If youre really angry, channel these emotions to motivate yourself to start again._13_ Its not good to bottle up feelings, but you cant take out your anger on those around you for no good reason. Go for a run or a swim to give yourself space to think. Just do something to distract (使分散注意力) yourself from the strong feelings until you calm down._14_ Not only will your failure soon be yesterdays news, but if you think other people are judging you, it wont be long before theyre busy worrying about their own failures. After all, everyone is going to fail now and then. So does it really matter what others think?Stop worrying, start laughing. The sun will come up again tomorrow. Things might be terrible for a little while but how will worrying help? Think back to a time when you worried a lot. _15_ Most likely not, apart from giving you more wrinkles (皱纹) and gray hair. The greatest thing you can do for yourself during failure is to use humor.A. Remain calm.B. Dont take your anger out on others.C. Lifes hard knocks are as common as lifes successes.D. Forget about how other people view you.E. Focus on trying again.F. Did it make any difference?G.
