Recently I spoke to some of my students about what they wanted to do after they graduated, and what kind of job prospects they thought they had.

Given that I teach students who are trained to be doctors, I was surprised to find that most thought that they would not be able to get the jobs they wanted without “outside help”. “What kind of help is that?” I asked, expecting them to tell me that they would need a relative or family friend to help them out.

“Surgery（外科手术）”, one replied. I was pretty alarmed by that response. It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to getting a job. One girl told me that she was considering surgery to increase her height. “They break your legs, put in special extending screws, and slowly expand the gap between the two ends of the bone as it regrows. You can get at least 5 cm taller!”

At that point, I was shocked. I am short. I can’t deny that, but I don’t think I would put myself through months of pain just to be a few centimeters taller. I don’t even bother to wear shoes with thick soles, as I’m not trying to hide the fact that I am just not tall!

It seems to me that there is a trend toward wanting “perfection”, and that is an ideal that just does not exist in reality.

No one is born perfect, yet magazines, TV shows and movies present images of thin, tall, beautiful people as being the norm（标准）. Advertisements for slimming aids, beauty treatments and cosmetic surgery clinics fill the pages of newspapers, further creating an idea that “perfection” is a requirement, and that it must be purchased, no matter what the cost. In my opinion, skills, rather than appearance, should determine how successful a person is in his chosen career.

Another person’s enthusiasm was what set me moving toward the success I have achieved. That person was my stepmother.

I was nine years old when she entered our home in rural Virginia. My father me to her with these words: “I would like you to meet the fellow who is for being the worst boy in this county and will probably start throwing rocks at you no than tomorrow morning.”

My stepmother walked over to me, my head slightly upward, and looked me right in the eye. Then she looked at my father and replied,“You are . This is not the worst boy at all, the smartest one who hasn’t yet found an outlet（释放的途径）for his enthusiasm.”

That statement began a(n) between us. No one had ever called me smart. My family and neighbors had built me up in my as a bad boy . My stepmother changed all that.

She changed many things. She my father to go to a dental school, from which he graduated with honors. She moved our family into the county seat, where my father’s career could be more and my brother and I could be better .

When I turned fourteen, she bought me a secondhand and told me that she believed that I could become a writer. I knew her enthusiasm, I it had already improved our lives. I accepted her and began to write for local newspapers. I was doing the same kind of that great day I went to interview Andrew Carnegie and received the task which became my life’s work later. I wasn’t the beneficiary (受益者). My father became the man in town. My brother and stepbrothers became a physician, a dentist, a lawyer, and a college president.

What power has! When that power is released to support the certainty of one’s purpose and is strengthened by faith, it becomes an irresistible（不可抗拒的）force which poverty and temporary defeat can never .

You can communicate that power to anyone who needs it. This is probably the greatest work you can do with your enthusiasm.
