi, ear ring is the masterpiece of the ages: there must be a useful. The flowers of his life are so bright.
Swallows may have gone, but there is a time of return; willow trees may have died back, but there is a time of re greening; peach blossoms may have fallen, but they will bloom again. Now, you the wise, tell me, why should our days leave us, never to return? — If they had been stolen by someone, who could it be? Where could he hide then? If they had made the escape themselves, then where could they stay at the moment?
I do not know how many days I have been given to spend, but I do feel my hands are getting empty. Taking stock silently, I find that more than eight thousand days has already slid away from me. Like a drop of water from the point of a needle disappearing into the ocean, my days are dripping into the stream of time, soundless, trace less. Already sweat is starting on my forehead, and tears welling up in my eyes.
Those that have gone have gone for good, those to come keep coming; yet in between, how swift is the shift, in such a rush? When I get up in the morning, the slanting sun marks its presence in my small room in two or three oblongs. The sun has feet, look, he is treading on, lightly and furtively; and I am caught, blankly, in his revolution. Thus — the day flows away through the sink when I wash my hands, wears off in the bowl when I eat my meal, passes away before my day-dreaming gaze as I reflect in silence. I can feel his haste now, so I reach out my hands to hold him back, but he keeps flowing past my withholding hands. In the evening, as I lie in bed, he strides over my body, glides past my feet, in his agile way. The moment I open my eyes and meet the sun again, one whole day has gone. I bury my face in my hands and heaves sigh. But the new day begins to flash past in the sigh.
What can I do, in this bustling world, with my days flying in their escape? Nothing but to hesitate, to rush. What have I been doing in that eight-thousand-day rush, apart from hesitating? Those bygone days have been dispersed as smoke by a light wind, or evaporated as mist by the morning sun. What trace shave I left behind me? Have I ever left behind any gossamer traces at all? I have come to this world, stark-naked; am I to go back, in a blink, in the same stark-nakedness?It is not fair though: why should I have made such a trip for nothing!You the wise, tell me, why should our days leave us, never to return?
A dog is very thirsty. But he only sees some empty pails. There is no water in them. The dog goes on looking for water. He comes to a small house. There is a girl in it. The girl goes out with a pail. “She goes to a well,” the dog thinks and follows her. The dog is right. The girl comes to a well and puts down the pail, and the pail is full of water, there the girl goes back to her house.
“ Water! Great!” the dog says and runs to the well. He jumps into the well without thought.”
The water is good. The dog is happy and drinks much. But he can’t jump out of the well. He waits and waits. But no one comes. “I’m hungry now. I must go out,” he thinks.
At the time a thirsty goat comes to the well. He looks at the water and the dog. “Is the water good?” the goat asks. “ Of course. Come down,” the dog says. Then the goat jumps into the well, too. Then dog is happy. He jumps on the goat’s back and jumps out of the well.
The dog has a look at the goat and says, “Goodbye!” Then he leaves.
A farmer friend once told me his own story.
That day, I dragged the heavy cart wearily to the foot of the mountain. Looking ahead at the long ascent, I could not help but recoil in fear. Thought, today on their own a person absolutely can not pull up, must have someone to help a line, is difficult, just happened to come over a warm-hearted passer-by. He saw my dilemma and said, "It's okay. I'll help you." Said, convenient landing rolled up sleeves, opened a pair of cart posture.
So, I clenched my teeth and pulled hard. In the warm people "come on, come on" the sound of the drum, we finally pulled the car to the top of the slope. When I thanked the warm-hearted man for his help, he said, "You don't need to thank me. I have sprained my back these two days and I can't exert myself at all. I was just yelling 'Come on'. It's up to you to pull this wagon up."
The story of my farmer friend reminds me that the road of life is not the same. A famous man once said, "All that is easy is downhill." The road of life is not smooth, it is not easy to go forward without effort. Many times, just because we give up trying, we miss the opportunity to succeed in vain. The result is a half-assed, fruitless return.
Power of Self Talk
Life is like a big swing, dangling between the depths of happiness and sadness. As soon as we descend down the slope of sadness, we accelerate over the ever-feel-good acclivity of happiness. At times of distress, when we are down we slip over an abyss of emotional trauma and frustrations. One who can rise above the occasion, is the architect of many wins over sorrows.
To come above tougher times you have to pep yourself up, when you are feeling low, lost and confused. This can be done effectively by self-talk. Self-talk is a way of talking to oneself. It can be effectively used for soul searching. When talking to ourselves, we hardly lie as our conscience controls our speech. Self talk is efficient because when we are vocal about our thoughts, it makes a larger impact on our mind.
Our brain then receives the same message from the mind as well as the ears. This repetition pep talks and thoughts fine tunes the performance of brain.
Self-talk is a software, which when properly loaded onto our mind directs ourselves for better results and a healthy mind. Actually many times in our life, we find others advising us to do better in studies, sports, life etc. We usually get bugged by these people and blank our ears out of their constructive suggestions. It is because it doesnt come from within us. And when something comes from within you, you always try your best to do justice to it. Self-talk can thus ameliorate our status.Each one of us has some good points and some bad ones.
Though we hardly admit in pubic, we know in our mind that we could do better in some areas of our personal landscape. This get better attitude can be converted into a practical reality using self-talk.
If you are an introvert and you want to be the gregarious person like you friend next door, all you need to do is talk to yourself. Tell yourself with all the sincerity and emotions that "I can be like him. I am a natural born speaker. I do like people and speaking comes naturally to me. I just have to be ready to listen and speak"。 Suppose you love a person and want to tell him or her, then just say to yourselves "I love her with all my heart. She is the only one and I know it. If I dont let her know, it would be grave injustice on my part.
Every person loves to be loved. Even she will"。 These are just some examples I have explained. Its up to you to program your own mantra. If you are highly optimistic to do better, there is no better motivator than self-talk. So guys start talking.
生活像一具大秋千，总在开心和忧愁间摇摆。每当我们陷入忧愁的低谷时，我们以开始冲向开心的谷顶。在深陷悲痛，跌入感情创伤和绝望的深渊的时候，能够从中走出来的，就是战胜悲伤的赢家。
当你感觉情绪低落，失落和迷惘时，要从艰难中走出，你要不断激励自己。这可以用自我交谈的方式有效地实现。自我交谈其实就是与自己对话，它能够有效地运用于灵魂的探索。当我们和自己谈话时，我们很难说谎，因为我们的良心支配着交谈。自我交谈之所以有效，是因为我们可以听到自己的想法，这对我们思想有很强的影响力。我们的大脑像耳朵一样从思想中接受信息。重复激励的谈话和想法会调节大脑的反应。自我交谈是一个软件，当它被恰如其分地转载我们的思想时，它就能指引我们得到好的结果和一个健康的心态。实际上我闪在生活中常发觉别人劝告自己要在学习、体育和生活等方面做得更好。我们经常对别人在我们耳边的唠叨感到厌烦，对富有建设性的建议也听不进去。这是因为这不是来自我们内心的声音。当这个声音来自你的内心时，你就会全力以赴去实现它。因此，与自己对话可以改善我们的现状。每个人都有优点和弱点。虽然我们不会在公共场合承认，我们清楚自己在个人生活的某些方面可以做得更好。通过自我交谈我们可以做得更好，这个观点就能在生活中变为现实。
如果你是内向型的，你想如你隔壁的朋友那样出众，你所要做的就是和自己交谈。充满诚挚和感情地告诉自己“我可以像他一样，我是个天生的演说家。我确实喜欢人们，和人交谈很自然。我只要准备好倾听和谈话就是了。” 假设你爱一个人，你想告诉他或她，那么就对自己说“我全心全意地爱她，我知道她是我的唯一。如果我不告诉她，这对自己很不公平。每个人都喜欢他人所爱的。她也一样。” 这些只是我用来解释的例子，怎么说取决于你自己。
如果你非常乐观地想做得更好，自我交谈就是最好的办法。所以，开始交谈吧！
A young friend of mine asked me in a letter, "What kind of man should I be?" My answer was, "Be a fighter."
Another friend of mine inquired, "How should I live my life?" Again my answer was, "Be a fighter."
The author of In Praise of the Fighter says:
Riding on the ceaseless rushing torrent of life, I should pursue and overtake it so as to create an even greater and deeper torrent of my own.
If I were a lamp, it would be my duty to light up thick darkness. If I were the sea tide, I would marshal rolling waves to cleanse the beach of all accumulated filth.
This quotation reflects aptly the state of mind of a lighter.
Fighters are badly needed in our time. But such fighters do not necessarily go to the battle- field gun in hand. Their weapons are not necessarily bullets. Their weapons may be knowledge, faith and strong will. They can bring the enemy sure death without drawing his blood.
A fighter is always in pursuit of light. Instead of basking in the sunshine under a clear sky, he holds a burning torch in the darkness of night to illuminate people's way so that they can continue their journey till they see the dawn of a new day. It is the task of a fighter to dispel darkness. Instead of shirking darkness, he braves it and fights the hidden demons and monsters therein. He is determined to wipe them out and win light. He knows no compromise. He will keep on fighting until he wins light.
A fighter is perennially young. He is never irresolute or inactive. He plunges deep into teeming crowds in search of such vermin as flies and venomous mosquitoes. He will fight them relentlessly and refuse to coexist with them under the same sky. To him, life means nothing but continuous fighting. He either survives by winning light, or perishes with his body covered all over with cuts and bruises. In the course of the struggle, it is the "future" that serves as the beacon light to him; the "future" gives people hope and inspiration. He will never lose his youthful vigor.
An old woman having lost the use of her eyes, called in a physician to heal them, and made this bargain with him in the presence of witnesses:
That if he should cure her blindness, he should receive from her a sum of money; but if her infirmity remained, she should give him nothing.
This agreement being made, the physician, time after time, applied his salve to her eyes, and on every visit took something away, stealing all her property little by little.
And when he had got all she had, he healed her and demanded the promised payment.
The old woman, when she recovered her sight and saw none of her goods in her house, would give him nothing.
The physician insisted on his claim, and. as she still refused, summoned her before the judge.
The old woman, standing up in the court, argued: "this man here speaks the truth in what he says; for i did promise to give him a sum of money if i should recover my sight:
But if i continued blind, i was to give him nothing.
Now he declares that I am healed. I, on the contrary affirm that I am still blind; for when I lost the use of my eyes, I saw in my house various chattels and valuable goods: But now, though he swears i am cured of my blindness, i am not able to see a single thing in it."
Extend the Miracle
My skills, my mind, my heart, and my body will stagnate, rot, and die lest I put them to good use. I have unlimited potential. Only a small portion of my brain do I employ; only a paltry amount of my muscles do I flex. A hundredfold or more can I increase my accomplishments of yesterday and this I will do, beginning today.
Nevermore will I be satisfied with yesterdays accomplishments nor will I indulge, anymore, in self-praise for deeds which in reality are too small to even acknowledge. I can accomplish far more than I have, and I will, for why should the miracle which produced me end with my birth? Why can I not extend that miracle to my deeds of today?
And I am not on this earth by chance. I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand. Henceforth will I apply all my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy.
I have been given eyes to see and a mind to think and now I know a great secret of life for I perceive, at last, that all my problems, discouragements, and heartaches are, in truth, great opportunities in disguise. I will no longer be fooled by the garments they wear for mine eyes are open. I will look beyond the cloth and I will not be deceived.
我的技艺，我的头脑，我的心灵，我的身体，若不善加利用，都将随着时间的流逝而迟钝，腐朽，甚至死亡。我的潜力无穷无尽，脑力、体能稍加开发，就能超过以往的任何成就。从今天开始。我就要开发潜力。
我不再因昨日的成绩沾沾自喜，不再为微不足道的成绩目吹自擂。我能做的比已经完成的更好。我的出生并非最后一样奇� 我生来应为高山。而非草芥。从今往后，我要竭尽全力成为群峰之巅。将我的潜能发挥到最大限度。
我有双眼，可以观察；我有头脑，可以思考。现在我已洞悉了一个人生中伟大的奥秘。我发现，一切问题、沮丧、悲伤，都是乔装打扮的机遇之神。我不再被他们的外表所蒙骗，我已睁开双眼，看破了他们的伪装。
Weather Predict A film was on location deep in the. One day an old Indian went up to the director and, "Tomorrow rain." The next day it rained. A later, the Indian went up to the director and said, "Tomorrow." The next day there was a hailstorm. "This Indian is incredible," said the director. He told his secretary to hire the Indian to predict the weather. However, after several successful predictions, the old Indian didnt show up for two weeks. Finally the director sent for him. "I have to shoot a big scene tomorrow," said the director, "and Im depending on you. What will the weather be like?" The 天 Indian shrugged his shoulders. "Dont know," he said. "Radio is broken."
The Power of the Dream When someone looks into your eyes they should see something alive within you. Having a dream is like owning a lighthouse1 which directs you on your journey. At every turn we come across its mystery. At each new level we become more of the person we were meant to become. In lonely times, when we pass through a storm of disappointment, we find our faith is unshaken, our strength still strong. Believe in your faith. Set the vision before your eyes. Write down your most sincere dreams and when the opportunity comes, step into your dream. It may take one season or more, but the result is the same. Make big dreams and then go out and make them realities. The highest hopes of the dreamer are revealed with every step taken in their journey to the impossible. For a season we must protect the dream so that it can grow quietly on the inside. But if we tenderly care for our deepest expectations, slowly but surely the dream will become new life. Dreaming is an act of faith. The light of your expectations will cast off the shadows of a disbelieving world. God has given us the dreamer as a gift to light an unbelieving world. Find your treasure within and cherish2 it. Tomorrow is waiting for you to take the first step.

Since the book was published, I have often received messages from various aspects, the question is nothing more than how to get rid of loneliness, how to look at the future, how to look at the dream. Often I didn't know how to answer them until New Year's Day, when I was still writing at 4 am and closed my computer, bleary-eyed, I suddenly realized: Those who like you will not like you one day, those you grasp will one day not catch, those you want to realize the dream may not be realized at all, those who once thought very important will one day become unimportant.
But it doesn't really matter. Years later, when you look back, the only thing that makes you feel real and proud is that you walked through life with your head held high.
I may never get rid of the so-called loneliness, also can not see the so-called future, also can not understand why so hard to realize the dream, but I still do it. For example, if I told you the ending of her relationship at the beginning of the theater, you would say it doesn't matter, I know, I still love you, or you would turn away. If it were me, I would definitely like her again, that's all.
I would rather let others think that I am a Transformer poison does not penetrate every aspect of tireless, I don't let others see me sad tired fall down lost. I don't like to complain, because I know no one likes to hear complaints.
I feel very presumptuous and uncomfortable about trying to explain out loud the things Ibelieve in. But I do think that all human problems are in some way related to each other, soperhaps if people compare their experiences they may discover something in common in huntingthe answers.
I am a very fortunate man for I lead a full and what is for me a happy life. I say this eventhough I happen to have had, in the course of it, a couple of severe personal blows.
My first wife collapsed and died one day while she and I were ice skating, after eighteen years ofa most happy existence together. My only son, a sergeant in the army combat engineers, waskilled in Italy in the last war. Nevertheless, these tragedies did not throw me completely and Ihave been able to fill my life anew with happiness.
I do not mean to sound calloused. Those blows hurt me deeply. I guess that two basicallyimportant things helped me most to recover. One is the fact that I have come to see life as agamble. The other is a belief in what some people call the hereafter. I try to live fully so thatwhen and if my luck changes there will be little room for regret or recrimination over time lost ormisspent. My belief in the hereafter is wrapped in the intangible but stubborn thoughts of alayman. Very likely I would get lost in trying to describe or defend, by cold logic, my belief inGod but nobody could argue me out of it.
I have come to believe that I owe life as much as it owes me, and I suppose that explains thisfine satisfaction I get out of endeavoring to do a job to the best of what ability I have, and outof helping somebody else.
As a kid I used to ride a rake in the hayfields. I got a tremendous kick out of trying to sweepevery field clean as a whistle. Here I made a surprising and happy discovery: that there couldbe actual enjoyment in the exercise of thoroughness and responsibility, and that duty didn’thave to be a drudge.
I don’t know exactly why, but I like to do things for other people. Not only familyresponsibilities, work on a hospital board, and various church organizations but also the mostinconsequential things that might hardly seem worth the time. My office happens to be onIndependence Square and now and then I have occasion to direct a tourist to the Liberty Bell orfill him in on a little of the history of Philadelphia. The tourist doesn’t seem to mind and it makesme feel good. I’m afraid I’m not very profound. I have tried to comprehend why somethingso simple and so sound as the Golden Rule is so often forgotten or held in disrepute. I canonly say—and I say this quite selfishly—that I have found it a good investment. It has paid me avery high return, undoubtedly more than I deserve.
我想，若是大声解释我的信仰，不仅会给人一种自大的感觉，也会使我感到不安。但是我认为，从某种程度上来说，人类所有的问题都是息息相关的。因此，倘若人们比较一下他们的经历，也许就能在寻找答案的过程中发现某些共同之处。
我是一个幸运的人，因为我的生活充实而幸福。不管怎样，我依然会这么说，即使曾经的多次不幸给我带来了沉重的打击。我与第一个妻子共同度过了18年幸福的婚姻生活，然而在我们去滑冰的那天，她突然倒下，撒手人寰。我唯一的儿子是一名工兵军士，二战期间，在意大利阵亡。然而，我并没有被这些不幸彻底打倒，而是再次让我的生活充满幸福。
我并不是想让大家觉得我冷酷无情。这些不幸确实对我造成了很大的伤害。我想我之所以能够重新振作起来，其中有两个重要的原因：一是我认为生活其实就是一场赌博，二是我对人们所说的来世深信不疑。为了在晦运时，不至于因虚度时光而后悔或自责，我努力让自己充实地生活。作为一个普通信徒，无形而坚定的思想正是我信仰来世的来源。我信仰上帝，也许我难以用冷冰冰的逻辑来描述这个信仰或为它辩护，但谁也无法说服我放弃它。
我相信，我对生活付出多少，就会得到多少。因此，我认为，我最大的满足正是来源于尽自己最大的努力去做一份工作或是帮助别人。
孩提时，我常会在干草地上开耙草机。在将每片草地耙干净的过程中，我总会获得极大的成就感，并惊奇地发现：尽心而尽责地完成一件事会为你带来真正的快乐，而尽责也并不一定是做苦工。
我很喜欢为人服务。我不仅为家庭负责，在一家医院的理事会及各种教会组织中工作，我还会去做一些看似浪费时间的最无关紧要的琐事。我的办公室正好在独立广场，因此我偶尔会为去独立钟的游客带路，一路上给他讲一些费城的历史。虽然游客并不在乎这些，但我却乐此不疲。我自己并非知识渊博之人。我常常想弄明白，像黄金定律那样简单而合理的箴言为何总被人们遗忘或不屑一顾。我只能说，也自私地说，我发现为人服务是一项最成功的投资。毫无疑问，它给予我的回报远远高于我的应得。
It is never too late to be what you might have been.
Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sorrow, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person. With each passing day we learn to handle various situations.
Love
Love plays a pivotal role on out life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could go hayward and also become cruel and ferocious. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who shower us with unconditional love and care, they teach us about what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we always tend to take this for granted. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to others feelings. Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better.
Happiness and Sorrow
Materialistic happiness is short-lived, but happiness achieved by bringing a smile on others face gives a certain level of fulfillment. Peace of mind is the main link to happiness. No mind is happy without peace. We realize the true worth of happiness when we are in sorrow. Sorrow is basically due to death of a loved one, failure and despair. But these things are temporary and pass away.
Failure and Success
Failure is the path to success. It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way. Success brings in money, fame, pride and self-respect. Here it becomes very important to keep our head on out shoulder. The only way to show our gratitude to God for bestowing success on us is by being humble, modest, courteous and respectful to the less fortunate ones.
Hope and Despair
Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour, because after every night there is a day. Nothing remains the same we have only one choice keep moving on in life and be hopeful.
Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday, for it has passed and is beyond our control. Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be bright or dull. So the only alternative is work hard today, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.
An old man in a high-speed trains， accidentally bought the new shoes out from a window， surrounded by people who feel sorry But the elderly immediately second shoe from the window go away. This move is even more surprised. Explained that the elderly： "This shoe， no matter how expensive， for me has been useless， if there is who can pick up a pair of shoes， maybe he can wear it!"
Tip 6： successful at giving up， good to see from the loss of value.
一个老人在高速行驶的火车上，不小心把刚买的新鞋从窗口掉了一只，周围的人倍感惋惜，不料老人立即把第二只鞋也从窗口扔了下去。这举动更让人大吃一惊。老人解释说：“这一只鞋无论多么昂贵，对我而言已经没有用了，如果有谁能捡到一双鞋子，说不定他还能穿呢！”
秘诀6：成功者善于放弃，善于从损失中看到价值。
What I believe, what I value most, is transitoriness.
But is not transitoriness - the perishableness of life - something very sad? No! It is the verysoul of existence. It imparts value, dignity, interest to life. Transitoriness creates time - and"time is the essence." Potentially at least, time is the supreme, most useful gift.
Time is related to - yes, identical with - everything creative and active, every process towarda higher goal.
Without transitoriness, without beginning or end, birth or death, there is no time, either.Timelessness - in the sense of time never ending, never beginning - is a stagnant nothing. It isabsolutely uninteresting.
Life is possessed by tremendous tenacity. Even so its presence remains conditional, and asit had a beginning, so it will have an end. I believe that life, just for this reason, is exceedinglyenhanced in value, in charm.
One of the most important characteristics distinguishing man from all other forms of nature ishis knowledge of transitoriness, of beginning and end, and therefore of the gift of time.
In man transitory life attains its peak of animation, of soul power, so to speak. This does notmean alone would have a soul. Soul quality pervades all beings. But man's soul is most awakein his knowledge of the interchangeability of the term "existence" and "transitoriness"。
To man time is given like a piece of land, as it were, entrusted to him for faithful tilling; a spacein which to strive incessantly, achieve self-realization, more onward and upward. Yes, with theaid of time, man becomes capable of wresting the immortal from the mortal.
Deep down, I believe - and deem such belief natural to every human soul - that in the universityprime significance must be attributed to this earth of ours. Deep down I believe that creation ofthe universe out of nothingness and of life out of inorganic state ultimately aimed at thecreation of man. I believe that man is meant as a great experiment whose possible failure ofman's own guilt would be paramount to the failure of creation itself.
Whether this belief be true or not, man would be well advised if he behaved as though it were.
没有短暂，没有开始与结束、生与死，时间也就不复存在。永恒是毫无意义的停滞，它意味着时间永远没有结束，也永远没有开始，绝对令人乏味。
短暂是我的信仰，也是我认为最重要的东西。
然而短暂，如生命的消逝，不是非常哀伤的事情吗？不！它正是生命存在的精髓。它赋予了生命价值、尊严和情趣。短暂创造了时间——而“时间正是其本质”。至少，时间是至高的，是最有用的礼物。
时间与所有富有创造力和活力的事物，及每一个达到更高目标的进步息息相关——是的，它甚至等同于这一切。
没有短暂，没有开始与结束、生与死，时间也就不复存在。永恒是毫无意义的停滞，它意味着时间永远没有结束，也永远没有开始，绝对令人乏味。
生命顽强无比。即便如此，它的存在也依赖于一定的条件，正如它有始亦有终。也因如此，我坚信，生命的价值与魅力将会不断地增长。
人同自然界其他事物之间最重要的区别之一就是，人懂得短暂、始与终，所以也了解时间是一种恩赐。
可以这么说，在人身上，短暂的生命达到了其活力与精神力量的巅峰。这并不是说只有人拥有灵魂。万物皆有灵性。但是对于“存在”与“短暂”的可互换性，只有人的大脑才能最清楚地意识到。
对于人类来说，时间就如赐予的一片土地，等待他去辛勤耕种；是一个让他不断奋斗进取，实现自我价值，不断前进向上的空间。是的，在时间的帮助下，人可以从有限的生命中获得永恒。
在内心深处，我相信宇宙中最为重要的当属我们的地球，� 从内心深处，我相信混沌中宇宙的创造，无机中生命的萌芽，最终都是为了创造人类。我相信人类本身便是一项伟大的实验，它可能会因人类自身的罪恶而失败，但这
无论这个信仰是否真实，人类如果能依此行事，将会获得更为有益的忠告。

Part car, part jet fighter, part spaceship, Bloodhound SSC aims to be the first land vehicle to break the 1,000mph barrier. One of the key challenges has been to design the wheels. How do you create the fastest wheels in history, make them stable and reliable at supersonic speeds, and with limited resources?
部分汽车、部分喷气式飞机、部分宇宙飞船，猎犬号超级汽车的目标是做世界上第一辆时速突破1000英里的汽车。而这面临的一项关键挑战是车轮的设计。如果换做是你，你会如何在有限的资源下发明出超音速汽车上用的轮子呢？
After much deliberation, and devising ideas that pushed the boundaries of material technology, Mark Chapman, chief engineer of the Bloodhound project said the team decided to take a step back and change the way they were trying to solve problems. “There’s very little we’ve actually developed that’s new,” he says, “what’s unique is how we apply technologies.”
猎犬号项目的总工程师马克·查普曼思来想去，觉得材料还是不够好。最后他和他的团队决定退回一步、换个角度看有没有别的办法。“我们实际创新的东西并不多”，马克说：“我们的独特之处在于应用技术的方式别具一格。”
They adopted an approach called the design of experiments – a mathematical technique of problem solving through doing lots of little experiments and then looking at the statistics all glued together. “All of a sudden, where we’d been knocking our head against the wall for maybe two, three, four months, we came up with a wheel design that would hold together and was strong enough,” he says.
他们采用实验设计的方法做了很多的小实验，综合所得的数据再得出精确设计。“花了三四个月绞尽脑汁做尽各种实验之后，很突然地我们做出了一个大胆的设计：把各种可用的（飞机、飞船所用的）技术都融合在一辆车上，从而使它足够强大。”马克说。
Don’t wait for someday. This is the day, this is the moment, and this is your opportunity to live.
不要等待未来的某天。今天，就在此刻，就是你活出精彩的机会。
Let go of any thoughts of limitation. You deserve every joy you can imagine and you’re fully able of creating them all. Stop settling for what’s only easy or comfortable or convenient. Give yourself the respect you deserve and take on the difficult challenges that bring real fulfilment1.
摒弃任何思想的局限性。你值得享有任何想象中的快乐，而且你完全有能力创造这些快乐。不要满足于简便和舒适的事物。你应该给自己应有的尊重，接受那些能让你实现梦想的艰巨挑战。
Give your life some beautiful and meaningful substance2 today. Remind yourself of how fortunate you are to have each moment, and sincerely fill those moments with richness.
今天，请让你的生命变得美好和有意义。提醒自己能拥有现在的每一刻你是多么幸运，要用心地、充实地度过每一刻。
Admit and be thankful for what you desire to experience, to express, to give and to live. Then, fully use the power of your purpose and make it happen. The best of life is never out of reach. It is yours to fulfil, right now.
承认你所渴望去体验、去表达、去给予、去经历的事情，并对其心怀感激。然后，充分利用你强大的意志力，使这些事情成为现实。生命中最美好的事情并不是遥不可及的。现在就是你实现它的时刻。
