面对挑战，请自信地对自己说“我可以”!

I love challenging myself. I like to set a goal that seems difficult or even impossible and then do everything I can to reach that goal. It's not always easy, and sometimes I don't reach the goal -- heck, sometimes I don't come anywhere close to reaching it -- but it's still something that I love to do. Sometimes the challenges I take on are physical, such as running a very long distance, and sometimes they're more mental, such as writing a book. Sometimes they're very abstract, such as trying to deal with my fear of heights or my uneasiness in crowds. But no matter what kind they are, I feel fortunate that I'm able to identify challenges and then take them on.

我喜欢挑战自己，我喜欢设定看似难以完成甚至不可能实现的目标，然后尽一切努力达到这一目标。这件事不总是容易做到，有时我达不到目标——管他呢，有时与目标还相差甚远——但这仍然是我喜欢做的。有时我迎接的挑战是身体方面的，比如说长跑;有时更多的是精神上的，比如说写一本书;有时非常抽象，比如说努力摆脱恐高或人多时的不安。但无论是什么挑战，我都感觉很幸运能够认清挑战，然后迎接挑战。

I actually meet many of them. I've run one hundred miles in 26 hours, I've written a few novels, and I've done some other things that I didn't think I could do at first. Nowadays, though, after taking on so many challenges, I never really feel that something is impossible -- I pretty much know that anything is possible with the right attitude and enough effort. That's not to say that nowadays I meet every challenge successfully, because I don't. I just don't start out by thinking that I can't do it.
