找了篇励志短文作为自己未来半年努力的小小精神动力，顺便翻译成中文，文章很简单，希望不要见笑！
Success is not easy to talk about because the word success itself has hundreds of definitions. For some it means power, for some it means wealth, for others it is fame or great achievements. But I have my own understanding of it.
成功并不容易谈论，因为这个词语本身就有许多种定义。对有些人意味着能力，对有些人意味着财富，对另外一些人它意味着名声或者伟大的成就。但是我有我自己的认识。
Success means to try your best.
Many people believe that success means to win. In my opinion, it means to try your best when you do everything, no matter you will win or not. When you are taking part in a long distance race, if you keep on running as fast as you can, you are successful, although you may be the last to pass the finishing line. Because you have showed your best to others, and you have made your greatest effort to be the winner.
成功意味着竭尽全力
许多人认为成功意味着赢。在我看来，它意味着做任何事都竭尽全力，无任你是否获胜。当你在参加长跑比赛时，如果你尽自己最大努力保持最快速度，你就是成功的，虽然你可能是最后一个到达终点。因为你已经竭尽全力，你已经尽自己最大的努力去获胜。
Success means to work hard.
No one can succeed without any hard work. Karl Max was successful, because he spent more than 30 years writing the book "Communist Manifesto"; Tomas Edison succeeded, because he had experimented thousands of times to find the best material for lights. Every success calls for hard work. If you want to succeed, work hard first.
成功意味着努力
没有人能不努力就成功。卡尔-马克思是成功的，那是因为他花费了超过30年写《共产主义宣言》；托马斯-爱迪生成功了，那是因为他实验了上千次才找到最好的灯泡材料。所有的成功都需要努力的工作。如果你想成功，首先努力工作。
Success means not to lose heart.
No one can always be the winner. You will certainly lose or fail some day. It is important for you not to lose heart. A person who has lost heart is just like a tree without roots. It will be easily blown down by the wind. Nobel had failed many times when he was doing his experiments. Sometimes his lab was on fire and he was nearly killed. But he never lost heart and kept on trying. Finally he invented a new explosive. So when you fail or meet any difficulty, just believe in yourself, stand up and give the difficulty a heavy strike.
成功意味着不要丧失信心
没有人能一直胜利，你当然会面临失败，重要的是不要丧失信心。一个人丧失了信心就像一棵树没有了根，风一吹就倒。诺贝尔做实验时失败了许多次，有时候他的实验室着火了，他自己也差点丧命，但是他从来没有丧失信心并继续下去，最后他终于发明了新炸药。所以当你失败了或者面对困难的时候，只需要相信自己，站起来给困难有力一击！
