Translation(P287)SectionB

恐惧和缺乏自信决定了我们相互交往和工作的方式。工作单位是冷酷的地方,你需要自己保护自己。要想在这场比赛中获胜,就要自力更生、有责任心、充满自信、意志坚定。首先,你要正确评价自己,意识到自己的价值。否则的话,一句话,你就有麻烦了。不管从事什么职业,要想成功就必须有自信心。这就是为什么你发现有些人没有什么天赋,但是内在动力很强大,比那些有天赋的人所取得的成功大得多。有了积极的思维,就有积极的态度、反应和情绪,这反过来就会促进成功。另一方面,态度消极、充满恐惧、疑虑重重、忧心忡忡,这样以来行为会更加消极。但是,我们可以消除头脑中的这些想法,取而代之以积极的信息,用信心来消除恐惧,用决心来消除疑虑,用工作来消除焦虑,用爱来消除恨。1.Beawareofwhatareaofyourlifeyouarehavingthesetbackin.2.Findpeoplewhocanhelpyou,peoplewho'vebeenthroughsimilarchallenges.3.Onceyouidentifythat
