Without action, even the most grand of dreams evaporate into the air when left unnurtured in the misty realms of the mind. Do you dare to be a dreamer? Prepare to go it alone. Dreamers build bridges between the known and the unknown. As you dance your dreams into reality, those who can39。1． Feed Your Mind 英語(yǔ)專業(yè)晨讀美文勵(lì)志篇：滋養(yǎng)你的思想 (英音 ) Since the prehistoric times, man has had an urge to satisfy his needs. Be it hunger, shelter or search for a mate, he has always manipulated the circumstances to the best of his advantages. Probably this might be the reason why we human are the most developed of all living species on the earth, and probably also in the universe. As we climbed the steps of evolution with giant leaps, we somehow left behind mon sense and logical thinking— we fot that we have stopped thinking ahead of times. If you are hungry, what do you do? Grab a piece of your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? Just like your stomach, even your mind is hungry. But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your dream lover, favorite star and many such absurd things. So it silently began to heed to your needs and never let itself grow. When mind looses its freedom to grow, creativity gets a full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think What happens next?, Why can39。t hear the music may think you a fool. Pay no heed to those who would kill your dreams。d bet on the white dog, and folks seeing the black dog win the week before would bet, but this time the white dog would win. Why? One week he39。t you? You could be waiting forever, you know. Time is an illusion. Circumstances are what you make them. Opportunity is a whisper that waits for your invitation, it doesn39。s not enough. Next and this the part too many people fet about—es the doing. All of the wanting in the world is not going to move you one inch closer to what you want: you have to do. You have to find a better job, change jobs, take risks, write software, try new things, stop doing old things, go to college, work, act, do. The doing is the absolutely indispensable connection between what you want and what you get. Finally, if you keep doing what needs to be done, if you keep adjusting what you do to move you closer to what you want, you get. Maybe not easily, maybe not as quickly as movies and television portray, but it will e. One final philosophical note about these six words: notice that I is three of them? Not what others want, not what others say you are supposed or should do. What39。t really want. This is actually what most of us do, because we don39。t try new things because of their fear of failure. Failing is not something to be afraid of. It is often the losers who learn more about winning than the winners. Our mistakes always give us opportunities to learn and grow. 2. Education is what remains after one has fotten what one has learned in school. 30 years from now, you won39。 but when you are on stage with the whole world watching, you must bee a unique, individual force that learnt different values from different people. 5. The value of a man should be seen in what he gives and not in what he is able to receive. Try not to bee a man of success, but rather try to bee a man of value. If you think of all the top people in the world, they would have added something of value to the world. You must give in order to take. When your purpose is contributing or adding value to the world, you will be elevated to a higher level of living. 6. There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle。m a good guy. I have good intentions. I want the best for everyone。s our ego39。s still our individual responsibility. Despite not being the kings of the world, the changes we make as individuals can and will impact the rest of the world if executed with great precision and passion. Where We Make the Most Impact I am convinced that we can create the most change in the world by concentrating our resources where we can have the most potential impact. This focus, unlike spreading our resources thin, allows us to have a more direct impact on individuals. The part of the world in which we make the most impact, whether we like it or not, is within our families and small circles of friends. We may be successful in converting our family into believers, and they may even turn out to be our biggest group of supporters, or not. The point, however, does not lie in the way they treat us, but rather it39。ll soon find out that human beings do not operate on such a paradigm. Whether blood related or not, people tend to gravitate to others, and eventually form a family unit. It39。 without a word of objection, he would carry in wood for the stove. One day when I suggested that he might start on homework before dinner, John—a veteran procrastinator—said, “You39。s clothes for the real person within them. But there is something to be said for wearing a standard of excellence for the world to see, for practising standards of excellence in thought, speech, and behaviour, and for matching what is on the inside to what is on the outside. Sometimes, watching John leave for school, I39。m not sure why I started climbing. I walked through the door of the local climbing gym one day on a whim. It was an alien world: strong beautiful men and women, towering walls under sodium vapor lights, white dust filling the air. Light instead of dark. Up instead of down. It was in every way the opposite of what was inside me. The second time I climbed, I got to a move where I was sure I would fall. I was 25 feet up on a rope, but I didn39。m less focused
