21、udy, more than 400 students were asked to finish a set of 20 word puzzles. Halfway through the task, the students were divided into three groups. One group was allowed to take a break and use cellphones to buy things online. The second group was asked to have a rest and buy things using a computer.

29、ep their cellphones out of sight.CShould we focus on our goal, or on the process?What happened to Brenda Martinez, a US Olympic runner, may provide us with the answer.

She said it was this mindset that l
31、ed to her winning third place in the 1500-meter race about a week later to qualify for the Olympics in Rio.

36、m goals to process will cause you to achieve little victories on your way to accomplishing long-term goals.
