10.Only by overcoming fear of failure can we achieve success in life.Here are some tips on how to remove fear and focus on success:Understand that at times you make mistakes.(36)C Before any of us learned how to walk,we crawled (爬行).We got up,fell down and got up again.We continued the process until we could walk quite well.
(37)A Instead,view it as a stepping stone.Make certain that you learn from failure and then use what you have learned in future situations.Refuse to consider failure a character weakness.Doing so will only prevent you from achieving future success.
Remember that failure has produced many successes. (38)F Albert Einstein's teacher told him to quit school and said,"Einstein,you will never achieve anything!"Beethoven's music teacher said he was hopeless to become a composer (作曲家).Henry Ford's first two car companies failed.
Appreciate the benefits of failure.Ralph Waldo Emerson said,"All life is an experiment.The more experiments you try,the better you make."It's hardly possible for someone to achieve success for the first time he tries. (39)G
Believe in yourself.Rather than give up when things don't work out,take it as a chance to build perseverance (坚持不懈).Remind yourself how many failures became successful because they wouldn't give up. (40)D
A.Don't take failure personally.
B.Work hard and try to avoid (避免) failure.
C.Realize that you are human and humans make mistakes.
D.Believe that you've got what it takes to work through the difficult times.
E.Making the same mistake again can lead to the failure in your future work.
F.Consider how many people in history had failed before they became successful.
G.In other words,your chances of getting things right on the first try are little.

Everyone loves a good listener.But there are more reasons to develop the skill of listening than to win hearts or popularity contests.
Listening heals hurts and builds bridges.It gives us the ability to understand and empathize,to view the world from our own point.It can bring us wisdom over and above mere intelligence.But most importantly,it allows us to give the people around us the gifts they crave (渴望) most-a sense of worth.
As it turns out,there's more to good listening than just keeping quiet and allowing someone to speak.Effective listening is actually a combination of two key communication skills:listening and verifying (确认).
Even when we've managed to hear a person's entire message,we often interpret it wrong-according to our own understanding,experience,or prejudice.
As an effective listener,your goal is to hear and absorb what another has to say…in exactly the way they mean it to be understood.Only then can you respond properly.
This is much easier read than done,so here are a few helpful tips:
1.Give the speaker your full attention.
Stop talking and remove all distractions.Turn off the TV,your phone,or computer.Watch your body language.The way you look at the speaker,or the way you stand or sit,makes a huge difference.The right listening body language communicates that we are listening openly and attentively,and puts the other person at ease.
2.Be patient.
Not everyone is a gifted speaker.Some people take longer to find the right word to make a point.Others are too worried to get their message across properly.If necessary,ask the speaker to explain further.It will help him/her speak more exactly and it will help you hear and understand better.
3.Keep your emotions in check.
If what someone is saying creates an emotional response in you,make an extra effort to listen carefully.When we're angry,frightened or upset,we often miss key parts of what is being said.
4.Hold your fire.
Don't jump to conclusions immediately.A good listener doesn't react until comprehension is complete.If you respond in a way that makes the other person defensive,even if you"win"the argument,you may lose something far more valuable.
5.Even if you think you understand,verify.
Never assume you got the message right.Pause,think about what was said,and then ask"Is this what you meant?"or"Am I understanding this right?"
6.Empathize
Take a moment to stand in the other person's shoes,to look at the situation from his/her point of view…especially when you're being told something personal or painful,or something you strongly disagree with.The more shoes you are able to successfully stand in within your life time,the less puzzled you'll find your life and relationships to be.
