Success is so much more than just money or fame. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} If you want to have a successful life, if you want to create a life that makes you feel passionate to be alive, here are the three things you need to focus on.

    Believe In Yourself

    If you don't believe in yourself, how do you expect other people to?

    If you don't believe that you can have the life you desire, if you don't believe that you can achieve all that you are setting out to achieve, it is going to be very difficult to create a successful life.{#blank#}2{#/blank#} It also helps you to take a leap of faith when it comes to going after what it is that you truly desire.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    If your intention is simply rooted in money and fame, chances are you are never going to truly feel successful. The feeling of success that is given through money and fame is only temporary and is not enough to sustain a long-term feeling of fulfillment and happiness.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#} When your intention is to serve your purpose, make a change in the world and express your gifts and talents, you will feel true success and satisfaction no matter what the outcome.

    Realize You Are Already Successful

    Success is all around you and flows through you and the more you can welcome that into your life, the more you will start to feel it.

    Being grateful for the tiniest successes in life will also help you to create more and more success.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} The truth is that you are already successful and once you realize this, there is no stopping what you can do.

A. Know Your Intention.

C. When you believe in yourself, it fuels your creativity, your ambitions and your motivation to do things.

D. Success is the result of preparation, hard work and learning from failure.

E. For a truly successful life, your intention has to be rooted in your purpose, in your passions and in what feels good to you.

F. This is a powerful mindset shift and one that will help you to align (使结盟）with your ambitions and dreams.

G. Success is about being able to live a happy and fulfilling life that allows you to be true to who you really are.

    There is no way to make somebody stop smoking,and just like with users of any drug,it is very unlikely a person will stop unless he or she wants to.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    Step One: Make Observations

    Smoking use can affect memory and make it difficult for people to do well at work or school.Other bad effects that you may notice include:{#blank#}2{#/blank#}Is she getting sick more often than she used to?

    Write down your concerns using “I” statements,such as “I feel sad that when you smoke you give up your artwork.”{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Step Two: Approach the Person

    Bring up your concerns to your friend at a relaxing time.Express your concerns using the statements you wrote down.Tell him you will be there to support him if and when she decides to give up smoking.He will likely give you one of three responses:

    He wants to quit.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    He wants to stop,but not yet.

    You must be willing to calmly accept any of these responses.If he says he does want to stop,go on with the next step.If not,they will have to be visited later when he is ready.

    Step Three: Prevent Him Giving Up Halfway

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}However,symptoms only appear after some time of quitting smoke.This causes some who are addicted to believe that they are not actually addicted and to start using again.

    If you are already making the time to exercise, it is good indeed! With such busy lives, it can be hard to try and find the time to work out. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Working out in the morning provides additional benefits beyond being physically fit.

    Your productivity is improved. Exercising makes you more awake and ready to handle whatever is ahead of you for the day. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    Your metabolism (新陈代谢) gets a head start. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}If you work out in the mornings, then you will be getting the calorie (卡路里) burning benefits for the whole day, not in your sleep.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Studies found that people who woke up early for exercise slept better than those who exercised in the evening. Exercise energizes you, so it is more difficult to relax and have a peaceful sleep when you are very excited.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#} If you work out bright and early in the morning, you will be more likely to stick to healthy food choices throughout the day. Who would want to ruin their good workout by eating junk food? You will want to continue to focus on positive choices.

Time is on your side

    How frequently do you say "I don't have time"? Quite often, I guess. Every time we say those words, they make us feel weak and out of control. You are in control of your hours and your life. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    I don't as easy as simply turning off the TV. But here are two steps that will help you take back control and get time on your side.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    Be honest: do you Spend an hour or two visiting Weixin and QQ every day? Are you spending time with people that you don't really like just to please them? Are there meetings you attend that you can politely refuse?

    It's time to get real about the hours that add up to a lot of dissatisfying nothing. Think how you can cancel daily activities that are not useful. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Change your language.

    Words matter. They have power. Saying "I don't have time" is an excuse for not wanting to do something. Here are some good, empowering alternatives (选择):

    "I choose not to start that project until next year."

    "{#blank#}4{#/blank#}"

    "I'd love to go out this weekend but have important work I need to do first."

    Get better at saying no. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}Use little pockets of time (friend running late, car stuck in traffic, meeting ending 10 minutes early) to do some productive thinking. All these things can add up over time more than you believe!

B. But you are likely wasting a lot of it!

    Why is setting goals important? {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Instead of just letting life happen to you, goals allow you to make your life happen.

    Successful people imagine how their life should be and set lots of goals. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} It's like having a map to show you where you want to go. Think of it this way. There are two drivers. One has a destination in mind which can be found on a map. She can drive straight there surely without any wasted time of wrong turns. The other driver has no goal, or destination or map. She starts off at the same time from the same place as the first driver, but she drives aimlessly around, never getting anywhere, just using up gas. Which driver do you want to be?

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} They decide what they want in life and then get there by making plans and setting goals. Unsuccessful people usually just let life happen by accident. Goals aren't difficult to set and they aren't difficult to reach. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} You are the one who must decide what to achieve and in what direction to aim your life.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}Written goals can be reviewed regularly, and have more power. Like a contract with yourself, they are harder to neglect or forget. Also when you write your goals in a particular way, you are able to make yourself continuously aware of situations that will bring you nearer to your goal.

A. Winners in life set goals and follow them through.  

B. Research tells us that when we write a goal down we are more likely to achieve it.

C. It's up to you to find out what your goals really are.

D. It's difficult for a driver to reach his destination without a map.

E. By setting goals you are taking control of your life.

F. Because goals can help you do, be, and experience everything you want in life.

G. Because everybody should have a goal in his mind.

    "Life is speeding up. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}." Picture this: You're rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings. Suddenly the computer blanks and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up to get it done. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. Due to these inventions, we are often left feeling stressed and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities often seem to be happier? Perhaps because they lead a simple life.

    One family in the UK went "back in time" to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today, The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons Benjamin, 10 and Thomas, 7, spent nine weeks in a house dating back to 1940. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}.

    The grandmother, Molly, said, "It was hard physically, but not mentally." She believed life was less materialistic. " {#blank#}5{#/blank#}." she said. The boys said they had less to fight over, their computer, for example. Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a trendy, beer —drinking granny to one who liked cooking things.
