幸运就是为机会做准备的过程。 罗马哲学家赛尼加

How well do you think you will perform on a date, job interview, or sporting event if your thoughts are filled with reasons you will fail? The odds would not be in your favor. The best athletes see themselves winning a game long before it starts. The best stage actors imagine an audience exploding with laughter and applause before they set foot on stage. If you’re going to a job interview, imagine how thoughtful your responses will be during your drive. If you’re preparing for a date, imagine how classy/handsome/sexy/funny the other person will find you while you get dressed. You must first see success happen before you can make it happen.

如果脑海中填满了失败的想法，你觉得自己在约会、面试或运动赛事上的胜算还能有多大?事情也不会如你所愿。最好的运动员在比赛开始之前就能预见赢得比赛;最好的舞台演员在登场之前就会想象观众雷鸣般的笑声和掌声;如果你要去参加面试，路上想象一下你的回答会很周到;如果要准备约会，打扮的时候想象一下另一半会觉得你是多么的古典/帅气/性感/可爱。你必须在事情发生之前就去预见成功。

3. Focus on the Positive

保持积极的心态

The best luck of all is the luck you make for yourself. – Douglas MacArthur
