Day 10
一、回答问题
Do Yao Ming, Liu Xiang and Justine Henin have anything in common with people like us? You probably answer “No!”
It seems that top athletes live in a world that is completely different from ours. However, if we could see into their minds, it would be clear that they are actually just like us.
To achieve their goals, sportspeople not only have to prepare physically, but mentally (内心地). They have to get to know themselves, manage stress and develop their powers of concentration. So they can put all their effort into their events.
We may not be sports stars ourselves, but we have to face same problems. We set goals for ourselves and think about personal development. We have to manage our fears before big exams. We worry about our friendships with both classmates and teachers.
Like sportspeople, we try to be mentally strong and give our best.
Only few of us will be competing in the Olympic Games. But, all the same, there is much we share with sports heroes. Just like athletes, how we feel influences our decisions, behavior and achievements.
Top athletes show us that success isn’t simply down to chance. We can control the direction of our life’s journey.
