If I were a Boy Again
If I were a boy again, I would practice perseverance坚持不懈 more often, and never give up a thing because it was hard or inconvenient不便. If we want light, we must conquer darkness. Perseverance can sometimes equal genius天赋 in its results. “There are only two creatures,” says a proverb, “Who can surmount攻克 the pyramids — the eagle and the snail.”
If I were a boy again, I would school训练 myself into a habit of attention; I would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. I would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once.
The habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough. I often hear grown-up people say, “I could not fix my attention on the sermon布道or book, although I wished to do so”, and the reason is, the habit was not formed in youth.
If I were to live my life over again, I would pay more attention to the cultivation培养 of the memory. I would strengthen that faculty才能 by every possible means, and on every possible occasion. It takes a little hard work at first to remember things accurately; but memory soon helps itself, and gives very little trouble. It only needs early cultivation to become a power.
We too often borrow trouble自找麻烦, and anticipate期望 that may never appear.” The fear of ill exceeds the ill we fear.” Dangers will arise出现 in any career, but presence of mind沉着镇定 will often conquer the worst of them. Be prepared for any fate, and there is no harm to be feared.
If I were a boy again, I would demand of myself more courtesy towards my companions and friends, and indeed towards strangers as well. The smallest courtesies along the rough roads of life are like the little birds that sing to us all winter long, and make that season of ice and snow more endurable.
Finally, instead of trying hard to be happy, as if that were the sole purpose of life, I would, if I were a boy again, I would still try harder to make others happy.
