(1)Our character, basically, is a mixture of our habits．“Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; ________ , reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny(命运), ” the maxim goes．
(2)Habits are powerful factors in our lives．Because they are often unconscious patterns, they constantly daily affect our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness．
(3)As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, “Habits are like a cable．We weave a rope of it everyday and soon it cannot be broken．” I personally do not agree with the last part of his expression．I know habits can be learned and unlearned．But we also know it isn't a quick fix．It involves a process and a tremendous effort．
(4)Those of us who watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11 were shocked as we saw the first men walk on the moon and return to earth．But to get there, those astronauts had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth．More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, in the first few miles of travel, than was used over the next several days to travel half million miles．
(5)Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull-more than most people realize or would admit．Breaking deeply developed habitual tendencies such as procrastination(拖延), impatience, criticalness, or selfishness that go against basic principles of human effectiveness involves more than a little willpower and a few minor changes in our lives．“Lift off” takes a tremendous effort, but once we break out of the gravity pull, our freedom takes on a whole new situation．
(6)Like any natural force, gravity pull can work with us or against us．The gravity pull of some of our habits may currently be keeping us from going where we want to go．But it is also gravity pull that keeps our world together, that keeps the planets in their orbits and our universe in order．It is a powerful force, and if we use it effectively, we can use the gravity pull of habit to create the order necessary to establish effectiveness in our lives．

Window
Bill and John, both seriously ill, lived in the same room at Marie Hospital. John lived next to the only window of the room and was allowed to 21 in his bed and watch for an hour every day. But Bill had to spend all his time 22 on his back.
They became friends soon and talked for hours every day. They spoke of their families, their children, their hobbies, and their 23 in the American army. Each day John would sit up and 24 to his roommate Bill what he could see outside the window.
Through John's description, Bill's world was 25 and brightened by all the activities and colors of the outside world. The window overlooked a beautiful park with a lovely 26, John told Bill. Ducks played on the water 27 children sailed their model boats. And a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As John described all these 28 , Bill would close his eyes and 29 the picturesque scene. Bill was recovering 30 .However, John became weak day by day.
Late one night, Bill was lying in bed 31 the ceiling when John began to cough seriously. Then doctors and nurses rushed to the room. Thirty minutes later, John 32 coughing. Now, there was only silence-- 33 silence.
The following morning, Bill was moved to the bed next to the window at his request. Slowly and 34, he supported himself up on one elbow to take the first look. But to his 35 , he could see nothing but a 36 wall.
Only at that moment did he begin to realize that the pursuit of happiness was a matter of 37. It was a positive attitude we chose to express. It was not a gift that got 38 to our doorstep each morning, nor did it come through the window. It was an inward journey. Whether a man is happy or not depends on his own thoughts 39 anything outward.
So Bill began to describe the 40 world to his new roommate that he saw through the only window of the room.
