Last week, my granddaughter started kindergarten. As is 36 , I wished her success. I was lying. What I actually wish for her is— 37 . I believe in the power of failure.
Success is 38 . Success is proving that you can do something that you already know you can do, or do something correctly the first time, which can 39 be a problematical victory. First-time success is usually a fluke(侥幸). First-time failure, 40 is expected; it is the natural order of things.
Failure is how we learn. I have been told of an African phrase 41 a good cook as “she who has broken many pots”. If you’ve spent enough time in the 42 to have broken a lot of pots, probably you know a fair amount about 43 . I once had a late dinner with a group of chefs, and they spent time 44 knife wounds and burn scars. They knew how much credibility(信誉)their 45 gave them.
I earn my living by writing a daily newspaper column. Each week I am 46 that one column is going to be the worst column of the week. I don’t set out to write it; I try my best every day. 47 , every week, one column is inferior(较差的)to the others, sometimes extremely so.
I have learned to 48 that column. A successful column usually means that I am treading(踩踏)on 49 ground, going with the tricks that work, or dressing up popular ideas in fancy words. Often in my inferior columns, I am trying to 50 something I’ve never done before, something I’m not even sure can be done.
