Good Things Are Possible

Guidance for Reciting

Life is fine and enjoyable,yet you must learn to enjoy your fine life.

Always believe that good things are possible,and remember that mistakes can be lessons that lead to discoveries. Take your fear and transform it into trust,learn to rise above anxiety and doubt. Turn your“worry hours”into“productive hours”. Take the energy that you have wasted and direct it toward every worthwhile effort that you can be involved in. You will see beautiful things happen when you allow yourself to experience the joys of life. You will find happiness when you adopt positive thinking into your daily routine and make it an important part of your world.

美好总会降临

诵读导言

人生是美好的,但要学会如何享用美好的生活。

请坚信,美好的降临并非不可能,失误也许是成功的前奏。将惶恐化作信任,学会超越担忧和疑虑。让“诚惶诚恐”的时光变得“富有成效”。不要挥霍浪费精力,将它投到有意义的事情中去。当你下意识品尝生命的欢愉时,美好的事物就会出现。当你积极地看待生活,并以此作为你的日常准则时,你就会找到快乐的真谛。

口语点津

当你看到“Good things are possible”的时候,你很可能会想起一句广告词:“Impossible is nothing”。是的,当你处于“worry hours”(worry在这里是名词作修饰语)的时候,要调整你的情绪和态度(adjust your mood and attitude),尽可能地将其转换为“worry-free hours”,要始终相信生活是美好的,相信大多数人是好的,相信困难和挫折都只是暂时的,你肯定会成功跨越过去。
