Refresh yourself from the perspective that so-called "mistakes" do not const

itute failure; they are only new lessons to be learned. Failure is really gi

ving up and quitting, as juxtaposed[3] to persevering and persisting. There

is universal law that states, "Practice precedes excellence." Myth and histo

ry are replete with stories of individuals who had struggled against all odd

s[4] and obstacles and just kept after what they truly wanted until they rea

ched their goals triumphantly.

Naturally, we all have our limitations, and prudence dictates that we respec

t them. However, wisdom encourages us to stretch beyond and transcend our li

mitations. Once we stop growing, our end is near.

注释：

[1]Potential:

Every seed is a potential plant. 每一粒种子都可能长成植物。世界上充满了各种可

能性，所以我们也要重视自己的potential潜在力，尽量能够develop one's potential

发挥潜力。

[2]Cop out:

cop out 是一个含有贬义的俚语，意思是逃避、推诿、临阵退缩。对那些总是用太忙来

推脱应尽责任的人，你就应该说：You've got to do it. Don't try to cop out of i

t by telling me you're too busy!

[3]Juxtapose:

juxta常用于复合词中，表示"接近的，近傍的"，所以juxtapose的意思就是"并排，并置

"，在这里，表示persevering 和 persisting与前面两个词giving up和quitting在意义
