nothing succeeds without a strong will
there is a prevalent joke around young people saying that ‘quitting smoking is the easiest thing in the world, and i’ve done it for hundreds of times.’ this seemingly funny statement ironically reflects the fact that the determination of most youngsters is oftentimes started with enthusiasm, but the passion becomes increasingly weaker each day, and then diminishes as if there has been no such thing at all.
it is obvious that their failure in ‘quitting smoking’ and decline of determination are all ascribed to their lack of will. initially, every success involves several stages of setbacks and risks, and we need to summon up our will to conquer them. moreover, there are enormous temptation in our path of pursuit of success. for instance, when we plan to quit smoking, our roommates may smoke freely in front of us; when we are eager to keep fit, our close friends may invite us to have late night snacks. under these occasions, only strong will can assist us to resist the temptation, and persist in chasing our goals until we triumphantly realize them.
in short, no dream will successfully come true if we do not have strong will. an old famous proverb says that ‘ where there is a will, there is a way’. let us bear this motton in mind no matter how many thunders and thorns are on our roads ahead, then we will be successful with such precious and powerful spirit.
