Hopes, ambitions(抱负), dreams. How many of yours will you achieve? When you look back at your life in the future, will you have good memories of all the things that you did? Or will you regret all the things that you didn't do?
Of course, there's no easy road to success, but one thing is certain: success won't come if you don't do anything. So how do you do it? This four﹣step model will help you to make your dreams come true.

Step 2:

1.Choose one or two ambitions. If you try to do everything, you won't do anything.
2.Set a time limit(限定). This is very important, because you will have a goal and you will also know when you have reached it.

Step 4:
This is when you change your intentions(意图) into specific actions, Prepare to do something at a specific time. If you don't do this, your dreams and plans will just stay as dreams and plans. So now I'm going to join a running club,becomes I'm meeting the president of the Cheetahs Running Club on Monday evening at 5:30.
Don't let your ambitions die. Follow this four step plan and make your dream come true.
A. Change I would like to…to I will… B. Change I did…to I do… C. How to be successful D. Change I'm going to…to I'm doing…on…at… E. Think about your ambitions F. Change I will…to I'm going to… |
