its quite simple, really. double your rate of failure. you are thinking of failure as the enemy of success. but it isnt at all. you can be discouraged by failure or you can learn from it, so go ahead and make mistakes. make all you can. because remember thats where you will find success.” never fear failure, it is failure that will bring you success. embrace failure, become a student of failure, learn from failure, and soon you will succeed.success is not about doing what the average person cant do, its about doing what the average person is unwilling to do. and on a deeper level, its about creating habits that the average person is unwilling to create. its the habit of doing things with excellence that cause success. success is the enjoyment of the journey. you have to enjoy the journey!someone once said, “unless you change how you are, you will always have what youve got.” you have to changeyou will change, you will succeed.11. if you want to succeed, you should _.a. make efforts to achieve itb. be a special personc. face it with feard. do everything important12. whats habakkuks opinion?a. we should make our aims common.b. we should set up a clear target.c. we should have motivation.d. desire is the key to motivation. 13. the main idea of the third paragraph is that _. a. success needs showing upb. 70% of people can succeedc. you should show your hoped. you should fight for success14. thomas j. watson encourages us to _.a. retire from failure b. escape from failurec. make double mistakesd. grow from failure15. which is the best title of the passage?
