27、r and sister. My father was very ill at the time, and my mother took in sewing of any kind so we could live.

28、ew until the early hours of morning.Things were very bad that particular winter. Then a letter came from where her sewing machine was purchased, stating that they would have to pick up her machine the next day unless payments were brought up to date. I remember when she read the letter I became frig

29、htened; I could picture us starving to death and all sorts of things that could come to a childs mind. My mother did not appear to be worried, however, and seemed to be quite calm about the matter. I, on the other hand, cried myself to sleep, wondering what would become of our family. Mother said Go

30、d would not fail her, that he never had. I couldnt see how God was going to help us keep this old sewing machine. The day the men were to come for our only means of support, there was a knock at the kitchen door. I was frightened as a child would be, for I was sure it was those dreaded men. Instead,

31、 a nicely dressed man stood at our door with a darling baby in his arms.He asked my mother if she was Mrs. Hill.

32、 the hospital this morning, and since we have no relatives here, and I must open my dentist office, I have nowhere to leave my baby. Could you possibly take care of her for a few days?

33、s, yes, I will be glad to do so, and took the baby from his arms. When the man left, Mother turned to me with tears streaming down a face that looked as though a light was shining on it.

36、eaching some of your goals, but not others? If you arent sure, you are far from alone in your confusion. It turns out that even brilliant, highly accomplished people are pretty lousy when it comes to understanding why they succeed or fail. The intuitive answer that you are born predisposed to certai

37、n talents and lacking in others is really just one small piece of the puzzle. In fact, decades of research on achievement suggests that successful people reach their goals not simply because of who they are, but more often because of what they do. 361. Get specific. When you set yourself a goal, try

38、 to be as specific as possible. Lose 5 pounds is a better goal than lose some weight, because it gives you a clear idea of what success looks like.37 Also, think about the specific actions that need to be taken to reach your goal.2. 38. Given how busy most of us are, and how many goals we are juggli

39、ng at once, its not surprising that we routinely miss opportunities to act on a goal because we simply fail to notice them. Did you really have no time to work out today?
