We’ve all met with something that slows us down, for example, the bumps(颠簸) in the road, the tbacks. You just have to keep in mind that a tback is only temporary and greater things lie ahead菠萝蜜种子. Therefore, keep moving forward, developing what you have, since you’ve already built a solid foundation on which you can rely.
It is easy just to quit, give up and ignore the hard work you have put into something. But we believe in the “two steps forward, one step back” philosophy. So how can you react when something doesn’t turn out as you’ve expected it to be?
First, be objective. Step back and look at the situation. Is your tback really that significant, or will it just require a little extra effort? Then, plan your next move. You can ask for help. Don’t be afraid or ashamed to do this. Frequently, people are more than willing to g
ive you support and advice. You don’t have to be perfect; after all, nobody el is. Next, bounce back. Reevaluate the goals you should have t for yourlf at the beginning and retool(改组) them when necessary. Goals should be realistic and specific, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be flexible. Instead of looking at your project as a disaster or failure, view it with success. Concentrate on how great it will feel after it is finally done, after you have put your all into it. Instead of focusing on a possible unsatisfactory performance one single time, take a moment to sit back and reward yourlf for all that you have accomplished.

Above all, don’t live with regrets. Success is never easy. It remains up to you whether you will give up, or fight through the tough battles to earn whatever you want. Keep reaching for your goals and you will achieve them. One small tback is nothing if you really want something and are willing to work for it.

Inventor, physicist, surveyor, astronomer, biologist, artist… Robert Hooke was all the and more. Some say he was the greatest experimental scientist of the venteenth century. Once he worked with renowned men of science like Christian Huygens, Antony van Leeuwenhoek, Robert Boyle, Isaac Newton and the great architect, Christopher Wren.
Hooke’s early education began at home, under the guidance of his father. He entered Westminster School at the age of thirteen, and form there he went to Oxford, where he ca
me in contact with some of the best scientists in England. Hooke impresd them with his skill at designing experiments and devising instruments. In 1662, at the age of twenty—eight, he was named Curator of Experiments of the newly formed Royal Society of London. Hooke accepted the job, even though he knew that it had no money to pay him!
Watching living things through the microscope was one his favorite occupations. He devid a compound microscope for this purpo. One day while obrving a cork(软木) under a microscope, he saw honeycomb—like structures. They were cells—the smallest units of life. In fact, it was Hooke who coined the term “cell”鲁迅诗集 as the boxlike cells of the cork reminded him of the cells of a monastery(修道院).
Perhaps becau of his varied interests, Hooke often left experiments unfinished. Others took up where he left off and then claimed sole(独占的)credit. This sometimes led to quarrels with colleagues. One work that he finished was his book MICROGRAPHIA, a volume that reveals the immen potential of the microscope. The book also includes, among other things, ideas on gravity and light which may have helped scientists like Newton while they were developing their own theories on the phenomena.
