　　青春勵志英文文章 篇1

　　Today I shed my old skin which hath,too long,suffered the bruises of failure and the wounds of mediority.

　　Today I am born anew and my birthplace is a vineyard where there is fruit for all.

　　Today I will pluck grapes of wisdom from the tallest and fullest vines in the vineyard,for these were planted by the wisest of my profession who have come before me,generation upon generation.

　　Today I will savor the taste of grapes from these vines and verily I will swallow the seed of success buried in each and new life will sprout within me.

　　The career I have chosen is laden with opportunity yet it is fraught with heartbreak and despair and the bodies of those who have failed,were they piled one atop another,would cast a shadow down upon all the pyramids of the earth.

　　Yet I will not fail,as the others,for in my hands I now hold the charts which will guide through perilous waters to shores which only yesterday seemed but a dream.

　　Failure no longer will be my payment for struggle.Just as nature made no provision for my body to tolerate pain neither has it made any provision for my life to suffer failure.Failure,like pain,is alien to my life.In the past I accepted it as I accepted pain.Now I reject it and I am prepared for wisdom and principles which will guide me out of the shadows into the sunlight of wealth,position,and happiness far beyond my most extravagant dreams until even the golden apples in the Garden of Hesperides will seem no more than my just reward.

　　Time teaches all things to him who lives forever but I have not the luxury of eternity.Yet within my allotted time I must practice the art of patience for nature acts never in haste.To create the olive,king of all trees,a hundred years is required.An onion plant is old in nine weeks.I have lived as an onion plant.It has not pleased me.Now I wouldst become the greatest of olive trees and,in truth,the greatest of salesman.

　　And how will this be accomplished? For I have neither the knowledge nor the experience to achieve the greatness and already I have stumbled in ignorance and fallen into pools of self-pity.The answer is simple.I will commence my journey unencumbered with either the weight of unnecessary knowledge or the handicap of meaningless experience.Nature already has supplied me with knowledge and instinct far greater than any beast in the forest and the value of experience is overrated,usually by old men who nod wisely and speak stupidly.

　　In truth,experience teaches thoroughly yet her course of instruction devours men's years so the value of her lessons diminishes with the time necessary to acquire her special wisdom.The end finds it wasted on dead men.Furthermore,experience is comparable to fashion; an action that proved successful today will be unworkable and impractical tomorrow.

　　Only principles endure and these I now possess,for the laws that will lead me to greatness are contained in the words of these scrolls.What they will teach me is more to prevent failure than to gain success,for what is success other than a state of mind? Which two,among a thouand wise men,will define success in the same words; yet failure is always described but one way.Failure is man's inability to reach his goals in life,whatever they may be.

　　In truth,the only difference between those who have failed and those who have successed lies in the difference of their habits.Good habits are the key to all success.Bad habits are the unlocked door to failure.Thus,the first law I will obey,which precedeth all others is -I will form good habits and become their slave.

　　As a child I was slave to my impulses; now I am slave to my habits,as are all grown men.I have surrendered my free will to the years of accumulated habits and the past deeds of my life have already marked out a path which threatens to imprison my future.My actions are ruled by appetite,passion,prejudice,greed,love,fear,environment,habit,and the worst of these tyrants is habit.Therefore,if I must be a slave to habit let me be a slave to good habits.My bad habits must be destroyed and new furrows prepared for good seed.

　　I will form good habits and become their slave.

　　And how will I accomplish this difficult feat? Through these scrolls,it will be done,for each scroll contains a principle which will drive a bad habit from my life and replace it with one which will bring me closer to success.For it is another of nature's laws that only a habit can subdue another habit.So,in order for these written words to perform their chosen task,I must discipline myself with the first of my new habits which is as follows:

　　I will read each scroll for thirty days in this prescribed manner,before I proceed to the next scroll.

　　First,I will read the words in silence when I arise.Then,I will read the words in silence after I have partaken of my midday meal.Last,I will read the words again just before I retire at day's end,and most important,on this occasion I will read the words aloud.

　　On the next day I will repeat this procedure,and I will continue in like manner for thirty days.Then,I will turn to the next scroll and repeat this procedure for another thirty days.I will continue in this manner until I have lived with each scroll for thirty days and my reading has become habit.

　　And what will be accomplished with this habit? Herein lies the hidden secret of all man's accomplishments.As I repeat the words daily they will soon become a part of my active mind,but more important,they will also seep into my other mind,that mysterious source which never sleeps,which creates my dreams,and often makes me act in ways I do not comprehend.

　　As the words of these scrolls are consumed by my mysterious mind I will begin to awake,each morning,with a vitality I have never known before.My vigor will increase,my enthusiasm will rise,my desire to meet the world will overcome every fear I once knew at sunrise,and I will be happier than I ever believed it possible to be in this world of strife and sorrow.

　　Eventually I will find myself reacting to all situations which confront me as I was commanded in the scrolls to react,and soon these actions and reactions will become easy to perform,for any act with practice becomes easy.

　　Thus a new and good habit is born,for when an act becomes easy through constant repetiton it becomes a pleasure to perform and if it is a pleasure to perform it is man's nature to perform it often.When I perform it often it becomes a habit and I become its slave and since it is a good habit this is my will.

　　青春勵志英文文章 篇2

　　The 92-year-old,petite,well-poised and proud lady,who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock,with her hair fashionably coifed and makeup perfectly applied,even though she was legally blind,moved to a nursing home today.

　　Her husband of 70 years recently passed away,making the move necessary.

　　After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home,she smiled sweetly when told her room was ready.As she maneuvered her walker to elevator I provided a visual description of her tiny room.

　　"I love it,"she started with the enthusiasm of an eight-year-old having just been presented with a new puppy.

　　"Mrs.Jones,you haven't seen the room…just wait."

　　"That doesn't have anything to do with it,"she replied."Happiness is something you decide on ahead of time.Whether I like my room or not doesn't depend on how the furniture is arranged…it's how I arrange my mind.I already decided to love it,It's a decision I make every morning when I wake up.I have a choice;I can spend the day in bed recounting the difficulty I have with the parts of my body that no longer work or get out of bed be thankful for the ones that do.Each day is a gift,and as long as my eyes open I'll focus on the new day and all the happy memories I've stored away…just for this time in my life."

　　青春勵志英文文章 篇3

　　He lost his arms in an accident that claimed his father's life—who was the main source of support for the family.Since then,he has had to depend on the arms of his younger brother.For the sake of taking care of him,his younger brother became his shadow,never leaving him alone for years.Except for writing with his toes,he was completely unable to do anything in his life.

　　One late night,he suffered from diarrhea1 and had to wake up his younger brother.His younger brother accompanied him into the toilet and then went back the dorm to wait.But being so tired,his younger brother fell asleep,leaving him on the toilet for two hours till the teacher on duty discovered him.As the two brothers grew up together,they had their share of problems and they would often quarrel.Then one day,his younger brother wanted to live separate from him,living his own life,as many normal people do.So he was heart-broken and didn't know what to do.

　　A similar misfortune befell a girl,too.One night her mother,who suffered from chronic2 mental illness disappeared.So her father went out looking for her mother,leaving her alone at home.She tried to prepare meals for her parents,only to overturn the kerosene3 light on the stove,resulting in a fire which took her hands away.

　　Though her elder sister who was studying in another city,showed her willingness to take care of her,she was determined to be completely independent.At school,she always studied hard.Most of all she learned to be self-reliant.Once she wrote the following in her composition："I am lucky.Though I lost my arms,I still have legs；I am lucky.Though my wings are broken,my heart can still fly."

　　One day,the boy and the girl were both invited to appear on a television interview program.The boy told the TV host about his uncertain future at being left on his own,whereas the girl was full of enthusiasm for her life.They both were asked to write something on a piece of paper with their toes.The boy wrote：My younger brother's arms are my arms；while the girl wrote： Broken wings,flying heart.

　　They had both endured the same ordeal4,but their different attitudes determined the nature of their lives.It is true that life is unpredictable5.Disasters can strike at any time.How you handle misfortune when confronted with it,is the true test of your character.If you choose only to complain and escape from the ordeal,it will always follow you wherever you go.But if you decide to be strong,the hardship will turn out to be a fortune on which new hopes will arise.

　　青春勵志英文文章 篇4

　　I got an engagement ring for Christmas.My boyfriendand I had been dating for almost a year and both felt the time was right tojoin our lives together in holy matrimony.

　　The month of January was spent planning our perfectAlabama June wedding.My mother,two sisters and I went to Huntsville,theclosest town with a selection of bridal shops,to buy the gown that would playthe leading role on my special occasion.

　　We had a wonderful time just being together andsharing silly jokes,but the day soon turned serious by afternoon: still nosign of the dress of my dreams.Both sisters were ready to give up and tryanother day in another town,but I coerced them into one more boutique.

　　I had a good feeling as we entered the quaint littleshop filled with the scent of fresh flowers.The elderly clerk showed usseveral beautiful gowns in my size and price range,but none were right.As Iopened the door to leave,the desperate shop owner announced she had one moredress in the back that was expensive and not even my size,but perhaps I mightwant to look at it anyway.When she brought it out,I squealed in delight.

　　青春勵志英文文章 篇5

　　An elderly carpenter was ready to retire.He told his employer of his plans to leave the house building business and live a more leisurely life with his wife enjoying his extended family.He would miss the paycheck,but he needed to retire.They could get by.

　　The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor.The carpenter said yes,but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work.He resorted to shoddy workmanship and usedinferior materials.It was an unfortunate way to end his career.

　　When the carpenter finished his work and the builder came to inspect the house,the contractor handed the front-door key to the carpenter."This is your house," he said,"my gift to you."

　　What a shock! What a shame! If he had only known he was building his own house,he would have done it all so differently.Now he had to live in the home he had built none too well.

　　So it is with us.We build our lives in a distracted way,reacting rather than acting,willing to put up less than the best.At important points we do not give the job our best effort.Then with a shock we look at the situation we have created and find that we are now living in the house we have built.If we had realized,we would have done it differently.

　　Think of yourself as the carpenter.Think about your house.Each day you hammer a nail,place a board,or erect a wall.Build wisely.It is the only life you will ever build.Even if you live it for only one day more,that day deserves to be lived graciously and withdignity.The plaque on the wall says,"Life is a do-it-yourself project."

　　Who could say it more clearly? Your life today is the result of your attitudes and choices in the past.Your life tomorrow will be the result of your attitudes and the choices you make today.

　　青春勵志英文文章 篇6

　　In May 1857 a Commission to study the whole question of the army medical service began to sit.The price was high.Florence Nightingale was doing this grueling work because it was vital,not because she had chosen it.She had changed.Now she was more brilliant in argument than ever,more efficient,more knowledgeable,more persistent and penetrating in her reasoning,scrupulously just,mathematically accurate—but she was pushing herself to the very limits of her capacity at the expense of all joy.

　　That summer of 1857 was a nightmare for Florence—not only was she working day and night to instruct the politicians sitting on the Commission,she was writing her own confidential report about her experiences.All this while Parthe and Mama lay about on sofas,telling each other not to get exhausted arranging flowers.

　　It took Florence only six months to complete her own one-thousand-page Confidential Report,Notes on Matters Affecting the Health,Efficiency and Hospital Administration of the British Army.It was an incredibly clear,deeply-considered volume.Every single thing she had learned from t Crimea was there—every statement she made was backed by hard evidence.

　　Florence Nightingale was basically arguing for prevention rather than cure.It was a new idea then and many politicians and army medical men felt it was revolutionary and positively cranky.They grimly opposed Florence and her allies.

　　She was forced to prove that the soldiers were dying because of their basic living conditions.She had inspected dozens of hospitals and barracks and now exposed them as damp,filthy and unventilated,with dirty drains and unventilated,with dirty drains and infected water supplies.She showed that the soldiers' diet was poor.She collected statistics which proved that the death rate for young soldiers in peace time was double that of the normal population.

　　She showed that,though the army took only the fittest young men,every year 1,500 were killed by neglect,poor food and disease.She declared "Our soldiers enlist to death in the barracks",and this became the battle cry of her supporters.

　　The public,too,was on her side.The more the anti-reformers dragged their feet,the greater the reform pressure became.

　　Florence did not win an outright victory against her opponents,but many changes came through.Soon some barracks were rebuilt and within three years the death rate would halve.

　　The intense work on the Commission was now over,but Florence was to continue studying,planning and pressing for army medical reform for the next thirty years.

　　People now began to demand that she apply her knowledge to civilian hospitals,which she found to be "just as bad or worse" than military hospitals.In 1859 she published a book called Notes on Hospitals.It showed the world why people feared to be taken into hospitals and how matters could be remedied.

　　Florence set forth the then revolutionary theory that simply by improving the construction and physical maintenance,hospital deaths could be greatly reduced.More windows,better ventilation,improved drainage,less cramped conditions,and regular scrubbing of the floors,walls and bed frames were basic measures that every hospital could take.

　　Florence soon became an expert on the building of hospitals and all over the world hospitals were established according to her specifications.She wrote hundreds and hundreds of letters from her sofa in London inquiring about sinks and saucepans,locks and laundry rooms.No detail was too small for her considered attention.She worked out ideas for the most efficient way to distribute clean linen,the best method of keeping food hot,the correct number of inches between beds.She intended to change the administration of hospitals from top to toe.Lives depended upon detail.

　　Florence Nightingale succeeded.All over the world Nightingale-style hospitals would be built.And Florence would continue to advise on hospital plans for over forty years.Today's hospitals with their flowers and bright,clean and cheerful wards are a direct result of her work.

　　青春勵志英文文章 篇7

　　Wherever you are,and whoever you may be,there is one thing in which you and I are just alike at this monment,and in all the moments of our existence.We are not at rest,we are on a journey.Our life is a movement,a tendency,a steady,ceaseless progress towards an unseen goal.

　　We are gaining something,or losing something,or losing something,everyday.Even when our position and our character seem to remain precisely the same,they are changing.For the mereadvance of time is a change.It is not the same thing to have a bare field in January and in July.The season makes the difference.The limitations that are childlike in the child are childish in the man.

　　Everything that we do is a step in one direction or another.Even the failure to do something is in itself a deed.it sets us forward or backward.the action of the negative pole of a magnetic needle is just as real as the action of the positive pole.To decline is to accept--the other alternative.

　　Are you nearer to your port today than you were yesterday? yes,you must be a little nearer to some port or other for since your ship was first launched upon the sea of life,you have never been still for a single monment,the sea is too deep,you could not find an anchorage if you would,there can be no pause until you come into port.

　　青春勵志英文文章 篇8

　　Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air.You name them: Work,Family,Health,Friends,Spirit.And you're keeping all of these in the air.You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball.If you drop it,it will bounce back.But the other four balls — family,health,friends and spirit are made of glass.If you drop one of these,they will be irrevocably marked,nicked,damaged or even shattered.They will never be the same.You must understand that and strive for balance in your life.

　　How?

　　Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others.It is because we are different that each of us is special.Don't set your goals by what other people deem important.Only you know what is best for you.Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart.Cling to them as you would cling to your life,for without them,life is meaningless.

　　Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future.By living your life one day at a time,you live all the days of your life.Don't give up when you still have something to give.Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.

　　Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect.It is this fragile thread that binds us each together.Don't be afraid to encounter risks.It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find.The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been,but also where you are going.

　　青春勵志英文文章 篇9

　　The courage of life is often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of a final moment;but it is no less a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy.

　　A man does what he must-in spite of personal consequences,in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures-and that is the basis of all human morality.

　　To be courageous requires no exceptional qualifications,no magic formula,no special combination of time and place and circumstance.

　　It is an opportunity that sooner or later is presented to us all.

　　Politics merely furnishes one arena which imposes special tests of courage.

　　In whatever arena of life one may meet the challenge of courage.

　　Whatever may be the sacrifices he faces if he follows his conscience-the loss of his friends,his fortune,his contentment,even the esteem of his fellow men-each man must decide for himself the course he will follow.

　　The stories of past courage can define that ingredient-they can teach,they can offer hope,they can provide inspiration.

　　But they cannot supply courage itself.

　　For this each man must look into his own soul.

　　青春勵志英文文章 篇10

　　To a large degree,the measure of our peace of mind is determined by how much we are able to live in the present moment.Irrespective of what happened yesterday or last year,and what may or may not happen tomorrow,the present moment is where you are always.

　　Without question,many of us have mastered the neurotic art of spending much of our lives worrying about a variety of things —all at once.We allow past problems and future concerns to dominate our present moments,so much so that we end up anxious,frustrated,depressed,and hopeless.

　　On the flip side,we also postpone our gratification,our stated priorities,and our happiness,often convincing ourselves that ‘someday' will be better than today.Unfortunately,the same mental dynamics that tell us to look toward the future will only repeat themselves so that "someday " never actually arrives.

　　John Lennon once said,‘Life is what's happening while we're busy making other plans.'When we're busy making ‘other plans',our children are busy growing up,the people we love are moving away and dying,our bodies are getting out of shape,and our dreams are slipping away.In short,we miss out on life.

　　Many people live as if life were a dress rehearsal5 for some later date.It isn't.In fact,no one has a guarantee that he or she will be here tomorrow.Now is the only time we have,and the only time that we have any control over.When our attention is in the present moment,we push fear from our minds.Fear is the concern over events that might happen in the future－we won' t have enough money,our children will get into trouble,we will get old and die,whatever.

　　To combat fear,the best strategy is to learn to bring your attention back to the present.Mark Twain said,‘I have been through some terrible things in my life,some of which actually happened.I don't think I can say it any better.Practice keeping your attention on the here and now.Your efforts will pay great dividends.

　　青春勵志英文文章 篇11

　　Tucked away in our subconscious is an idyllic vision.We see ourselves on a long trip that spans the continent.We are traveling by train.Out the windows,we drink in the passing scene of cars on nearby highways,of children waving at a crossing,of cattle grazing on a distant hillside,of smoke pouring from a power plant,of row upon row of com and wheat,of flatlands and valleys,of mountains and rolling hillsides,of city skylines and village halls.

　　But uppermost in our minds is the final destination.On a certain day at a certain hour,we will pull into the station.Bands will be playing and flags waving.Once we get there,so many wonderful dreams will come true and the pieces of our lives will fit together like a completed jigsaw puzzle.How restlessly we pace the aisles,damning the minutes for loitering--waiting,waiting,waiting for the station.

　　When we reach the station,that will be it! we cry."When I'm 18." "When I buy a new 450SL Mercedes Benz!" "When I put the last kid through college." "When I have paid off the mortgage!" "When I get a promotion" "hen I reach the age of retirement,I shall live happily ever after! "

　　Sooner or later,we must realize there is no station,no one place to arrive at once and for all.The true joy of life is the trip.The station is only a dream.It constantly outdistances us.

　　Relish the moment is a good motto,especially when coupled with Psalm 118 :24:"This is the day which the Lord hath made:we will rejoice and be glad in it." It isn't the burdens of today that drive men mad.It is the regrets over yesterday and the fear of tomorrow.Regret and fear are twin thieves who rob us of today.

　　So stop pacing the aisles and counting the miles.In stead,climb more mountains,eat more ice cream,go barefoot more often,swim more rivers,watch more sunsets,laugh more,cry less.Life must be lived as we go along.The station will come soon enough.

　　青春勵志英文文章 篇12

　　There was a man who had four sons.He wanted his sons to learn not to judge things too quickly.So he sent them each on a quest,in turn,to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.The first son went in the winter,the second in the spring,the third in the summer,and the youngest son in the fall.

　　When they had all gone and come back,he called them together to describe what they had seen.The first son said that the tree was ugly,bent,and twisted.The second son said no-it was covered with green buds and full of promise.The third son disagreed.He said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful,and it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen.The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit,full of life and fulfillment.

　　The man then explained to his sons that they were all right,because they had each seen but one season in the tree's life.He told them that they cannot judge a tree,or a person,by only one season,and that the essence of who they are--and the pleasure,joy,and love that come from that life--can only be measured at the end,when all the seasons are up.

　　If you give up when it's winter,you will miss the promise of your spring,the beauty of your summer,fulfillment of your fall.Don't let the pain of one season destroy the joy of all the rest.Don't judge a life by one difficult season.
