Question

【题目】We are excited when we reach our goals, and at that moment we laugh, clap, even are over the moon. Without doubt, good results make us joyful. However, we can not always get what we want and be the winner all the time. Some people can’t help doubting, “ Are our efforts in vain?”

The answer is “No”. We should remember that we are not only measured by how many goals we’ve reached, but also by how we’ve acted, which means the process(过程)is also important.

Here is an example. Fruit is delicious. It takes trees a long time to bear it. In the process of growing, trees have to suffer from bad weather, insect bites and also intentional destruction(故意破坏) from human beings. So it is with us. Our life is like a journey. At the beginning, we set a destination（目标）, dreaming of it every night, but we should never forget that we spend most of our time on the journey. Unfortunately, many people only complain about the failure and then give up hope. In fact, it is failure that teaches us to be brave and stand on our own feet.

I myself deeply believe that only those who have experienced a lot can own the highly-valued character; only those who have taken a lot of adventures can have the chance to succeed. As the saying goes, “No pains, no gains.” We are still young, still full of energy, so why are we afraid of failure and why do we hesitate(犹豫)to take an adventure?

Young men, let’s forget results, leave out pains, and just look forward and don’t miss any chance on the journey!
