假如我又回到了童年

I would practice perseverance more often,

and never give up a thing If we want light, we must conquer darkness.

Perseverance can sometimes equal genius in its results.

“There are only two creatures," syas a proverb,

“who can surmount the pyramids-the eagle and the snail."

If I were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention;

I would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand.

I would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once.

The habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begain early enough.

I often hear grown up people say " I could not fix my attention on the sermon or book,a

although I wished to do so" , and the reason is, the habit was not formed in youth.

If I were to live my life over again, I would pay more attention to the cultivation of the memory.

I would strengthen that faculty by every possible means, and on every possible occasion.

It takes a little hard work at first to remember things accurately;

but memory soon helps itself, and gives very little trouble.

It only needs early cultivation to become a power.

If I were a boy again

假如我又回到了童年，我做事要更有毅力，決不因?yàn)槭虑槠D難或者麻煩而撒手不干，我們要光明，就得征服黑暗。

毅力在效果上有時(shí)能同天才相比。俗話(huà)說(shuō)：“能登上金字塔的生物，只有兩種——鷹和蝸牛。”

假如我又回到了童年，我就要養(yǎng)成專(zhuān)心致志的習(xí)慣;有事在手，就決不讓任何東西讓我分心。

我要牢記：優(yōu)秀的滑冰手從不試圖同時(shí)滑向兩個(gè)不同的方向。

如果及早養(yǎng)成這種專(zhuān)心致志的習(xí)慣，它將成為我們生命的一部分。

我常聽(tīng)成年人說(shuō)：“雖然我希望能集中注意力聽(tīng)牧師講道理或讀書(shū)，但往往做不到。”

而原因就是年輕時(shí)沒(méi)有養(yǎng)成這種習(xí)慣。

假如我現(xiàn)在能重新開(kāi)始我的生命，我就要更注意記憶力的培養(yǎng)。

我要采取一切可能的辦法，并且在一切可能的場(chǎng)合，增強(qiáng)記憶力。

要正確無(wú)誤地記住一些東西，在開(kāi)始階段的確要作出一番小小的努力;

但要不了多久，記憶力本身就會(huì)起作用，使記憶成為輕而易舉的事，只需及早培養(yǎng)，記憶自會(huì)成為一種才能。
