行动成就梦想

刘嘉琦

每個人对未来都有梦想和目标，但是只有梦想和目标是不够的，行动才是连接梦想和目标与现实的桥梁。

Each of us has dreams and goals for our future. What makes us study and make progress each day is closely connected with our personal dream and goal.

But why do you have dreams and goals， you still end up with nothing？ What separates successful people from the dreamers is their persistent （锲而不舍的） action. When you learn your lessons in school， you must work hard and not give up. You will often find some of your lessons very hard. Try and keep trying， and you’ll be sure to successfully deal with any difficulty you meet with. If we have a hard lesson today， let us try our best to learn it well and then we shall be prepared for a harder one tomorrow.

This is the famous formula （公式） for success：

Dream > Believe > Achieve

Most people have what they want （Dream） and think they can realize their dreams （Believe）. And then they do nothing. They just imagine their dreams can come true. When they get tired waiting and lose a lot， they get bored. They say angrily how terrible their life is.

I personally believe that if you really want to achieve your dreams and goals in life， you have to add one thing to your success formula：

Dream > Believe > Act > Achieve

For me， act is the most important thing for success and that’s to take persistent action （Act）. If you say “I can’t do it” and give up， you can never do anything valuable. However， “I’ll try” creates wonders. Let’s remember that there will be obstacles in our life. We must face them bravely and solve them. Success is not something that falls down from the sky. Most successful people made their dreams come true because of their persistent action.

Please remember： Action is the bridge that connects our dreams and goals to reality.
