We all want to be successful, but it is not something everyone can achieve. Although I do not have a lot of money or a girlfriend, I still think I’m a successful college student. My English cram school taught me that it’s not how much you prepare for success but whether you decide to be successful or not. I have never forgotten this. Success is not a consequence but is a way of life! You may ask how I am so confident. Confidence is something you can possess if you want it. It’s not the things you own that makes you confident but the reverse. The past is unimportant. No matter how bad you were, or how many stupid things you may have done, they were all in the past and mean nothing. You just have to accept yourself now. Face all challenges bravely and overcome them. All the difficulties in life will vanish. They will all be stepping stones you have crossed. You should be happy to encounter problems because you solved them and learned from the process. Most importantly, don’t hesitate, just step out and you will see a whole new world. Humor Humor is not about making people laugh. How do you define humor? It is a way of life, an attitude. When you encounter difficulties, face them with a sense of humor! Don’t despair at the problems you face. There are always ways to overcome them. Smile Smiling is not just an expression. It is also an attitude. When you are socializing or doing something, if you maintain your smile you will keep the conversation in a good mood. Things will be better when you are happy. So when you are facing difficulties, don’t forget to smile. Honesty Don’t forget be true to yourself. Mistakes may have been made, but it’s fine. Face your mistakes honestly. In contrast, when receiving awards or getting good results you should feel happy and that you deserved it because of your efforts and sacrifices. Dealing with others in an honest manner is also important. Let people know you, the truth of you. People who know your true self won’t be afraid of you. They will be happy to accept you, to tell you how they feel, and to assist you in solving your problems. Confidence It is easy to achieve confidence just by thinking about it. Nobody likes people who are pessimistic and negative. Being with such people is really tiring. The people around you will be affected by your negativity. There are many ways to be confident, so don’t give people a chance to think you are unsure of yourself. Opportunities Whether something comes to you by chance doesn’t matter. Grab it! Besides, chances can be created. So never say you are not lucky enough to have an opportunity to win, to make money, to meet a good man or a good woman. You will always have the chance, but it up to you to decide to use it or not. So don’t just sit in your comfortable circle. Stand up and walk out of it and your world will change. Health Health is an important part of success. Without health, you cannot say you are successful. Success equates to perfection. If you are successful, you own everything including health. Health can improve your efficiency, make you happy, enhance your confidence, and make you live longer. Wealth Money is not the most important thing, but we can’t ignore the fact that money is useful. That is why many people dream of making big money! The truth is that many things in the world are related to money, an unavoidable fact. However, if we make good use of money we can accomplish more. We can use it to fulfill our dreams but also to help people. That is why we should emphasize wealth. Wealth will help your life become more convenient, allowing you to dedicate more time to your own success. Love I truly believe that love exists in the world. That‘s why I am happy to confront the challenges I meet. Love is not only a male-female issue. You can find it everywhere. Parents, pets, friends, relatives, politicians, enemies, classmates, colleagues are all related to love. They may seem hostile to you, but changing your viewpoint allows the world to change along with you. You should understand the love behind their actions. You have to think about their reasons, and you’ll find they are full of love and meaning. So don’t hate the world. Look on the bright side and you can find positivity in everything! a
