The Secret of Success
The secret of success is that there is no secret. Some people succeed because they are just ____ than other people. Some people succeed because they just work harder than other people. And some people succeed because they are just plain lucky.
　　Ma Donghan is a student at Tsinghua University who is ____ to be successful and she’s not going to leave it to luck. Ma is obviously smart because she’s a student at the best university in China, but her plan for success is ____ on the old fashion value of hard work. You can see that by the weekly schedule she’s set up for herself which was recently posted online.
　　Every hour of every day is accounted for. There is her classroom ____, of course, but then blocks of time are set aside for ____ each subject and also for a few activities like playing sports. There are no hours set aside for just relaxing and there are only five hours allotted (分配) each night for sleeping. She has set a very ___, almost punishing schedule for herself, but it seems to be working.
　　Other students ____ at Ma’s diligence and discipline but doubt that they could achieve the same level of success. Perhaps not, but Ma is obviously a unique and special ____. She has set high goals, made a plan to achieve those goals, and worked hard to keep to her plan. This is what other students can learn from Ma.
In school, as in life, ____ is never guaranteed and not everyone will find him or herself at the top of the pyramid. The important thing to remember is that having a plan and working hard to stay with the plan will bring you a level of success that just being smart and lucky cannot.
