How to become successful? This is an important question most young people often think about. When I was young, I also thought about this question quite often

Firstly, I think the most important quality(品质 )that a successful person should develop is the ability to think independently. There are a lot of chances, but not many people can realize that there are chances for them to make good use of. So you should have the ability to think independently. You should be able to understand what you can do best. What is the most suitable job for you? When you choose your job, you need to keep this in mind. Maybe you are good at sales; maybe you are good at technology; maybe you are good at starting a new company; maybe you are good at working for a large company. You need to think deeply to find out what you are good at. I think that is the most important thing. Secondly, once you have figured out what you want to do and what you can do best, you should focus on it. Do not change your job every year. It is not a good thing to change your job very often. Do not change your focus, either. You should know that if you focus on something, you may be able to do it better than most other people.

I told her that was very impressive for ______ to pursue her passion to play the piano.

“I have been playing for 8 years now,” I said. “Could you play a song for me ______ you leave?” she asked.

I thought she was joking and I only smiled. By the end of buying, she ______ me of our musical “deal”. She then ______ me an old upright piano in the living room and asked me to play a song for her. I thought for a ______ and decided to play David Lanz's Return to the Heart.

I tried my best to play the song, with much emotions pouring into it as I ______. She loved it. As I was about to step out of the door, I heard a weak ______ calling out “Young man!”
