The sign said: “Yesterday the person who has been hindering (阻碍) your growth in this company passed away. We invite you to join the funeral (葬礼) in the room that has been prepared in the gym.”At first everyone was sad to hear that one of their colleagues had died, but after a while they started getting curious about who this person might be.The excitement grew as the employees arrived at the gym to pay their last respects. Everyone wondered: “Who is this person that was hindering my progress? Well, at least hes no longer here.”One by one the employees got closer to the coffin (棺材) and when they looked inside it they became speechless. They stood over the coffin, shocked and in silence, as if someone had touched the deepest part of their soul.There was a mirror inside the coffin. Everyone who looked inside it could see himself. There was also a sign next to the mirror that said: “There is only one person who can set limits to your growth: it is YOU.”You are the only person who can revolutionize (彻底改变) your life. You are the only person who can influence your happiness, your realization and your success. You are the only person who can help yourself.Your life does not change when your family changes, when your friends change, when your boss changes, and when your company changes.Your life changes when you change, when you go beyond your limiting beliefs, when you realize that you are the only one responsible for your life.56.

Perhaps，after all，it is safer to be driven by a woman.There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red，orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man see everything in shades of greena strange world indeed.Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”These help us see in a bright day and tell the difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”， but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but no color. Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes(蚊子) like blue but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects，but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day，and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.60.
