I remember the exact moment I learned the principle of preparing for luck.
I was on the wrestling team. Now, if there’s one thing I can tell you about any sport, it is that wrestling is probably the sport that has the least   31  .There are only two people out on the mat, so you cannot   32  it on your teammates or your coach. And guess what? There is no   33    because we do the whole thing indoors, so you can’t say, “It was raining” or “It was snowing.” It makes   34 to say wrestling is the sport with the least luck.
On our team were two world champions; one of them had been a world champion five times. We   35  had five people who were national champions. One of them was a guy   36  the name of John.
John had never been   37  in any high school wrestling competition that I could remember, 38  he was a national champion. There was nobody locally who could touch him.
One day, we   39  a match with our biggest opponent(对手). John went out on the mat, and about a minute and 30 seconds into the match he tried to make a particular   40  He rolled over, and his opponent 41  him halfway through his roll. He waspinned(压住) 42 !
The match was over.
I remember on the way home, one of our teammates tried to 43  John by saying, “Oh, he just got lucky.” John said, “That’s so stupid. The 44  presented itself, and he just took advantage of it.”
We used to have this big   45  in our wrestling room that the coach had put there: “Luck is what happens when opportunity meets   46 .”
John’s opponent was prepared to make use of this opportunity. The possibility of beating John was not   47  and he knew it. But he waited for the 48   opportunity to present itself, and he defeated and pinned a five-time national champion.
In other words, the real 49  is “Be prepared!” It’s not just finding the opportunity; you have to be prepared to   50  it.

While attending a conference, I returned to my hotel room late one rainy evening. The overhead light outside my door was   36   and I had difficulty finding the keyhole. When I finally   37   to open the door, I   38   around the wall for a light switch. I found a   39   where a switch was once installed... but no switch.
No discouraged easily, I remembered seeing a   40   by the bed when I put away my luggage   41   in the day. I found the bed in the dark and felt around until I found the lamp, but when I switched it on, 42   happened! Now what?
Though I knew that it was dark outside my window   43   the outdoor light was burned out, I thought that   44   if I opened the curtains I might be able to use the light from the   45   to find another lamp. So I   46   my way slowly across the room to the curtains and... no draw-string!

But even more necessary than   49   light is the light that shines from people—the light of love, sympathy and   50 . Because, for many people, the world is a dark and   51   place.
It is the shining that is important, for someone today just may be stumbling in discouragement or fear and in   52   of some light.
So let your light shine. Whatever ligh you   53   may be a beacon（灯塔）of hope and encouragement in someone’s darkness. And if you feel that your light is   54   a candle in a forest, remember this—there isn’t enough darkness in the world to 55
the light of one small candle.
