The waiter shouted across the room, "Hey, friend! If you want to get paid, sing a song!’
So he did. He had never sung in public before. Now he was singing for the very first time! Nobody had ever heard the song Mona Lisa sung so beautifully!

Your best chance of success is by doing what you really want to do. Ask yourself, “If money were not so important, what kind of work would I do for free?” Then just do what you like to do.
Think about what you are going to do. You have to start somewhere and it may be quite a real beginning. Whether you are beginning in business or you’re dreaming to be a star, you have to start at the bottom.
Great ambition(目标)is necessary. An English student called Richard Brason opened a student magazine when he was only 16 years old. But he didn’t stop there. He also opened a record business with many shops, and now his company has planes, trains and cars.
The only people who succeed without hard work are lottery(彩票)winners. You need a “can do” attitude(态度)and you must work step by step, which will help you get what you really want. You are on the right way to win the success.
If you always say someone is successful, it doesn’t mean anything to you. Learn from those who have already succeeded in something, especially where they do the same as you want to do.

A.Think big
B.Start small
C.Follow the leaders
D.Find the work you love

E. Be prepared to work hard

Healthy Eating
Healthy eating is important to us. What and how should we eat to be healthy?
First, we must have enough food, never too much or too little. The food must be clean and we should cook it properly.
