attitude: 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100
What¡¯s the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions hard-work, others suggest knowledge, love and luck.If you arrange the 26 English letters alphabetically (°´×Öĸ±íµÄ˳Ðò) and use numbers to represent each of them, for example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c¡, you can change an English word into a number. So hard-work becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11= 98, meaning 98 is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5=96, while love: 12+15+22+5=54, and luck: 12+21+3+11=47, a small mark. None of these words can give one a full mark. What about money or prayer (Æíµ»)? They can¡¯t, either.
Then what else? Don¡¯t be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, which is your attitude. Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself: attitude: 1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100£¬a full mark!
Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most times people hope for a better life. It is possible that one will have a change for the better after one has changed one¡¯s attitude.
When you change your manner and became friendly towards others, you¡¯ll meet more smiling faces towards you. In the same way, if you take a positive (»ý¼«µØ) attitude towards failure (ʧ°Ü), you¡¯ll find it¡¯s also rewarding (Óлر¨µÄ) though it has caused you losses. (243)
