Develop and Fulfill One’s Life

I ‵will|practise perseverance more often, and never give up a ‵thing|because it was hard or inconvenient. If we want light, we must conquer darkness. ‵Perseverance|can sometimes equal genius in its results. “There are only ‵two creatures,” says a proverb, “who can surmount the pyramids — ‵the eagle|and the snail.”

I ‵will|school myself into a habit of attention; I ‵will not let anything come between me|and the subject in hand. I ‵will remember|that a good skater| ‵never tries to skate|in two directions at once. The habit of attention becomes ‵part of our life, if we begin early enough. I often hear grown-up people say, “I ‵could not fix my attention|on the lecture or book, ‵although I wished to do so,” and the reason is, the habit was ‵not formed in youth.

I ‵will|pay more attention|to the cultivation of the memory. I ‵will strengthen|that faculty by ‵every possible means, and on ‵every possible occasion. It takes a little ‵hard work at first|to remember things accurately; but memory ‵soon helps itself, and gives very ‵little trouble. It ‵only needs early cultivation|to become a power.

I ‵will look on the cheerful side. Life is very ‵much like a mirror: if you smile upon it, it smiles back upon you; ‵but if you frown and look doubtful on it, you will get a ‵similar look in return.

Inner sunshine|warms not ‵only the heart of the owner, ‵but of all that come in contact with it. “Who shuts love out, in turn|shall be ‵shut from love.”

I ‵will|school myself to say|‵“No” more often. I might write pages|on the importance of learning very ‵early in life|to gain that point where a young boy can stand erect, and decline doing an ‵unworthy act|because it is unworthy.

I ‵will|demand of myself more courtesy|towards my companions and friends, and ‵indeed towards strangers as well. The smallest courtesies|along the rough roads of life|are like the ‵little birds|that sing to us all winter long, and make that season of ice and snow ‵more endurable.

Finally, instead of trying hard to be happy, as if|that were the ‵sole purpose of life, I will try still ‵harder|to make others happy.
发展、完善自我

我会更多地培养自己的毅力,决不因为事情艰难或麻烦而放弃不干。如果我们要光明,我们就得征服黑暗。在产生的结果方面,毅力往往可以与天才相媲美。有句谚语说:“能登上金字塔的生物只有两种——雄鹰与蜗牛。”

我会培养自己专心致志的习惯。一旦手头有事,决不让任何事物使我分心。我会牢记:一位优秀的溜冰手从不试图同时滑向两个不同的方向。如果及早培养成专心致志的习惯,它就会成为我们生命的一部分。我常常听到成年人说:“尽管我希望能集中注意力听演讲或读书,但往往做不到。”其原因就在于年轻时没有养成这种习惯。

我会更加注意培养自己的记忆力。我要采取一切可能的办法,在一切可能的场合,增强记忆力。要精确地记住一切事物,起初的确要作出一番小小的努力:但用不了多久,记忆力本身就会起作用,使记忆成为轻而易举的事。只需及早培养,记忆自会成为一种才能。

凡事我都会看光明的一面。生活就像一面镜子:你朝它微笑,它也会朝你微笑;但如果你朝它皱眉头,它也会朝你皱眉头;如果你用怀疑的目光看待它,它也会以同样怀疑的目光看待你。

内心的阳光不仅温暖了自己的心,同时也温暖了所有跟他接触的人的心。“谁将爱拒之门外,谁就会被爱拒之门外。”

我要养成经常说“不”的习惯。一个少年要能挺直腰杆,拒绝做不值得做的事——就因为它不值得做。我可以写上好几页,谈谈早期培养这一点的重要性。

我会要求自己对待同伴和朋友更有礼貌,而且对陌生人确实也该如此。在坎坷的人生道路上,最细小的礼貌犹如在漫长的冬季为我们歌唱的小鸟,使得冰天雪地的严冬变得更加可以忍受。

我不会竭力为自己谋幸福——似乎那是人生惟一的目标;与之相反,我会更加努力,让他人幸福。
