Nothing Succeeds Without a Strong Will
Success depends on many factors, both physical and spiritual. In my opinion, mental factors like a strong will are far more decisive in enabling us to achieve success. For example, despite our repeated efforts to quit smoking, our lack of a strong will would still cause us to end up in failure.
In any of our undertakings, we should first set a goal. Some goals are highly challenging. Without a strong will, people would give up in the middle and they fail to achieve their goals. For those people who do succeed, they succeed simply because they have that mental stamina which enables them to challenge even the most insurmountable difficulties.
We often say that ‘Impossible is Nothing’. To make the impossible possible, we must exercise our perseverance and strong willpower. Or, as an English proverb goes, ‘If there is a will, there is a way.’ Our world is becoming increasingly competitive and only by making strong-willed efforts can we maximize our full potential and gain competitive edges, and prevail over all obstacles that lie in our way to success.

题目:
“若无坚强意志,则一事无成”
成功取决于诸多不同的因素,有些是物质上的,有些是精神上的。依我之见,诸如坚强的意志这类精神上的因素,在帮助我们取得成功的过程中,具有更为决定性的意义。例如,尽管我们一次又一次力图戒烟,但如果我们缺乏坚定的意志,仍然会导致我们全功尽弃,一事无成。
无论我们从事何项工作,我们首先必须设定某个目标。有些目标会具有高度的挑战性,如果没有坚定的意志,有些人会半途而废,从而绝无可能达致目标。对于那些确实取得了成功的人士来说,他们之所以成功,恰恰是由于他们拥有那种顽强的精神毅力,激励着他们去挑战哪怕是最无法逾越的艰难困苦。
我们常说:“一切皆有可能。为了将不可为之事变成可为之事,我们必须发挥我们锲而不舍的精神,以及顽强不屈的意志力。或者,正如一句英语谚语所云:“有志者,事竟成”。在我们所处的世界中,竞争正变得日趋激烈。我们唯有作出意志顽强的努力,才能最大程度地发挥我们的全部潜能,在竞争中占据优势,并战胜阻挡在我们通往成功道路上的所有障碍。 |
