关于成功的英语作文
篇一:燃烧成功的欲望
The motivation to succeed comes from the burning desire to achieve a purpose. Napoleon Hill wrote, "Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve."
A young man asked Socrates the secret to success. Socrates told the young man to meet him near the river the next morning. They met. Socrates asked the young man to walk with him toward the river. When the water got up to their neck, Socrates took the young man by surprise and ducked(vt. 将……猛按入水) him into the water. The boy struggled to get out but Socrates was strong and kept him there until the boy started turning blue. Socrates pulled his head out of the water and the first thing the young man did was to gasp(vi.喘息) and take a deep breath of air. Socrates asked, "What did you want the most when you were there?" The boy replied, "Air." Socrates said, "That is the secret to success. When you want success as badly as you wanted the air, then you will get it.There is no other secret."
A burning desire is the starting point of all accomplishment. Just like a small fire cannot give much heat, a weak desire cannot produce great results.
成功的行动来自于那燃烧着的想要达成目的的欲望。拿破仑·希尔写道:"成功的意念能够到达个人的构想与信念所能到达的任何地方。"
一个年轻人向苏格拉底询问成功的秘诀,苏格拉底让年轻人第二天早晨到河边见他。他们见面后,苏格拉底叫年轻人和他一起走向河里,当河水淹至他们的脖子时,苏格拉底出其不意地抓住年轻人并把其压入水中,那人想要挣出水面,而强壮有力的苏格拉底将他摁在水中直到他变得无力抗争,脸色发青。苏格拉底将他的头拖出水面,这个年轻人所做的第一件事就是大口喘息后,深吸一口气。苏格拉底问:"当你闷在水里的时候你最想要的是什么?"年轻人回答说:"空气。"苏格拉底说:"那就是成功的秘诀。当你像渴望空气一样渴望成功,你就能够获得它!没有其他的秘密了。"
强烈的欲望是一切成功的起点,正如小火苗不能放出大量的热一样,一个微小的愿望也不能促成伟大的成就。
篇二:TO Success: Opportunity or hard-working?
Every body wants to succeed. But when it comes to the question that which factor leads to success, opportunity or hard-work, different people will offer different answers.
Some people think that opportunity is the first factor leading to success. They hold the idea, as a proverb saying, “Man proposes, god disposes”. Because almost all successful people have good luck and have caught their valuable opportunities, they believe that opportunity is a leading condition of the success. If seizes and makes the best use of opportunity available, one can succeed surely. In summary, to them, chances and lucks play the most important role on the road to success.
However, others maintain that “no pains, no gains” .Without exerting oneself, one could never expect to achieve success in no matter what one is doing. As is known to all, there is no royal road to the summit of success. One is likely to succeed only when one has worked with whole-hearted devotion and perseverance. Those who are lazy, sloppy and indifferent to their work, those who never concentrate on work will definitely end in failure. On the whole, as far as they are concerned, hard-working is the decisive factor to success.
In my view, both hard work and opportunity eventually matters. They are inseparable from each other, and put together, they make a great success. Hard work is to luck what fish is to water, and can be seen as an interior precondition of success. It lays the corner-stone for building a house while luck serves to cement it, to make the building bricks adherent to one another. They are the twins that contribute to success together. They are the factors from within and without respectively. We must work hard, make efforts and get prepared. When opportunities come, meet and make full use of them. Only in this way can we succeed one day.

篇四:性格决定成功 Disposition Decides to Man’s Success
As we all known, the man who wants to be success should have a good disposition. As the saying goes, “disposition decide to everything.” I remember a famous motto: there are no two identical people in the world, but the success people are similar in many ways. Exactly, good disposition is the foundation of success. From my point of view, I deemed it success should also rely on these factors: diligent, confident, humor. It can help us to open the door of success.
我们都知道想要成功的人都应该有一个好的性格。俗话说,“性格决定一切。”我记得一句著名的格言:在世界上没有两个相同的人,但成功人士在许多方面是相似的。确切地说,良好的性格是成功的基础。从我的角度来看,我认为成功依赖于这些因素:勤奋,自信,幽默。它可以帮助我们打开成功之门。
There is no denying that diligent is the first step to the success. As the proverb says, no pains, no gains. Absolutely, guess that a person without diligent, how can he get achievements. Many successful people have become famous in the world by their diligent. Therefore we should take diligence as a good habit rather than lazy at every time.
不可否认,勤奋是成功的第一步。正如谚语所说的,没有付出就没有收获。所以绝对可以说一个不勤奋的人,他如何能有成就。许多成功的人都是通过勤奋才在出名的。因此我们应该把勤奋作为一个良好的习惯,而不总是懒惰。
Edison said “confident is the mother of the success. There is no doubt that confidence is important to our daily life .If someone without confident, he will never succeed in the end of his life. If someone trusted himself, he would gained more chance to succeed. How could you get other’s trust if you didn't trust yourself?
爱迪生说:“自信是成功之母。毫无疑问,自信在我们的日常生活中是很重要的。如果一个没有自信的人,直到他走到生命的尽头他也不会成功的。如果有自信的人,他会得到更多成功的机会。如果连你自己都不相信自己你又如何要别人相信你呢?
In addition, humor plays an important role in our life. It’s obvious that a sense of humor can bring happiness to others and get involved to a group easily. Just like my friend who is an energetic and lovely boy. The boss and staff like him very much. Boss thinks highly of him in the company. Sometimes, we should learn to how express humorously. A sense of humor can create unexpected result.
再者,幽默在我们的生活中也扮演着很重要的角色。显然,一个有幽默感的人能给别人带来开心并很容易融进去。就像我一个朋友,他是一个很热情很可爱的男孩。老板和员工都很喜欢他。在公司老板很器重他。有时,我们应该学会如何表达幽默。幽默感能够创造出意想不到的成果。
From what has been mention above, a good disposition is an important factor to our success. Therefore, how to develop a good disposition is essential.
从上面所提到的可知,良好的性格是我们成功的重要因素。因此,如何培养良好性格是很重要的。
