The Way to Success
“Give me six hours to chop down a tree , and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.”Abraham Lincoln once said. Although four hours seem to be quite a long time, it can help people chop down the tree more smoothly and less laboriously in the rest two hours. It is obvious that a full preparation can enhance the efficiency of trees-chopping.
The saying aims at informing us of the significance of adequate preparation. Definitely , we can’t emphasize the importance of full preparation too much in our pursuit of success. A full preparation enables us to achieve our objectives and realize our dreams more smoothly and rapidly. The more preparation we make, the more likely we are to become confidence, reduce the risks of failure and seize the fleeting opportunities. For example, when graduates hunt for jobs, it is those who are well prepared that can surpass other candidates and get the offer finally.
Accordingly, at no time should we overlook the power of preparation. Besides, we need to set up a proper goal, carry out a full investigation and elaborate a detailed plan before we take actions. “Preparation breeds success.” Benjamin Franklin also once said. (200 words)
參考譯文：
“給我留個(gè)小時(shí)砍掉一棵樹，那么我會(huì)花前面的四個(gè)小時(shí)來磨斧子。”亞伯拉罕.林肯曾經(jīng)說過。雖然四個(gè)小時(shí)看起來是挺長(zhǎng)的一段時(shí)間，然而它卻可以幫助人們?cè)谑Ｓ嗟膬蓚€(gè)小時(shí)內(nèi)更加順利和省力地砍掉樹木。很明顯，充分的準(zhǔn)備工作可以提高砍樹的效率。
這句話目的在于高速我們充分準(zhǔn)備的重要性。確實(shí)，沒有人可以否認(rèn)充分準(zhǔn)備在我們追求成功過程中的重要性。充分準(zhǔn)備可以使我們更加順利和快速地達(dá)成目標(biāo)、實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想。我們做的準(zhǔn)備越多，我們就更有可能變得自信、減少失敗的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)并且抓住稍縱即逝的機(jī)會(huì)。舉個(gè)例子，當(dāng)畢業(yè)生在找工作的時(shí)候，正是那些做了充分準(zhǔn)備的人才可以超越其他的候選人并且最終贏得工作機(jī)會(huì)。
因此，我們?nèi)魏螘r(shí)候都不能忽略充分準(zhǔn)備的重要性。并且，在我們采取任何行動(dòng)之前，我們都應(yīng)該設(shè)定合適的目標(biāo)，展開充分的調(diào)查并且制定詳細(xì)的計(jì)劃。本杰明.富蘭克林也曾經(jīng)說過：“成功孕育于準(zhǔn)備當(dāng)中。”
