My mother is the type of woman who    32   that a late night call or a surprise invitation is a sign of bad news. “I thought that it would be    33   to pass some time with you,” I responded. “Just the    34   of us.” She thought about it for a moment, then said, “I would like that very much.” 
We went to a restaurant that, although not elegant, was very nice and    35  . My mother took my arm    36   she were the First Lady.

I want to make the most of every day. And, like most people, I've      that the best way to do it is (to) let go of past failures. But that's not all. One can never fully      today while thinking too much about past successes, either. People never      while resting comfortably on their laurels (荣誉). The      is that sometimes our successes hold us back more than our failures!
I once      a story about the Oscar owner, actor Clark Gable. A friend      Gable one afternoon at the actor's home. She brought along her      son, who was playing happily with toy cars on the floor. He      he was racing those cars around a great track, which in      was an imaginary circle around a golden statue. The small statue the boy played with was actually the Oscar Clark Gable      for his performance in the 1934 movie It Happened One Night.
When his mother told him the time had come to      , the little boy asked the actor, “Can I have this?”      to the Oscar.
“Sure,” he smiled. “It's yours.”
The horrified mother       . “Put that back immediately!”
Giving the child the golden statue, Clark Gable said, “Having the Oscar around doesn't mean anything to me;       it does.” The actor seemed to know that past success could be a       hammock (吊床) upon which he may be tempted to     , rather than a springboard setting him to begin a new start.
You may have learned to let go of past       and mistakes in order to free the present. But will you forget past successes and achievements in order to free the      ?Will your past be a springboard or a restful hammock?
“I like the       of the future better than the history of the past,” said Thomas Jefferson. I     . After all, the future, not the past, is where the rest of your life will be lived.

In a world where comparisons happen non-stop, it is difficult to look outside yourself and to ever be   46  with who you are. There’s always someone who’s a bit   47 . The only solution is to reach   48  and measure against what Warren Buffett calls your own inner yardstick. There is no more   49  measure for comparison than who your were yesterday, last week or last decade, when you were at your   50 .
Nothing useful ever comes from comparison to others. Either you see yourself as better than someone and you get   51 , or you see someone else as better than you and you feel like all your hard work is for   52 . It is a fool’s game. Not one of us is exactly   53 . The only direct and honest comparison is   54  yourself. Everything else is apples to oranges.
My opinion is that you are only   55  to compare yourself to someone else if their life  56  is the same as your own. Good luck finding that   57 . And one thing is for sure. No matter how hard you work and how dedicated(埋头苦干的)you are, there will always be someone who can run a little faster, jump a little higher, score a little better or look a little nicer in a swimsuit. And if there’s not, you can   58  someone is coming up fast   59  you. So how can you always win in life? Become your best   60 .
Having an image of your most recent past limits is the perfect thing to   61  you to the next level. If you ran 7 flights of stairs yesterday, then do 8 today. Who  62  if the guy next to you did 15? It doesn’t make a bit of   63 . You are a more  64  person today than you were yesterday. Your own   65  is all you need.

Think of the  20  you had to go to bed early, you had to eat  21  thing that was supposed to be good for you. Remember  22  “gentle” pressure was given to you with words like “If you don’t do as I say, I will…”. I’m sure you will never forget!
