8、y know a lot of the things you need to know to become the person you want to be. You have your “hearts desire“ deep inside of you. Theres something that you were put on this earth uniquely to accomplish. Theres something that you, and only you, can do. And when you find your hearts desire, youll hav

9、e the key to unlocking your potential in every other part of your life. Youll have the key to happiness, satisfaction, fulfillment and the joy thats your natural birthright. BTake some time to determine the kind of person youd like to be, and the kind of person youd have to become in order to live t

10、he kind of life that youd like to live. Remember, you cant accomplish it on the outside until you become it on the inside. CTo unlock your inner potential, you must set very clear, challenging and, yet, realistic goals and then make plans to accomplish them. You need to work, step-by-step, every day

11、, in the direction of your dominant aspirations. You need to develop an unshakable level of self-confidence that makes you virtually unstoppable. Momentum is the key to long-term success. DThe momentum theory of success simply says that while it may take 10 units of energy to get you moving in a par

12、ticular direction, it takes only one unit of energy to keep you moving once youre in motion. You have the principle of momentum working in your favor. EHow do you use the momentum principle in your life? Well, its simple. Lets say that your goal is to become financially independent. To do this, you

13、have to pay off all of your existing debts and build up a cash reserve of three to six months of living expenses. When you reach that point, your entire personality will change. Youll be more clearheaded, youll be more positive, youll be more determined, youll be more optimistic, youll be a finer an

14、d better human being when you absolutely know that youre not dependent upon anyone for your living expenses. Youll be able to choose the job you want to do and go to the places you want to go. You wont have to tolerate any situation that you do not enjoy or that you feel isnt the best use of your pe

15、rsonal potential. FIf you simultaneously work on strengthening your self-discipline and using it to achieve the goal of financial independence, youll become a better, stronger and more powerful human being. Youll cast off the bonds of helplessness and begin to feel that theres nothing in the world t

16、hat you cant do or be or have. GWhen you set clear goals or objectives for yourself, when you dream big dreams and then determine to become the kind of person whos capable of achieving the kind of goals that you want to achieve, you convince yourself, at a deep, subconscious level, that youre absolu

17、tely unstoppable. You realize at last that nothing in the world can hold you back except your own thinking, and you dont even let your own thinking limit your potential. What beliefs might you have that are holding you back? HEach one of us has feelings of inferiority that are manifested in the conc

18、lusion that we are not good enough. We think that we are not as good as other people, and we feel that we are not good enough to acquire and enjoy the things that we want in life. Very often, we feel that we dont deserve good things. Even if we do work hard and achieve some worthwhile objectives, we

19、 believe that we are not really entitled to our successes, and we often engage in behaviors that sabotage our successes. IThe fact is that you deserve every good thing that you are capable of acquiring as the result of the application of your talents. The only real limitation on what you can be and

20、have is your absence of desire. If you want something badly enough, nothing in the world can stop you from getting it, if you are willing to persist long enough and hard enough. Over and over, we find that our beliefs, more than anything else, act as the brakes on our capacities. We have high hopes

21、and dreams and aspirations, but we let doubts creep in and undermine our competence and effectiveness. JThe most harmful beliefs that you can have are what we call “self-limiting beliefs.“ These are beliefs about yourself, most of which are not true; but they hold you back nonetheless Sometimes you,

22、 or others, will say that you cannot achieve certain goals because you did not get enough education Sometimes you will say that it is because of your gender or race or age or the state of the economy. KThe starting point to change your beliefs is to get up the courage to question them seriously. Que

23、stion your basic premises. Check your assumptions. Ask yourself, “What assumptions am I making about myself or my situation that might not be true?“ LIts a fact that we fall in love with our excuses and our assumptions. We fall in love with our reasons for not moving ahead. Even if someone comes alo

24、ng and challenges those reasons, even if someone tells you that you have the capacity to accomplish marvelous things, you will argue with him. If someone tells you that you can do far better than youre doing right now, you will come up with reasons to dispute this persons greater belief in your pote

25、ntial. Believing in yourself. MYour beliefs about reality are based on a thousand influences, many of which began even before you were aware of what was going on. You have beliefs that are deep and beliefs that are shallow. Deep beliefs, with regard to your religion or your political party or your f

26、amily, or especially yourself, are very hard to change. Shallow beliefs are easily changed. And many of your beliefs are in fact very shallow. They have no substance to them whatsoever. If you challenge them hard enough, youll find that they are made of tissue paper. Theyll simply blow away. NYou ca

27、n always tell what your true values and beliefs are by looking at your actions. It isnt what you say or wish or hope or intend that demonstrates what you really believe. Its only what you do. Its only the behaviors that you engage in. Its only the actions that you choose to undertake. Your values an

28、d beliefs are always expressed in your actions and behaviors. OOnce youve clearly decided on the person you would like to become, you are on the path toward developing new beliefs. You then discipline yourself each day to behave exactly as you would if you were already that person. That simple techn

29、ique, the “act as if“ technique, is extraordinarily powerful. The more you act like the person you want to be, the more consistent your attitude will be with that persons. Your attitude will have the back-flow effect of affecting your expectations. Positive expectations will have the back-flow effec

30、t of building beliefs that are consistent with them. And your beliefs will exert an influence on your values. PPeople succeed not because they have remarkable characteristics or qualities. The most successful people are quite ordinary, just like you and me. Most of us start off poor and confused. We

31、 spend many years getting some sort of direction in our lives. But the turning point comes when we begin to believe that we have within us that divine spark that can lead us onward and upward to the accomplishment of anything that we really want in life.（分数：20.00）(1).It is difficult to change deep b

36、esies. In an article on the new manners, Ms. Holmes says that a perfectly able woman no longer has to act helplessly in public as if she were a model. For example, she doesnt need help getting in and out of cars. “Women get in and out of cars twenty times a day with babies and dogs. Surely they can

37、get out by themselves at night just as easily.“ She also says there is no reason why a man should walk on the outside of a woman on the sidewalk. “Historically, the man walked on the inside so he caught the garbage thrown out of a window. Today a man is supposed to walk on the outside. A man should

38、walk where he wants to. So should a woman. If, out of love and respect, he actually wants to take the blows, he should walk on the insidebecause thats where attackers are all hiding these days.“ As far as manners are concerned, I suppose I have always been a supporter of womens liberation. Over the

39、years, out of a sense of respect, I imagine, I have refused to trouble women with outdated courtesies. It is usually easier to follow rules of social behavior than to depend on ones own taste. But rules may be safely broken, of Course, by those of us with the gift of natural grace. For example, when

40、 a man and a woman are led to their table in a restaurant and the waiter pulls out a chair, the woman is expected to sit in the chair. That is according to Ms. Ann Clark. I have always done it the other way, according to my wife. It came up only the other night, I followed the hostess to the table,

41、and when she pulled the chair out I sat On it, quite naturally, since it happened to be the chair I wanted to sit in. “Well,“ my wife said, when the hostess had gone, “you did it again.“ “Did what?“ I asked, utterly confused. “Took the chair.“ Actually, since Id walked through the restaurant ahead o

42、f my wife, it would have been awkward, I should think, not to have taken the chair. I had got there first, after all. Also, it has always been my custom to get in a car first, and let the woman get in by herself. This is a courtesy I insist on as the stronger sex, out of love and respect. In times l

43、ike these, there might be attackers hidden about. It would be unsuitable to put a woman in a car and then shut the door on her, leaving her at the mercy of some bad fellow who might be hiding in the back seat.（分数：10.00）(1).It can be concluded from the passage that_.（分数：2.00）A.its safe to break rules
