Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own ed, its own lesson on how to improve my performance next time.
每一次失败，每一次打击，每一次损失，都蕴育着成功的萌芽，都教会我在下一次有更出色的表现。
Never again will I contribute to my downfall by refusing to face the truth and learn from my past mistakes. 我再也不会逃避现实，也不会拒绝从以往的错误中获取经验，我不再因此而促成自己的失败。
Becau I know: gems cannot shine without polish, and I cannot perfect mylf without hardship.
因为我知道，宝玉不经磨砺就不能发光，没有，我也不能完善自我。
Now I know that there are no times in life when opportunity, the chance to be and do gathers so richly about my soul when it has to suffer cruel adversity.
现在我知道，灵魂倍受煎熬的时刻，也正是生命中最多选择与机会的时刻。
Then everything depends on whether I rai my head or lower it in eking help. 任何事情的成败取决于我在寻求帮助时是抬起头还是低下头。
Whenever I am struck down, in the future, by any terrible defeat, I will inquire of mylf, after the first pain has pasd, how I can turn that adversity into good. 无论何时，当我被可怕的失败击倒，在最初的阵痛过去之后，我都要想方设法将苦难变成好事。

If people give me negative feedback or criticize something I do, I don’t interpret what they are saying as meaning that I am a “bad” person.
如果人们给我负面的回应或是批评我做的事情，我不会认为他们所说的就表明我是一个“差劲的”人。
The belief that I control my own lf-esteem permits me to listen to and hear their feedback in a non-defensive way – looking to e if there is something I can learn. 我坚信自尊由我掌控，这让我毫无戒心地去听取别人的反馈，想看看是否有我可以学习的东西。
We have two choices every day. We can feel good about ourlves, or we can feel lousy about ourlves. Why would anyone choo the latter?
我们每天都有两种选择。我们可以感到自己很棒，也可以感到自己很差劲。难道有人会选择后者吗？
人生成功第5课：Hold fast to dreams紧紧抓住梦想
We all have dreams. We all want to believe deep down in our souls that we have a special gift, that we can make a difference, that we can touch others in a special way, and that we can make the world a better place. 我们每个人都有梦想。我们每个人都希望能发自内心地相信自已有一种特殊的天赋，相信自己能发挥重要的作用，相信自己能以一种特殊的方式感动他人，相信自己能够把世界变得更加美好。
At one time in our lives, we all had a vision for the quality of life that we desire and derve.
在一生中，我们都曾经对自己渴望并追求的生活品质抱有憧憬。
Yet, for many of us, tho dreams have become so shrouded in the frustrations and routines of daily life that we no longer even make an effort to accomplish them. 然而，对我们大多数人来说，这些憧憬在日常生活的成规和挫败中已经变得如此渺茫，以到于我们甚至不再努力去实现它们。
For far too many, the dream has dissipated – and with it, so has the will to shape our destinies.
