What to do once you achieve your goal?
Here are some basic lessons that can help you once you reach your goal, These are principles that millionaire Paul Scolardi has put into practice to good effect.
Stay modest. You can celebrate your achievements. But don' t act arrogantly (傲慢低)While you've made great progress, it's important that you shouldn't look down on those who are in the same situations as you.
The idea is that once you achieve a goal, you want to continue by setting a larger goal than that. For example, if you've gained a high position at your job. an even bigger goal would be to build you own business in that particular industry.
Work harder and more wisely. Naturally, if you're working towards a larger goal. you'll need to have more motivation and more confidence, and work even harder. But hard work isn't all that's needed. What helped you achieve this goal in the first place? What approach did you take to make all of this happen to you? So, make sure you look back and see what helped you get there.
Ignore critics. Whenever you achieve something, there will always be people who will try to drag you down. You're going to get haters or people who don't believe you. Take Scolardi for example. Unless he shares his particular story of how he became a millionaire, we don't really know what he went through to get there.
A. Set bigger goals.
B. You can thus move forward in life.
C. Positive thinking is all needed for achievement.
D. All we know is that he wasn't a millionaire and now he is.
E. It also pays to work more wisely and reflect on your achievements.
F. It can push people away, whether they're friends, family, or colleagues.
G. Leave them alone as your success has nothing to do with how they are feeling.
You walk into the classroom, look at that white piece of paper in front of you and are told you've got an hour and a half to do it. That can make anyone nervous, but here is the guide to stay calm.
Get a good night's sleep the night before the test, and eat a healthy breakfast next day. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} If you're too tired, you won't remember what you learnt the night before.
Get to class a little earlier. If you get there early, you'll make sure to get your favorite seat. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}
Breathe. Before the test, breathe in through your nose deeply and slowly. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Repeat this several times. If you experience a sudden panic during the test, perform the exercise again.
Skip questions if necessary. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} If you come across a difficult question, skip the question and move on. You can come back to it at the end of the test if you have time, and later questions may help you get the answer(s) to the one(s) you skipped.
{#blank#}5{#/blank#} Don't panic if you notice other students writing very quickly or handing in their tests early. Tell yourself it's just a test. Really, it is. No matter what happens, everything will be OK.
A. Avoid staying up the night before the exam. B. Act like you are the only person in the room. C. Don't spend too much time on any one question. D. If you believe you can do it, you will find you can! E. A little exercise will help you remain calm during any stressful situation. F. Then, hold your breath for 3-4 seconds and blow out slowly through your mouth. G. You'll not also feel more relaxed if you don't get there in time or worse yet, late. |
If you'd love to be more eco-friendly but don't know where to begin, start with a few small changes. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}
Adjust your thermostat(恒温器)to save on heating and cooling costs. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}In summer, set your thermostat to 78 ℉when you're at home and raise the temperature when you're away. In winter, turn your thermostat to 68 ℉ and lower it by 5°-10° when you're sleeping or out of your house. To stay warm in winter, put on a sweater or another layer instead of turning up the thermostat.
Turn off lights and unplug power strips that you're not using. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}Some devices can still use energy even when they're turned off. So, turn off the power strips at night to completely cut off energy use. If you need to leave your computer or TV on, try setting it to sleep mode.
Make your taps and toilets low-flow. Cut back on water waste by installing flow restrictor(节流装置) inside your taps and installing a low-flow shower head in your bathroom. This can save 3 to 4 gallons of water for every minute. If you're replacing a toilet, look for a low-flow one to save thousands of gallons of water a year. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}
{#blank#}5{#/blank#} Adjust your washing machine to use cold water instead of warm. Since more energy is spent drying the clothes, skip the machine and hang your washed clothes on a clothesline. If you don't have space for a clothesline or can't hang clothes outside, set up a clothes drying rack that you can use inside. Try running your clothes through an extra spin cycle to remove even more water from the clothes. This will make them dry quicker.
A. Replace burned out light bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs. B. By doing some small things at home, you can easily reduce your carbon footprint. C. Remember to fix leaky taps or toilets as soon as you notice water dripping. D. Choose sustainable options when you purchase things that are normally packaged in plastic. E. This is an easy way to reduce energy use. F. Use less energy during summer months and winter by controlling your heating and cooling bills. G. Wash your clothes with cold water and line dry them. |
A. Let's go to the classroom. B. I hope you'll enjoy your holiday there. C. Where are you going now? D. Will it take your some time? E. I have to go now. F. Glad to see you here. G. How long are you staying there? |
