Positive Attitude towards Failure

I clearly remember a period during which I felt like a failure.But what I 31  learned was that failing at one thing is not failing at all things.And,in fact,failure is a 32  part of growth.Life is filled with trial and 33  .In order to walk the path to 34,you need to make some 35  turns along the way.What I learned was to"fail forward",to 36  each mistake to make myself better.One of the  37  problems people have with failure is that they are too quick to judge isolated 38  in their lives and label them as failures.39  ,they need to keep the bigger picture in mind.A successful baseball player doesn't 40  at a mistake he makes and think of failure.He sees it within the context of the bigger picture.

Self-reliance (自立）

 

Everyone has heard(hear)the word"self-reliance".Emerson wrote a 41  (fame)essay about it.He felt that people should trust in their own 42  (able).They should think and act for themselves.Like many such 43  (term),this one had no real meaning for me until it was 44 

（demonstrate)to me in real life.

Last year I met a blind girl 45(name)Gail.She was 46  (extreme)slender and weak,but she always insisted on 47  (find)her way around the school by herself.When she 48  (sit)in a room with several of us,there was sometimes a(n)49(easy)silence,because we thought she might resent our acting too cheerful and thoughtless in her 50  (present).On such occasions, she would say something casual or show us how fast she could write.She never asked for anyone's pity.She truly relied on herself.
