Three simple keys to success
Being successful means different things to different people.My point is, the specifics involved in finding success can vary greatly, depending on your goal.
There are three basic components necessary for finding success, regardless of the specifics of your pursuit. And, since the desire for ownership is the driving force behind acquisition, I'll use the word OWN as my simple three-item method for success:
1 O-Opportunity: One of the most important components in finding success is being able to identify opportunity. It is to success what wind is to sailing. Identifying opportunity is the first step: awareness sets your sails for success while your motivation provides the wind.
2 W-Wisdom: By definition, wisdom is the accurate application of knowledge. It requires clear understanding, great insight (洞察力) and good judgment. Once opportunity is identified, you must use all your inner resources to seize it and make the most of it. Finding success when opportunity presents itself often means reaching out for help in areas where you have weakness or lack of knowledge.
3 N-Never give up: This might possibly be the most important for success. The key is to first break your goal down into workable parts so you don't feel pressured, and then to work each part at ease with both enthusiasm and purpose. Having this attitude keeps you moving in the face of trouble and becomes the driving force behind most success stories.
A. It takes a lot of time effort and determination to succeed.
B. Besides, wisdom means knowing your limitations.
C. But wisdom involves more than just knowing.
D. You simply can't have one without the other.
E. Being successful demands doing well.
F. The road to success is being largely determined by what result you want to achieve.
G. You'll finally succeed if you follow these steps.

A. How do they affect us? B. Emojis are real pictures. C. Why are emojis important? D. The invention of emojis changed that! E. This means that emojis have created a new brain pattern in us. F. The first emojis appeared on Japanese mobile phones in the 1990s. G. A written message is black and white, but an emoji adds emotions to our messages. |
When you write a message or an email, you might put a smiling face or other pictures at the end to make the message more fun. These pictures are emojis (表情符号). {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Later, they were used on Apple's iPhone and Android phones. Now they are everywhere!
Emoticon or emoji?
Before emojis, there were emoticons, which can be made from the signs you can find on your keyboard, for example: for a smiley. Emoji is a Japanese word which means photograph. e ("picture") + moji ("character"). {#blank#}2{#/blank#} There are all kinds of emojis, from faces and weather pictures to things in the kitchen and animals.
What are emojis for?
In English, we have a saying: A picture paints a thousand words. For many people, an emoji is like a punctuation mark, or smiling at someone across the room. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} It is like the tone (语气) of voice when we speak on the phone, or gestures used in conversation.
{#blank#}4{#/blank#}
When someone speaks and looks serious, we try to look serious, too, and when someone smiles, we smile as well. This is how we show empathy (共鸣) and make friends.
But when we are online, we can't see the person's face and there is no emotion. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Scientists in Australia have discovered that when we look at a smiley face online, the same parts of the brain start working as when we look at a real smiley face. Our mood changes, and we try to change our face to match the emoji.
