One midnight, a little girl woke up to pass water. She by herself got up and down her bed, walked to the bedroom door and opened it. She looked outside and walked back, for it was so dark in the hall that she feared.
Her mother said, “Don't be afraid, honey. Take courage!”
“What's courage?” she asked, running to her mother's bed.
“Courage is the brave breath,” her mother answered.
“Mum, do you have courage?”
“Certainly.”
The girl held out her little hands, saying, “Mum, blow some of your breath of courage to me.”
After her mother blew out two mouthfuls of breath into her little cold hands, the little girl clenched her fists(握拳) nervously, afraid that the “breath of courage” would run away. Then with her fists clenched, she walked out of the bedroom towards the bathroom with nothing to fear.
Her mother said to herself, “It will be nice if someone can blow some kind of ‘breath' to me. Then I can hold it in my hands too when I feel terrified or lost.”
In fact, mostly, what we are terrified of is nothing but the fear in our mind. Who we should defeat(战胜) is nobody but ourselves.
Cordia Harrington owns three McDonald's restaurants in Illinois. Being a single mom, she is very successful. Now let's talk about her story.
Why did you become a businesswoman? | I had good roots of love and encouragement. When I got crazy ideas, my dad would say, “You can do that!” Even when I was 11, I had a nursery school (托儿所) in my backyard, and charged (收费) 25 cents for three hours. At the end of the summer, I saved $60. Businessmen always believe there's a better way to do things. |
What is the most important thing to be successful? | Doing what you say and never giving up. |
When was your darkest moment? | I had the hardest time when I started the business. I must get up at 3:00 a.m., drive 78 miles, work eight hours, drive home, pick up the kids, put them to bed, and study. I was always tired, and sometimes I felt hopeless. And yet somehow I kept going. |
You don't give up easily, do you? | Instead of complaining when problems come up, I take the energy and put it toward getting to the next level. |
Do you bake (烘烤)? | I love to cook, but I'm not a very good baker! I take our frozen dough (面团) home and bake that. But if I had to do the cooking, my guests would be in trouble |
