    I was the typical“ I can't” child-whatever my mother told or asked me to do was immediately followed by my cry,“I can't.”As a result,very few tasks or goals that I set out to achieve were ever completed.

    One evening,my mother called me into the family room.“I want you to read this article,”Mother began.“It's about Marlo Thomas.She tells how a simple poem that she was forced to learn by her father changed her life • She went from saying 'I can't' to 'I can' •According to this article,she was able to reorganize her life and her career by learning the principles(原则)in the poem.”

    I took the small magazine from Mother and looked down at the pages.There was Marlo-my idol.Beside her photo was the poem my mother had spoken of,a simple poem entitled,“I Can”.

    “I want you to memorize that poem,”Mother said firmly.“Mama,”I belly-acheD. “I can't learn that poem.It's too long.”

“It's not too tong and you can learn it.1 want you to know it perfectly by this time tomorrow,”said my mother.Unwillingly,I went back to my bedroom with the magazine.With a heavy heart,Ithrew myself into the bed and began my task.

    “Can't is a word that is the enemy to ambition,”I began.I repeated the line.I repeated it again and again.“An enemy ambush to shatter your will…”I continued the process until I proudly recited the poem the following evening.It has now become my principle.Marlo 1 homas did not know me,but her story forever changed my life.

    Saying “I can”helped me to get through the worst moments of my life: Saying “I can” encouraged me to complete things I would have otherwise seen as out of my reach.A simple poem learned at seven is a poem that will support me to seventy-seven,maybe even longer.

    Three travelers, Allan, Carl and Paul were sitting on the chairs in a train station. They were waiting for a train that was very late.

    To kill time, they began talking to each other.

    At first, they talked about the weather and their work. Then Paul said, "Tell me-what would you most like to do if your doctor tells you that you have only three months to live?"

    The other two men thought about this for a while, then Carl spoke.

    "Well," he said, "if I have only three months to live, I'll take all my money out of the bank and go to foreign countries for holidays with my best friend, Erik. I'd like to travel to the places in the world as many as possible. And I'll stay at the best hotels and then eat the best food. I think I'll have a wonderful time. "

    "That's very interesting." Paul said.

    With these words, he turned to the other man, saying, "And what about you?"

    "I'll tell you a secret," Allan said. "I always want to be a racing driver. So if I have only three months to live, the first thing I'd like to do is to sell my house. With the money I'll buy the fastest car in the world. Perhaps I can enter all the big motor races."

    Then he laughed, "I might even end up world champion (冠军). "

    "Now it's your turn," Allan went on, "If your doctor tell you the bad news, what would you most like to do?"

    "Oh," said Paul with a smile. "__________________________"

    "Haha! Why didn't we think of that?" The three of them laughed together.
