One fine day, I was sitting in a quiet room at the Miclroft Hotel, a peaceful place about an hour out of Toronoto. It was just past noon, late July, and I was 1 to the desperate sounds of a life —or— death 2 going on a few feet away．
There was a small fly 3 the last of its short life' s energies in a useless 4 to fly through the glass of the window．The whining （发出嗡嗡声） wings told the 5 story of the fly' s strategy: Try harder．But it' s not working．
The great effort offered no hope for its 6 ．Instead, the struggle was part of the trap．It was 7 for the fly to try hard enough to succeed in breaking through the glass: This fly's fate was 8 ．It would die there near the window． 9 the room; ten steps away, the door was 10 ．By ten seconds of flying, this small creature could 11 the outside world．With only a bit of the 12 now being wasted, it could be free of this self - imposed （自设的） trap．The breakthrough possibility was 13 .It would be so easy．
Why didn't the fly try 14 approach? How did it get so locked in the idea that this 15 route and determined effort offered the most 16 for success? No doubt this approach made sense to the fly． 17 , it was an idea that would kill it．
Trying harder isn't necessarily the solution to achieving more．It 18 offer any real promise for getting what you want out of life．Sometimes, 19 , it' s a big part of the problem．If you stake （拿……冒险） your hopes for a breakthrough on trying harder than ever, you may 20 your chances for success．
