第83期:英語美文-邁向成功的第一步
今天我們分享的是英語美文——邁向成功的第一步。
Think back to a time in your life when you felt inspired and excited to make a significant change. Did you go for it or did your inner obstacles get in the way?
Your thoughts and beliefs are the foundation on which you build your success. You can't build a solid house on a foundation of clay and debris, and the same truth holds for your success.
If your thoughts and beliefs are shaky, these internal obstacles will hold you back unless you eliminate them.
Learning to handle obstacles is the best way to stand your ground and succeed. While evasion only undermines your self-esteem.
Nature presents you with these challenges in order to learn to weather the storm and grow stronger.
To succeed in overcoming obstacles, you need to have the guts not to quit, but to see things through, to have the strong faith to believe more in yourself than in the obstacles and to have the willingness to do what it takes to turn the obstacles around.
This means, you need to stand up to your obstacles and believe you can overcome them. When you attack your obstacles and do something about them, you will find that they are not as threatening as they appeared to be at first.
Decide that you will not give up and if something has to give, it will have to be the obstacles and not you.
Standing up to your obstacles imparts you with a sense of accomplishment and reinforces the sense of your inner power. By developing a habit of facing resistance, you instill into your psyche a strong message of endurance and success. This strengthens the faith and the belief in yourself, which helps remind you of the responsibility to yourself.
Sometimes you may have to resort to some other measures to overcome obstacles. If you can't get through the problem, try going around it, and if you can't go around it, try getting under it, and if you can't get under it, try going over it, and if you can't go over it, just pe straight into it.
In your path to a successful life, you are the only real obstacle.
回顧一下，在你生命中的某個時刻，你突然靈光一閃，并沖動地想作出一個重大改變。你會努力去爭取實現(xiàn)，還是會被內(nèi)心的障礙阻止了腳步呢？
你的思想和信仰是你成功的基礎(chǔ)。在泥土和殘骸的地基上，你無法建造一棟結(jié)實的房子，成功也存在著同樣的道理。
如果你的思想和信仰搖搖欲墜，如果你不清除內(nèi)心的障礙，它們就會阻礙你的前進。
學(xué)會清理障礙是立足于大地并獲得成功的最好辦法，而逃避只會有損你的自尊。
大自然將這些挑戰(zhàn)呈現(xiàn)在你面前，是為了讓你學(xué)會經(jīng)受風(fēng)雨的磨煉，更茁壯地成長。
要成功清除障礙，你需要有堅決不放棄的勇氣，看清事物的本質(zhì)，對自己擁有堅定的信念，勝過于對那些障礙，還要有清除障礙所必需的主動。
這意味著你必須勇敢地抵抗自身的障礙，要相信自己一定能征服。當(dāng)你向這些障礙發(fā)起攻擊，并有所行動時，就會發(fā)現(xiàn)它們并不像起初看上去的那樣可怕。
下定決心，永不放棄。如果一定要有一方讓步的話，那一定是障礙，而不是你。
與你的障礙對抗，你將獲得一種成就感，它會使你內(nèi)心的力量強大。培養(yǎng)一種直面反抗的好習(xí)慣，你就可以慢慢地給心靈灌輸一種忍耐和成功的強大信念。這會使你對自身的信仰和信心有所增加，從而對提醒你對自己負責(zé)很有幫助。
要清除障礙，有時你還要采取其他的辦法。如果你不能攻克障礙，就試著繞過去；如果無法繞過去，那就控制它；如果控制不了，那就越過去；如果無法越過，那就徑直沖過去。
在通向成功人生的道路上，你是唯一真正的障礙
