　　易恩和富雷得都是男孩,他们都十二岁了.他们在学校里是同班同学.上周五下午他们在学校里打了一架.为此老师很生气.老师对他们说：“下午下课后留在着把你们的名字写一千遍.”

　　最后一节课下课,所有的学生都回家了.只有易恩和富雷得被他们的老师留在教师里抄写他们的名字.

　　接着富雷得哭了起来.

　　老师看了看他问：“富雷得,你为什么要哭呢?”

　　翻译：

　　如果失败了你会怎么做?很多人可能会选择放弃.然而,要想成功,最可靠的方法就是坚持你的方向和目标.

　　在通往成功的路上,你必须坚持你的方向.它就像一盏灯,在黑暗中为你指路,帮助你度过难关.否则,你很容易就会迷失方向或犹豫不前.

　　方向意味着目标.人生如果没有目标,将一事无成.

　　你可以试着把你的目标写在纸上,并制定实现目标的计划.这样,你就会懂得如何合理安排时间,如何正确地支配时间.而且你还要有这样的信念：只要你一直坚持自己的方向,你就一定可以成功.
