英语美文朗读 第550期 Its your lifeTake control

It's very simple. The attitude you have when facing struggles and obstacles is what determines whether you will be successful. If you're going to commit the next two three four years of your life to your education, then your attitude is everything. Being able to keep studying despite the adversity thrown at you. You fail an exam? Keep studying. You argue with your friends? Keep studying. You have money problems? Keep studying.

 

道理很简单。你在面对困难时的态度，决定了你是否能成功。如果你在接下来的几年内都要上学，那么你的态度决定了一切。就算遇到挫折，也要坚持学习。考试没通过？继续学习。和朋友吵架了？继续学习。经济上有困难？继续学习。

 

You keep on marching on through the struggle, the chaos, the frustration, the procrastination, the disappointment, the anger, the regret. When all that is there, but you keep studying through it all, you know you have the discipline to be a successful person.

你要保持前进，经历挣扎，混乱，挫折，拖延，失望，愤怒，悔恨。所有情绪都夹杂在一起，但是你仍能坚持学习，那么你就会明白，你有足够的自律，这将使你成功。

 

It's the ability to know that even though at the time you feel overwhelmed and overpowered, you know deep down that it too shall pass. You will find a way. You will keep studying to chase your goal, to make you proud, to make your family proud, through thick and thin.

这是一种能力，就算你感觉自己要垮掉了，它也能让你相信，一切终将过去，你会找到出路，你会保持学习，追求自己的目标，不论经历多少艰辛，也要让自己感到自豪，让家人感到骄傲。

 

You will continue studying. It is something that is ingrained into every successful person, the ability to push through difficult times, not because you were lucky with it, not because they inherited it, but because they developed it. They did it once. They did it again. They did it again. And each time after that gets easier and easier. The more you overcome your struggles today, the easier you'll overcome your struggles tomorrow. And once you build up that momentum of improving your productivity, it becomes a whole lot easier.

你会保持学习。这是一种成功人士都拥有的品质，一种度过难关的能力。这不是因为幸运，不是因为成功人士天生就有这种能力，而是因为他们在自己身上培养了这种能力。他们度过难关，一次，又一次。每一次，事情都变得越来越简单。今天你越努力克服困难，明天你就越容易克服困难。一旦你培养了提升自己的动力，一切都会变得更简单。

 

And it's funny how it works. The more you study, the more you understand the subjects and topics, and the more you prepare for your exams, the easier your exams will be, the easier university will be, the easier it will be to get a good internship, or graduate job after graduating. It's really very simple. the more you study, the easier your life will be. Keep studying. Do not ever give up. Respect the struggle of your journey, because it's the struggle that will build you to be stronger. But be persistent, keep working on.

这个道理还挺有趣的。你学习得越多，你对科目的了解就越多，你对考试的准备就越充分，考试对于你来说就越简单，上大学这件事就越来越轻松，得到好的实习和工作机会的可能性就更大。这个道理非常简单，你学得越多，你的人生就会越顺利。保持学习吧，永不言弃。重视你遇到的困难，因为它让你变得更强大。但是也要保持执着，保持努力。

 

It's going to be a struggle. It's going to be hard. But that is an incredible thing, because you are going to figure it out. You will pull through. You have enough time. you have enough resources. You have enough commitment. You will find a way to smash your exams. Believe in yourself. You will figure things out. When tomorrow comes, you might not know what steps to take, but believe in yourself. Steer your own ship. It's your life. Take control.

这个过程将会很痛苦，很困难，但是这将变成一个奇迹，因为你最终会处理好眼前的难题，渡过难关。你有足够的时间，足够的资源，足够的投入。你会找到办法，通过考试。相信自己，你会处理好一切。对于未来，也许你不知道要怎样走下去，但是你要相信自己，走好你自己的路。这是你的人生，你的人生你做主。
