新东方摘取梦想的启明星 25 Don't just stand there

　　You reap what you sow.

　　You just don"t sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone (unless it contributes to your success), and get your mind and body to work!

　　If your life is not meant the way you want it to be, don"t just say: "Our time will come." or "Things will get better some day."

　　Don"t expect your luck to change, unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don"t just regard it as a temporary setback; but use it as feedback. Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to resolve the problem.

　　It"s not enough to think positive; you also have to act positive.

　　If someone"s life is in trouble, do you just hope and pray that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You got to do anything you can to save the person.

　　So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best.

　　In other words, don"t just stand or sit there, do something to improve your life.
