Self-Confidence Is Essential to Success
Nothing succeeds like confidence.When you are truly confident,it radiatesfrom you like sunlight,and attracts success to you like amagnet.
Its important to believe in yourself.Believe that you can do it under anycircumstances,because if you believe you can,then you really will.The beliefkeeps you searching for answers,which means that pretty soon you will getthem.
Confidence is more than an attitude. It comes from knowing exactly whereyou are going and exactly how you are going to get there. It comes from actingwith integrity and confidence.It comes from a strong sense of purpose.It comesfrom a strong commitment to take responsibility,rather than just letting lifehappen.
One way to develop self-confidence is to do the thing you fear and to get arecord of successful experiences behind you.
Confidence is compassionate and understanding.It is not arrogant. Arroganceis born out of fear and insecurity,while confidence comes from strength andintegrity.
Confidence is not just believing you can do it. Confidence is knowing youcan do it.Know that you are capable of accomplish anything you want,and liveyour life withconfidence.
Anything can be achieved through focused,determined effort andself-confidence.If your life is not what you want it to be,you have the power tochange it,and you must make the changes on a moment by moment basis. Live yourpriorities. Live with your goals and your plan of action. Live each moment withyour priorities in mind. Act with your own purpose,and you will have the lifeyouwant.
We have only one earth.But now,the environment becomes worse and worse.Asyou know,there's no enough clean water for people.So many of them lose theirlives because of water.In a lot of countries,people have to cut trees forliving.So there's nothing to keep water from running away.Also we have pollutedthe land,the river and the air.Some people may say:we are the masters ofnature.Now the "master" seems to be confronted with problems that are far beyondhis control.
the holes of the ozone layer make the earth less suitable to live for somecreatures including human beings.Facing all the disasters made by ourselves,wehave the responsibility to deal with the problem.
we must do something useful to protect our environment.We can plant treesand take good care of them.We can save the water and ask our parents to do so.Wecan't throw any litter onto the ground and we should collect them forrecycling.If we take good care of our earth today,it will be more beautifultomorrow.
我们只有一个地球.但是现在,环境变得越来越糟.如你所知,也没有足够的清洁饮水的人.所以许多人失去了他们的生命,因为水.在很多国家,人们不得不砍树的生活.所以没有什么能阻止水的流失.我们还污染了土地,河流和空气.有些人可能会说:我们是自然的主人.现在的“主人”似乎面临的问题远远超出他的控制。
臭氧层的空洞使得地球不再适宜于某些生物包括人类生活.面对着自己造成的灾难,我们有责任来处理这个问题。
我们必须做些什么来保护环境.我们可以种树,好好照顾他们.我们可以节约用水,并要求我们的父母这样做.我们不能把垃圾丢在地上,我们应该收集回收.如果我们好好照顾我们的地球上,这将是更加美好的明天。
We all live in this world.We maybe feel unlucky sometimes.But, as you know,in this world there have been a lot of people who can't talk, walk, speak,listen to and see anything.
The invalid need our concerns.If you see an invalid person,you should notjust watch him all the time. You can show your respect to him. Let him feel thegood of the world.
Our government should put benefits into its policy that can make theinvalid happier. The invalid need our help. Please don't grudge your smile .Youcan keep it on you face.
If we concern more of the invaild, our society will become more and morefriendly.Violence will cease.We'll live safely.
The classmate of everyone, teacher: hello! Today, I want to lecture on the topic of "my ideal".
Each person, has a very different ideal. If a person has no ideal, just like sailing on the sea ship didn't sail, so, a person's ideal is extremely important.

I also know that being a writer, "in the original life, above life", so I have also prepared a diary. Take out every night, just record the meaningful or interesting things. It's okay when double, can recall memories of the past, and write a composition, take out can also reference reference, better material into writing.
A small poem, a short article, is is my childhood "little writers" little trace. And writing on "little writers" can add a lot of light. So, I will go forward to the front of the unknown, big step. Remember my ideal, struggle for it!
This is a glass of water, tasteless, right? However if you add sugar, itwill taste sweet, but if you add vinegar, it will become same istrue with our life the flavor is created by our choices.
If kindness is added to a strange you will have a friend; but if hostilityis added, you will have an love is added to a pile of red bricks youwill have a home, but if hatred is add to those bricks , you will have anconcentration camp.
So my dear friends, never complain that life is boring and the world don’t like the taste of your life, change the ingredients.

It was my first time to write the real article, always fear to write in the heart is bad, will be criticized by the teacher, students will be a joke. According to the guidance of the teacher, I just want to clear through after school life. The teacher emphasized to highlight the word "wonderful". The more I think more difficult, I don't know how to show the "wonderful". Was particularly annoyed, I remember the teacher said: "the interesting plot, intense scenes, moving pictures, different name is wonderful." So I decided to write the last story competition.
In the article. Write me to the competition area, at the sight of the lively scene, was tense. Write this part I highlighted the psychological activity in particular.

China is also a dream, I dream. China is day by day prosperous, the Chinese are day by day rich. If China is an ocean, I am a drop of water, only hundreds of millions of water droplets together, can become the sea. I want to fly dream, thousands of people to fly dream, China dream can be realized to fly over.
Fly, my dream! The Chinese dream, fly!

Self-confidence, as is approved by research and practice, has an amazinglypowerful influence on the output of people’s activities. Patients who believethat they’ll recover soon generally cures faster than those who think theywon’t. Students with optimistic characters usually provide better performance,even if they work the same hard as others. Although someone may regard suchconclusion as superstitious, it does take place everyday and everywhere. Neuralscientists have discovered that, when a man feels confident, his brain willsecrete some kinds of hormone that boost brain activity and improve theefficiency of his immune system. In contrast, a melancholic brain is suppressedby other chemicals and cannot fully exhibit its potential.
To help building up self-confidence, you can take the following two steps.First, identify your merits and value them. If you constantly compare yourweakness to others’ advantages, you’d only gain frustration rather thanconfidence. Second, track every little progress you’ve made and review themfrequently. You may not possibly become perfectly successful in one day, but ifonly you can see yourself growing gradually, surely you’re on the right way.There’re also other methods making you more confident that depend on yourself tofind out, and they’re all necessary elements to make you more competitive inyour area.

And most importantly, it is a new beginning for your life, a beginning where you are going to make new desicisions, take new actions, make new friends, and take your life to a totally unprecedented level! You know all this is real as long as you are confident,passionate and committed! And you are confident, you are passionate, you are committed!
You will no longer fear making new sounds, showing new facial expressions, using your body in new ways,approaching new people, and asking new questions. You will live every single day of your life with absolute passion, and you will show your passion through the words you speak and the actions you take. You will focus all your time and effort on the most important goals of your life. You will never succumb to challenges of hardships. You will never waver in your pursuit of excellence.

In the pitch-black night, stung by jellyfish, choking on salt water,singing to herself, hallucinating, Diana Nyad just kept on swimming. And thatshow she finally achieved her lifetime goal as an athlete, an extreme 100-mileswim from Cuba to Florida, at age 64. Hear her story.
Its the fifth time Diana Nyad stand on the Cuban shore believing again thatshe’s going to make it all the way across that vast, dangerous wilderness of anocean.
Life is about the journey, but not really the destination. Weve been on ajourney. Lets face it, were all on a one-way street. What are we going to do aswe go forward to have no regrets looking backTeddy Roosevelt quote was floatingaround in her brain over the past years in training. It says, "You go ahead andsit back in your comfortable chair as a critic or an observer, while the braveone gets in the ring, engages, gets bloody and dirty, and fails over and overand over again. Yet he isnt afraid or timid and lives life in a bold way." Whenyou achieve your dreams, its not so much what you get as who you have become inachieving them.
You have a dream and obstacles in front of you as we all do. None of usever get through this life without heartache, without turmoil. Believe inperseverance and have faith. Get back up again when you can get knocked down andyou will find your way.
"I have three messages," said the breathless Nyad. “The first is we shouldnever ever give up. The second is you are never too old to chase your dreams.And the third is that it looks like the most solitary endeavor in the world butit takes a team.”
Hellen Keller said, “Although the world is full of suffering, it is fullalso of the overcoming of it.” People always fail because they stop trying, notbecause they encounter the unbeatable difficulties. "Never, never give up" meansto keep trying and never stop working for your goals. I think it’s a very goodpiece of advice for all of us and this is the most important thing that can helpus to achieve our goals.
I am quite sure that everybody knows Thomas Edison. Why so many peopletried to invent the electric lamp, but only Thomas Edison succeedIf Edison, likemany others, had been stilted by repeated failures, there would be no vibrantmodern cities at night. His success proves that if a person is not scared byseemingly insurmountable adversity, he can find the way to success..
In my opinion, never stop working for your goal doesn’t mean you must besuccessful. It doesnt even mean that you must achieve your goal, but its veryimportant to keep it in your mind. There are enough unfavorable conditions whichmake our lives difficult, but what important for us is to make efforts towardsyour goal or your dream. If you have given your best for your goal or yourdream, whether you succeed or not, at least you wont leave any regret in yourlife.
Dont give up working for your goal or your dream. If you succeed, you willtaste great joy in your life. If you dont succeed, you wont have regret in yourlife because you have given your best.
Dreams are hard to follow, hold on and there will be tomorrow. You willfind the way with the strength to carry on. Don’t give up.
Life is unfair.
Success is not measured on the days when the sun shines. Success is measured on the dark, stormy, cloudy days.
If you can't absorb failure, you're never gonna meet success.The thing about life is it's not always easy, and you can't always win. Some point of your life, it hits you. It hits you really really hard.
The person you love doesn't love you back, you get fired, you lose a family member. At some point of your life, you're gonna hit rock bottom.
You're paralyzed, you're like, "Why?" And that why can really really destroy you. Once you start asking yourself, "Why me? Why not the others, why me?
I'm actually a good person, I never did something significantly bad, why the hell did it hit me?" Because that's life.
Life is unfair. Success is not measured on the days when the sun shines. Success is measured on the dark, stormy, cloudy days. And if you can't absorb failure, you're never gonna meet success.
As you slowly open your eyes,look around,notice where the light comes into your room;listen carefully,see if there are new sounds you can recognize;feel with your body and spirit,and see if you can sense the freshness in the air.
Yes,yes,yes,it’s a new day,it’s a different day,and it’s a bright day!And most importantly,it is a new beginning for your life,a beginning where you are going to make new desicisions,take new actions,make new friends,and take your life to a totally unprecedented level!
In your mind’s eye,you can see clearly the things you want to have,the paces you intend to go,the relationships you desire to develop,and the positions you aspire to reach.
You can hear your laughters of joy and happiness on the day when everything happens as you dream.
You can see the smiles on the people around you when the magic moment strikes.
You can feel your face is getting red,your heart is beating fast,and your blood is rushing all over your body,to every single corner of your being!
You know all this is real as long as you are confident,passionate and committed!And you are confident,you are confident,passionate and committed!
You will no longer fear making new sounds,showing new facial expressions,using your body in new ways,approaching new people,and asking new questions.
You will live every single day of your life with absolute passion,and you will show your passion through the words you speak and the actions you take.
You will focus all your time and effort on the most important goals of your life.You will never succumb to challenges of hardships.
You will never waver in your pursuit of excellence.After all,you are the best,and you deserve the best!

good evening , ladies and gentlemen . i am joy and glad to give you a speech about stress , yes , just the topic you see on the screen.
psychologist tell us that stress is a state of worry caused by the problem of living , such as too much work or study , heavy responsibilities , and quickened pace of life .
statistics show that stress comes from every detail in our life . financial problems , poor health , being laid off may be the stress that most adults now suffering . as students in the university , we are also under our special stress . while study , having to take various tests and submit a project against a deadline may put a great pressure on us . and the things make us felt stressed may be our parents’s greater expectations on us than we could reach . later , when we are likely to graduate , some other problems will also annoy us . i think we will worry a lot about our ability to compete in the job market and how we can best use what we’ve learned at college in our future job .
my brother-in-law opened the bottom drawer of my sisters bureau and lifted out a tissue-wrapped package. this, he said, is not a slip. this is lingerie. he discarded the tissue and handed me the slip.
it was exquisite, silk, handmade and trimmed with a cobweb of lace. the price tag with an astronomical figure on it was still attached.
jan bought this the first time we went to new york, at least 8 or 9 years ago. she never wore it. she was saving it for a special occasion.
well, i guess this is the occasion.
he took the slip from me and put it on the bed, with the other clothes we were taking to the mortician. his hands lingered on the soft material for a moment, then he slammed the drawer shut and turned to me, dont ever save anything for a special occasion. every day you re alive is a special occasion.
i remembered those words through the funeral and the days that followed when i helped him and my niece attend to all the sad chores that follow an unexpected death. i thought about them on the plane returning to california from the midwestern town where my sisters family lives. i thought about all the things that she hadnt seen or heard or done. i thought about the things that she had done without realizing that they were special.
im still thinking about his words, and theyve changed the weeds in the garden. im spending more time with my family and friends and less time in committee meetings. whenever possible, life should be a pattern of experience to savour, not endure. im trying to recognize these moment now and cherish them.
im not saving anything; we use our good china and crystal for every special. event such as losing a pound, getting the sink unstopped, the first camellia blossom… i wear my good blazer to the market if i feel like it. my theory is if i look prosperous, i can shell out $28. 49 for one small bag of groceries without wincing. im not saving my good perfume for special parties s; clerks in hardware stores and tellers in banks have noses that function as well as my party going friends.
someday and one of these days are losing their grip on my vocabulary. if its worth seeing or hearing or doing, i want to see and hear and do it now. im not sure what my sister wouldve done had she know that she wouldnt be here for the tomorrow we all take for granted.
i think she would have called family members and a few close friends. she might have called a few former friends to apologize, and mend fences for past squabbles. i like to think she would have gone out for a chinese dinner, her favorite food. im guessing. ill never know.
its those little things left undone that would make me angry if i knew that my hours were limited. angry because i put off seeing good friends whom i was going to get in touch with someday. angry because i hadnt written certain letters that i intended to write one of these days. angry and sorry that i didnt tell my husband and daughter often enough how much i truly love them.
im trying very hard not to put off, hold back, or save anything that would add laughter and luster to our lives. and every morning when i open my eyes, i tell myself that every day, every minute, every breath truly, is... a gift from god.
ladies and gentlemen , good afternoon! i’m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech. today my topic is “youth”. i hope you will like it , and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.
first i want to ask you some questions:
1、do you know what is youth?
2、how do you master your youth?
youth
youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind ; it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness ; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life .
youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for adventure over the love of ease. this often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20 . nobody grows old merely by a number of years . we grow old by deserting our ideals.
years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul . worry , fear , self –distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust .
whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ‘s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living . in the center of your heart and my heart there’s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long as you are young .
when the aerials are down , and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old ,even at 20 , but as long as your aerials are up ,to catch waves of optimism , there is hope you may die young at 80.
thank you!

We, leaving ignorance ushered in our youth. Youth, let us unbridled,relaxed, appreciate the wind that freedom, feel the cloud that comfortable,because youth gives us the peak of life, we do not need to mature, we are nolonger ignorant, we only persistent. Positive energy in youth. Strong energyhelps me to support a firm belief, so that I am full of confidence in achallenging tomorrow.
Life is the pursuit of ideal, ideal is the indicator of life, lost the roleof the lamp, will lose the courage of life. Therefore, only by adhering to thelofty ideals of life, will not be lost in the sea of life. Tolstoy will be theideal of life is divided into a lifetime of ideal, the ideal of a stage, theideal of a year, the ideal of a month, even the ideal of a day, an hour, aminute. When you hear this, students, do you think of your ideal?
Whose youth is not sad? Whose youth never want to give up? Who's youthwithout setbacks and difficulties? But, I no longer fear, I know there will be akind of positive energy in my side, like hot sunshine warm my heart, take me toa better tomorrow. And I, will also become the positive energy of others, do mybest to encourage and warm like I once helpless people.
The flower season of life is the spring of life, it is beautiful, butshort. As a college student should be in this period, study hard, work hard,find a piece of their own sky. Youth is the hope of the motherland, the futureof the nation. Everyone governs his own tomorrow.
One philosopher said, " the dream has gone many ways, wake up or in bed. "it vividly tells us a truth: people can't lie in the dream of ideal life. Yes,people not only want to have an ideal, but also bold fantasy, but also want towork hard to do, lying in the ideal waiting for a new start, if not only in thedistant future, even have will lose. Students, are you also wandering in thedream of ideal?
Predecessors said well, " aspiring people set long ambition, no ambitionpeople often aspire to", those who have no ambition " ambition", is a dream, isthe so-called " ideal", they put their blueprint structure painted againbeautiful, perfect, also is just a castle in the air, mirage. Students, are youa man of long ambition, or often determined? In the green years, whenever I amsad and confused, wandering helpless, there are always some people or things toencourage me, sending out a positive light warm me.
Be a person with positive energy, let oneself have the power to moveforward. Positive energy is a powerful energy, it is bound to include a positivedriving force, only in this way can make your studies, career, quality of life,etc. progress. No power is a terrible thing, just like a car without gasoline,rockets without fuel, plants no longer absorb sunlight, you will only chaos toevery day, do the same thing, to this point naturally do what to do, there is nobig goal and ideal. Isn't this terrible enough? Are you willing to silence likea pool of stagnant water standing still, also don't want to more power to meetthe daily sun add energy? Of course not. when you have positive energy, you willnaturally take your steps and be motivated to move to a new starting point.
Youth needs positive energy, positive energy will insert wings for us tofly to the vast blue sky! Finally, I want to use Liang Qichao's words to endtoday's speech: " young wisdom is the wisdom of the country, the rich is therich, young strong is strong, young progress is the progress of the country,young male in the earth, the male in the earth. " let's sprinkle sweat all theway, drink all the way dusty, chew a hard, let youth continue to burn under thered flag; May every young man embrace his ideals and March on the voyage oflife.

I love English--英语演讲稿As everyone knows,English is very important today.It has been used everywhere in the world.It has become the most common language on Internet and for international trade. If we can speak English well,we will have more chance to succeed.Because more and more people have taken notice of it,the number of the people who go to learn English has increased at a high speed.
But for myself,I learn English not only because of its importance and its usefulness,but also because of my love for it.When I learn English, I can feel a different way of thinking which gives me more room to touch the world.When I read English novels,I can feel the pleasure from the book which is different from reading the translation.When I speak English, I can feel the confident from my words.When I write English,I can see the beauty which is not the same as our Chinese...
I love English,it gives me a colorful dream.I hope I can travel around the world one day. With my good English, I can make friends with many people from different contries.I can see many places of great intrests.I dream that I can go to London,because it is the birth place of English.
I also want to use my good English to introduce our great places to the English spoken people,I hope that they can love our country like us.
I know, Rome was not built in a day. I believe that after continuous hard study, one day I can speak English very well.
If you want to be loved, you should learn to love and be lovable. So I believe as I love English everyday , it will love me too.
I am sure that I will realize my dream one day!
Thank you!
亲爱的老师,同学们:
我很高兴可以在这个课堂上做一次演讲。这一次,我想谈谈英语。我的话题是我爱英语。
正如每个人所知,英语在今天十分重要。它已经被应用到世界的各个角落。它已经成为商业上最为通用的一门语言并广泛的用于国际贸易。如果我们能说好英语,我们就有更多的机会成功。因为越来越多的人注意到这一点,学英语的人数正在已很高的速度增长。
但是对我而言,我学英语不仅仅因为它的重要性以及它的实用性,更是因为我喜爱英语。当我学英语时,我可以体会到一种不同的思维方式,它可以给我更多接触世界的空间。当我读英语小说时,我能感受到不同于阅读翻译文的快乐。当我说英语时,我可以感到自信。当我写英语时,我能够感到不同于汉语的那种美
我爱英语,它给了我一个色彩斑斓的梦。我希望有朝一日我可以畅游世界,用我流利的英语,我可以和世界各地的人交友。我能看到许多的名胜。我希望我能够到伦敦去,因为那里是英语的故乡。
我也希望用我流利的英语来将我们的名胜介绍给说英语的朋友,我希望他们可以像我们一样的爱我们的国家。
我知道,罗马不是一天筑成的。(成功需要日积月累。)我相信在持续不断的努力学习下,总有一天我可以拥有一口流利的英语。
如果你想被爱,你就应该学着去爱他人。所以我相信我对英语的爱定将换来它对我的爱。
我相信总有一天我会实现我的梦!
谢谢!

now we are facing two problems of global warming and a shortage of natural resources, both of which are getting more and more serious day by day. thus, it is important for us to promote a low-carbon lifestyle.
low-carbon lifestyle covers many aspect of our life like transportation, traveling, home-heating, and so on. in order to promote a low-carbon life, some plans must be carried out as follows. firstly, don’t waste any electricity and water. remember to turn off the lights and water taps unless we use them. secondly, we had better take the subways or bus to work, so as to reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide. thirdly, we should use cloth bags for shopping instead of plastic bags, and use recyclable bowls and chopsticks instead of disposable ones, for it can not only save resources, but also reduce pollution. what’s more, it is of great significance to plant more trees, since trees can balance the carbon dioxide emissions.
in a word, if we live a low-carbon life from now on, we will have a better environment and more resources left for our descendants.
如今我们面临着两大环境问题:全球变暖和自然资源匮乏,且情况日益严重。由此可见,提倡低碳生活的重要性。
低碳生活方式包括了我们生活的很多方面,比如交通、旅行、室内取暖等。为了促进低碳生活,我们应该采取以下的行动。首先,不要浪费水电。要记得随手关灯,用水完后随手关闭水龙头。其次,我们最好坐地铁或是公交车上班,这样可以减少碳排放。第三,我们购物时应该用布袋替换塑料袋;使用可循环利用的碗筷,不使用一次性用品。因为这样不仅节约资源,也减少污染。此外,大量植树也很重要,因为树木可以平衡二氧化碳排放量。
总之,如果我们现在开始低碳生活,我们将会拥有跟美好的环境,还为我们的子孙后代节约资源。

是的,学会感恩,是一种情怀,学会感恩,更是一种情操.作为教师和学生的.我们,最要感恩的就是学校了。学校给我们了一个人生成长的大舞台:宽敞明亮的教室,崭新的桌椅,冷暖空调、以及多媒体设施,为我们提供了一个优美的学习环境。窗明几净的图书阅览一体室,为我们提供了畅游知识的海洋;平坦美丽的大操场,为我们提供了锻炼身体的好去处,还有陶艺室,电脑室、舞蹈室、多功能报告厅等等,无不是学校对我们奉献出的无私的爱!
可是,在这些美丽的地方,却常常有着一些不和谐的音符。在图书阅览一体室,有的同学看完书后,乱扔乱放,不知道放回原处,更有甚者还有撕书、拿书的现象;当红绿相间的人工大操场向我们敞开它无私的怀抱时,又有一些不和谐的景象刺痛了我们的眼睛:各种各样的纸屑,五颜六色的糖纸,还有散落在各个角落的瓜子壳、口香糖等等这些举不胜举! 演讲稿
we often hear people say,"never give up."these can be encouraging words and words of determination.a person who believes in them will keep trying to reach your goal no matter how many times he fails.in my opinion,the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have.therefore,i believe that we。should never give up.
one reason is that if we give up too easily,we will rarely act eve anything.it is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at something new,so we should not feel discouraged and should try again.besides,if we always give up when we fail,we will not be able to develop new skills and grow as people.another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes only if we make anew effort.if we do not try again,the lesson we have learned is wasted.finally,we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals,we develop confidence,and this confidence can help us succee din other areas of our lives.if we never challenge ourselves,we will begin to doubt our abilities.
in short,it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals.whether we succeed in the end or not,we will learn something,and what we learn will help us to become better,more confident people.furthermore,if we give up,we have non chance of attaining our goals,but if we keep trying,there is always achance that we will succeed one day.
The world no。1 salesman was asked to share his secret of success upon hisretirement。 2,500 salesmen came to listen to his speech。 He set a very big ironball and a big hammer on the stage。
世界第一名的推销员在他退休时理解邀请,分享他的成功秘诀。2500名业务员来听他的演讲。他在讲台上放置了一个很大很大的铁球和一把铁锤。
Then he asked, “Who can move this iron ball?” one person in the audiencesaid, “I want to try。” He went on the stage and knocked at the big iron ballonce。 It didn’t budge。 Then came more men。 The iron ball still didn’t move。
这时他开始发问:“谁能够把这个铁球移动?”台下有一个人说:“我来试一下”那个人上台用大铁锤朝这打铁球猛敲一下,打铁球纹丝不动,然后陆续上来几个人,铁球仍然没有动。
At this time the speaker said, “Now I teach you the secret。” He then pokedthe iron ball every 5 seconds by his pinkie no matter how the audience reacted。The iron ball began to move a little after 40miutes。 But the iron ball swungfiercely after 50 minutes。
这时,世界第一名的推销员说“此刻就让我来告诉你们秘密在哪,之后他就拿他的小指头对这这个铁球戳了一下,每过5秒又对着铁球戳一下,不管台下反应如何,40分钟后,铁球稍微移动了一点点,50分钟后铁球就开始剧烈晃动。
He then asked, “Who can stop the iron ball on the stage?” the people downthe stage all said it couldn’t be done。 The world no。1 salesman said, “This ismy secret of success。 I visit customers everyday until they give in。 you seethey just can’t block me when I succeed。”
他之后问:“谁能够上台来把这个铁球停住?”台下的人说这根本办不到。世界第一名的推销员说:“这就是我成功的秘诀。我每次都拜访顾客,直到他们屈服并理解。你看此刻当我成功时,连挡都挡不住。”
I recently started a new job, in a small office, where four of us share that fridge is a Brita water filter of my coworkerscomplained the water tasted "dirty" went on for a few days, and she wasstunned I could drink the water without any trouble.I started to doubt my tastebuds, but the water really tasted fine.
最近我找了份新工作,是在一间小办公室里,我们四个人共用一个冰箱。冰箱里有一个Brita牌滤水壶,有一个同事抱怨说水喝起来感觉很“脏”,她连续抱怨了几天,还很震惊我喝这样的水竟然没事。我开始怀疑自己的味蕾出问题了,但我真觉着水喝着还不错。
Finally, she figured out the problem was actually her simplyforgot to clean it, and after awhile started to affect the water inside leaned her cup, and drank the water with no problem.
最后,她发现问题出在了她的杯子上,她只是忘了刷杯子,过一段时间就影响里面水的味道了。她把杯子洗干净了,水就没有异味了。
I can't help but think about the world we live often we quicklyblame other people, other things, anything else but ourselves."You're racist"."You're intolerant"."You're the problem" world isn't perfect, I know, butI think we should take a step back sometimes and ask ourselves some toughquestions.
我禁不住思考了我们生活的世界,我们总是急于责备其他人、其他事、除了自己之外的一切东西。“你有种族歧视”、“你太狭隘”、“是你的问题”,我知道世界并不完美,但我认为有时我们应该退一步,问自己几个很难回答的问题。
Can I be better? Is my heart really pure? Can I help this situation withkindness?
我能变得更好吗?我的心真的纯洁吗?我能带着善意解决问题吗?
I want to tell you this; please clean your use when you do, thewater will taste much better.I promise you this.
我想告诉你这个道理:请洗干净自己的杯子。因为只有你把杯子洗干净了,里面的水味道才会好,我保证。
The sun has begun to set and I hang up the smile I’ve worn all day, thoughI will make sure it is the first thing I put back on in the morning just in caseit is “that day。” I want her to see me at my very best。
太阳将要下山,我收起挂了一天的微笑,但是我会确保明天早上第一件事就是将它又挂回去,以防这天就是“那一天”。我期望她看到我的最佳状态。
I do the normal routine, eat dinner, clean the house, write—the usualstuff。 And then I lay down hoping to fall asleep quickly so my new day willhurry up and arrive。 A new day with a brand new sun。 But as I lay there and waitfor the world to turn half way around, I think about her。 And sometimes I smile,and sometimes that smile will turn into asnicker, and then often that snickerwill turn into a burst of laughter。
我按平时的规律吃晚餐、打扫屋子、写作——做着日常事务。然后我躺下,期望能快点入睡,新的一天就能快点到来——拥有新生太阳的崭新的一天。可当我躺在那儿,等待着世界的日夜回转时,我想到了她。有时我会笑起来,有时那微笑变成了窃笑,然后窃笑又常常变成爆笑。
And then there are times I get that lump in my throat and that tightfeeling in my chest, and sometimes that feeling overwhelms me and begins to turninto a tear, and often that tear multiplies itself and I can no longer fight thefeeling and I lose the battle。 Then somehow through either the joy or thesadness I drift and find myself asleep。 Then the dreams begin and keep me panyuntil my new day arrives。
也有些时候,我的喉咙像是被一块东西哽住了,胸口发闷;有时那种伤感席卷而来,我开始流泪,眼泪常常越流越多,我再也无力抵抗悲伤,败下阵来。然后不知怎的,我在或喜悦或悲伤中飘荡,逐渐入眠。然后梦境开始伴我左右,直至新的一天到来。
When I awake it’s with such excitement because I tell myself this could bethe day that every other day has led up to and the first day of the rest of mylife。 I quickly don my smile because I do so want her to see me at my very best。Then I look out the window because, even though I know it’s dawn, I still haveto confirm I’ve been given another chance to find her。
醒来时,我兴奋不已,因为我告诉自我这天也许就是之前其他日子为之打下基础的“那一天”,是我余生的第一天。我迅速挂上微笑,因为我真的很想让她看到我的最佳状态。然后我朝窗外看去,因为即使我明白此刻才刚刚破晓,我仍得确定自我能够与她再次邂逅。
And there it is…the sun, even when it’s cloudy; somehow I still see it。 Andit smiles at me and I say, “Thank you,” and I smile back。
它在那里……太阳,虽然还是云雾重重,但我还是看到它了。它朝我微笑,我道了声“多谢”,回以一笑。
Then I ask myself, “Is this the day?” And the excitement rushes over meagain。 And then I ask myself, “Where’s it going to be?”
然后我问自我:“这天就是那一天吗?”兴奋之情再次充溢全身。然后我问自我:“它会在哪里呢?”
Maybe it’ll be at the water fountain, and, unexpectedly, there I’ll findher, and much more than my thirst will be quenched。 Maybe it’ll be at thegrocery store and there she’ll appear as I’m picking out fruit, and she’ll showme the difference between fresh and spoiled。 Then, from that moment, nothingthat I eat will ever taste the same because she’ll bring out the simplestbeauties in everything I see, taste, smell, hear, or touch。
也许它会藏在饮水机里,没想到我真能在那里找到她,为我生津止渴,取之不尽。也许它会躲在杂货店里,我拿起水果的时候,她就出现了,她会给我展示新鲜和变质的不一样。然后,从那一刻开始,我所尝到的一切味道不再一样,因为但凡我看到的、尝到的、闻到的、听到的或摸到的东西,她都带出了它们最简单的美丽。
Or maybe today will be the day when my angel brings an item up to the cashregister without its price tag。 And as I wait behind this angel with all thefrustrated people who are in such a hurry with their busy lives, I will findmyself with such blessed extra time。 Just enough time to start a conversationwith this beautiful vision standing in front of me that I might not otherwisehave noticed, but, because of a “price check on register 5,” I was able to findher。
或许就在这天,我的天使把一件没有价格标签的商品拿到收银台。我在天使身后排队,看着身心疲惫的人们忙忙碌碌地过日子,庆幸自我得到了这样的额外时光,让我能够和面前的倩影闲聊一会儿,否则我也许会错过,但只因为一句“请到5号收银台付款”,我就能找到她。
Thank you for the sun, which began my new day。 Thank you for granting methe faith when I arose this morning that I would find her in this new day。 Butmost of all, thank you for me not having to ever wait on another sunrise becausewhenever I want to see it, I will look at her and there it shall always be, inher eyes; she will forever hold it for me。
感谢太阳,它是新一天的开始。感谢你让我今早一齐床就满怀信心,明白自我能在这新的一天找到她。但最要感谢的是我不必再等下一个日出,因为无论我想何时看到它,我都能够看向她,它总会出此刻她的双眸里;她永远为我留着。
She is my sunrise, my dawn, my new day。
她是我的日出,我的黎明,我崭新的一天。
