【推荐3】Invest in Your Passion to Find Success

Achievements aren’t easy. In fact, you will never feel a sense of achievement from doing something that is easy for you. The first time I climbed a mountain that was more than 5,000 meters high, it was _________: I was cold, I felt sick, and I couldn’t eat. But the satisfaction of persisting and achieving my goal was great. _________, the second time I climbed a mountain over 5,000 meters high, since I was better _________, it was not as hard. But reaching the top this time did not feel like as much of a(n) _________. So the more difficult it is to achieve the goal, the more you have to love it and have a passion for it in order to reach it.

Passion sets apart the people who love their work from the people who _________ through their work. It makes the pursuit of excellence _________. It also _________ the top achievers from the merely good ones. In One and Only, a dance film _________ this past summer, it is passion for street dance that _________ the main character Chen Shuo to pursue his dream and dance all the way to success.

The American psychologist Angela Duckworth has studied people who are highly __________ — swimming champions, spelling bee champions, CEOs — and concluded that their achievements result from grit which is the ability to persist in spite of failure and __________. But grit is not just something that some people are born with and some people aren’t. Grit comes from passion. If you want to be highly successful, you need to find the thing that you have a passion for and __________ it. My advice is to try as many things as you can as early as possible, and find the one thing that you love most.

Do you need to be a champion swimmer or a CEO to be happy? Probably not. But most of us would feel a lot more __________ doing something we have a passion for than something we don’t. __________, the natural born artist will probably not do well as an accountant. And the __________ person who loves numbers and analysis will probably not be happy cold calling (电话推销) people and going door to door as a salesperson.
