第43章 通往成功的第一步 (15)

字體:16+-

If we view our lives as a juggling act or a sort of sporting contest, we learn to go along with the limitations and obstacles that are dealt us. We then find ways to make it through the event in good shape and with energy. Different talents and strengths will be called upon to get through the obstacles. Our faith, humor, and hope may be tested, but they are what keeps us going as we try to overcome the various obstacles.

Discrimination and prejudice are challenges. We force ourselves to work twice as hard as others; however, the rewards from our work are ours to enjoy. The important thing is to be working at something we find meaningful and worthwhile.

To succeed, you must accept challenges. There will always be barriers, cultural differences, and lack of understanding around us, but it is beneficial for us to stay together, be sensitive to each other needs, and to help each other. Maintaining cultural diversity and integrity is possible as a healthy community builds on teamwork, praise, pride and enthusiasm. Once, we are dedicated to improve critical skills such as knowledge sharing, collaboration, flexibility and risk taking, we will improve our future.

Together, we can make our world a better place in which to live by changing the way we and the rest of the population view it—positively. Let's make this challenge a reality.

麵對生活中的尷尬和艱辛,我們應該輕易悲痛嗎?或者,我們是否應該直麵阻礙,接受它的挑戰呢?選擇不同的立場,可能使自己成為被壓抑的犧牲品。不論發生什麽事,我們都可以把它當成生活中某種不祥的征兆。很多時候,我們需要確定自己作出的選擇,是受智慧的指引還是恐懼的驅使。

如果把生活比喻成雜耍,或是一種體育競賽,我們就會認同那些設置的限製和阻礙,然後尋找方法,集中精力去跨越。我們需要不同的才能和力量以清除障礙;我們的信念、幽默和希望都可能受到考驗,但它們在我們全力克服各種困難的過程中,促進了我們的成長。
