幻想一步成功者突遭失败，会觉得浪费了时间，付出了精力，却认为没有任何收获;在失败面前，懦弱者痛苦迷茫，彷徨畏缩;而强者却坚持不懈，紧追不舍。以下是我带来英文短篇的励志文章的相关内容，希望对你有帮助。
There is no better school than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve my performance next time. Never again will I contribute to my downfall by refusing to face the truth and learn from my past mistakes. Because I know: gems cannot shine without polish, and I can not perfect myself without hardship.
Now I know that there are no times in life when opportunity, the chance to be and do gathers so richly about my soul when it has to suffer cruel adversity. Then everything depends on whether I raise my head or lower it in seeking help. Whenever I am struck down, in the future, by any terrible defeat, I will inquire of myself, after the first pain has passed, how I can turn that adversity into good. What a great opportunity that moment may present……to take the bitter root I am holding and transform it into fragrant garden of flowers.
Always will I seek the seed of triumph in every adversity.

逆境是一所最好的学校。每一次失败，每一次打击，每一次损失，都蕴育着成功的萌芽，都教会我在下一次有更出色的表现。我再也不会逃避现实，也不会拒绝从以往的错误中获取经验，我不再因此而促成自己的失败。因为我知道，宝玉不经磨砺就不能发光，没有，我也不能完善自我。
现在我知道，灵魂倍受煎熬的时刻，也正是生命中最多选择与机会的时刻。任何事情的成败取决于我在寻求帮助时是抬起头还是低下头。无论何时，当我被可怕的失败击倒，在最初的阵痛过去之后，我都要想方设法将苦难变成好事。伟大的机遇就在这一刻闪现——这苦涩的根必将迎来满园芬芳！
年轻，并非人生旅程的一段时光，也并非粉颊红唇和体魄的矫健。
它是心灵中的一种状态，是头脑中的一个意念，是理性思维中的创造潜力，是情感活动中的一股勃勃的'朝气，是人生春色深处的一缕东风。
年轻，意味着甘愿放弃温馨浪漫的爱情去闯荡生活，意味着超越羞涩、怯懦和欲望的胆识与气质。而60岁的男人可能比20岁的小伙子更多地拥有这种胆识与气质。没有人仅仅因为时光的流逝而变得衰老，只是随着理想的毁灭，人类才出现了老人。
岁月可以在皮肤上留下皱纹，却无法为灵魂刻上一丝痕迹。忧虑、恐惧、缺乏自信才使人佝偻于时间尘埃之中。
无论是60岁还是16岁，每个人都会被未来所吸引，都会对人生竞争中的欢乐怀着孩子般无穷无尽的渴望。
在你我心灵的深处，同样有一个无线电台，只要它不停地从人群中，从无限的时间中接受美好、希望、欢欣、勇气和力量的信息，你我就永远年轻。一旦这无线电台坍塌，你的心便会被玩世不恭和悲观失望的寒冷酷雪所覆盖，你便衰老了—即使你只有20岁。但如果这无线电台始终矗立在你心中，捕捉着每个乐观向上的电波，你便有希望超过年轻的80岁。
所以只要勇于有梦，敢于追梦，勤于圆梦，我们就永远年轻！
千万不要动不动就说自己老了，错误引导自己！年轻就是力量，有梦就有未来！
英文全文如下：
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind. It is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees. It is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep spring of life.
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exits in a man of 60, more than a boy of 20.nobody grows merely by the number of years; we grow old by deserting our ideas. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust1 bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from infinite, so long as you are young.
When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with the snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you’ve grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there’s hope you may die young at 80.
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind. It is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep spring of life. These are what I have and what we have at this period of life. So, I'm still young, yes, definitely ! Come on my fellow friends, show your energy and passion to this god damn world ! Let the universe hear our voice, see our cheek, hug our enthusiasm and witness our maturity. We're going to create a brand new future !
A boy was born to a couple after 11 years of marriage. They were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their eye. When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for work so he asked his wife to cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard. His wife, preoccupied in the kitchen, totally forgot about the matter. The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle and fascinated by its color, drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages. When the child collapsed, the mother hurried him to the hospital, where he died. The mother was stunned. She was terrified how to face her husband. When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at his wife and uttered just four words.
QUESTIONS:
What were the four words? What is the implication of this story?
ANSWER:
The husband just said, “I Love You Darling.” The husband’s totally unexpected reaction is proactive behavior. The child is dead. He can never be brought back to life. There is no point in finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he had taken time to keep the bottle away, this would not have happened. No one is to be blamed. She had lost her only child. What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her. If everyone can look at life with this kind of perspective, there would be much fewer problems in the world. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiving attitude, selfishness, and fears. And you will find things are actually not as difficult as you think. “A successful relationship requires falling in love many times — with the same person.”
一对夫妇在婚后十一年生了一个男孩，夫妻恩爱，男孩自然是二人的宝贝。男孩两岁的某一天，丈夫在出门上班之际，看到桌上有一药瓶打开了，不过因为赶时间，他只扬声妻子把药瓶收好，然后就上班去了。妻子在厨房忙得团团转，完全忘了丈夫的叮嘱。小男孩看到药瓶走了过去，他觉得好奇，又被药水的颜色所吸引，于是拿起它一饮而尽。药水成份厉害，即使成人服用也只能用少量。男孩服药过量昏厥，被母亲送到医院后，已经无力回天。妻子被事实吓呆了，不知该如何面对丈夫。心情紧张的父亲赶到医院，得知噩耗非常伤心，看儿子的尸体，望了妻子一眼，然后就说了四个字。
作者留下两个问题：
一是这丈夫说了哪四个字?二是这则故事的主旨是什么?
答案是：
丈夫只说了一句：“I love you, darling!”他完全出乎意料的反应是先发制人的(即反过来控制局面，而不被局面控制)。儿子的死已成事实，无论怎样也不会死而复生了，埋怨母亲没有丝毫意义。况且，如果当时他花些时间把药瓶收起来，这事也不会发生了。不应该为了这件事责怪任何一个人，妻子也同样失去了儿子。在那时她需要的只是丈夫的安慰和同情。这四个字就是他所给予她的安慰。如果人人都能用这样的观点来看待生活，世上就会少了许多问题。放下所有的怨恨、嫉妒、不宽容的态度、自私以及惧怕，你会发现事情的境况原来并不如想象中的差。“与同一个人相爱多次，你们之间才能建立起成功的关系。”
这故事，主旨是彰显人类选择的自我层次，同一件不幸的事你可以怨天尤人，痛骂社会，甚至自责无穷，但事情却不因这些而改变，这一切只改变了你和日后的生活，负着疤痕的活下去。反之，放下怨恨和惧怕，放下过去，勇敢的活下去，事情的境况并不如想象中的差，这就是作者所说的Proactive Behavior，也就是我们所说的由人转境，而不是被外界事物牵走。很简短的故事，但是，有多少人能做到呢?当我看到那句“I love you, darling!”的时候，心中感慨万千，多么简单的一句话，但要有多久的修炼，多大的包容，多深的人生智慧，才能在那种时刻说出如此令人动容的一句话，每个人都有不想让人所知的不幸事，自己选择了何种方式去面对，又怎么去面对未来以及外围的人及事物呢……?

Suddenly, Gong thought of the shouting expert and turned to him, "Can you have a try?" The man realized it was the chance to show his skill. He shouted to the ferryman as loud as he could, "Hey, ferryman, come here, we want to cross the river." As his voice ended, the ferryman came to fetch them. Gong was very satisfied with the new follower.
Later, people use it to describe anyone who has a special professional skill.
一技之长
战国时期，赵国有位名士叫公孙龙。他手下聚集了许多有自己特长的门客。他常说："一个聪明人应该善于接纳每一个有自己特长的人。"
一天，有一个穿着很破烂的人来见他，并向他推荐自己："我有一项特别的本领。"公孙龙就问道："什么本领?"那个人回答道："我声音特别大，很善于叫喊。"公孙龙听了，就转身问他旁边的门客："你们有谁善于叫喊?"结果没有一个人回答"是"。于是，他就收下了这个很善于叫的人作他的随从。
没过多久，公孙龙和他的门客一起出外游玩。他们来到一条很宽的河边，发现渡船在河的另一头，所有人都不知怎么办好。突然，公孙龙想起他最近收的那个人的本领是善于叫，于是，他就转过头去对那人说："你大声叫对面的船夫，看能不能把他叫过来。"那人觉得展示他技能的时候到了，就尽力大声向对面喊：" 喂，船夫，过来，我们要过河。"当他叫声刚完，那对面的船夫就摇着船过来了。公孙龙对这个新收的门客非常满意。
后来，"一技之长"就用来形容一个人有一项特殊的本领。
Ignorance of the objective world
In the State of Lu, there was a couple of husband and wife, the former being an expert shoemaker and the latter a skilled hand in wearing taffeta. One day after consultations they decided to go to the state of Yue to earn a livelihood. The neighbors advised them not to go when they learned about their plan. "Don't go there," said one neighbor, "If you go, you can never earn a livelihood."
"We cannot understand you," interrogated the couple, "We have a find command of our art, how could we not earn our living with our work? Don't make a fool of us, please."
"Indeed, you have your skill," explained the man, "But have you taken notice of the fact that shoes are made for people and the silk taffeta are for hat-making? The people of Yue don't wear shoes, for they are barefooted. Again, they like to have their hair spread out over their heads and they never use hats. To whom should you sell your shoes and hats then?" Experienced though you are in the arts, yet the arts you have mastered are useless there."
After this explanation, the husband and wife now understood that anything that was not adaptable to the objective world would be useless and unpractical.

I believe there is a person who brings sunshine into your life. That person may have enough to spread around. But if you really have to wait for someone to bring you the sun and give you a good feeling, then you may have to wait a long time.
相信会有一个人把阳光带进你的生活中是可以的。那个人也许会有足够的东西去四处传播。但是,如果你真的要等别人带给你阳光,带给你美好的感受,那你也许要等上很长的时间。
The secret of success (The key to success) is not so much money as a strong will. A great man is one who has a strong will and an indomitable spirit. In other words, if a man does not have a strong will to win (get) the final victory, he will never succeed in his life. He is no more than a failure.
It is quite obvious that there is no difficult thing (nothing difficult) in the world. if you make up your mind to do it, you will certainly accomplish your end. That stands to reason.
成功的要诀不是金钱而是一个坚强的意志。一个大人物是一个具有坚强意志和不屈不挠精神的人。换句话说，如果一个人没有坚强意志去获得最后胜利的人，他终其一生永远不会成功。他只不过是一个失败者。
很显明的世界上并没有难事。如果你下定决心去做它，你一定会达到目的。那是显而易见的。
