你必须用手中的牌玩下去

艾森豪威尔年轻的时候，有一次和家人玩牌，他连续几次都拿到很糟糕的牌，情绪非常不好，态度也开始恶劣起来。她母亲见状说了段令他刻骨铭心的话：“你必须用你手中的牌玩下去，就好比人生，发牌的是上帝，不管是怎样的牌，你都必须拿著，你所做的就是尽你全力，求得最好的结果。”

没有人或事物可以阻挡具有正确心态的人达成他的目标. 没有人或事物可以帮助拥有错误心态的人.

Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude. 
        -- Thomas Jefferson

[CD note]: Too many times we complain about things or people around us for our poor performance and failure. In a recent research, when asked "what is the most regretful thing in your life?", over 70% of the  senior people answered that they didn't work hard enough to achieve their goals when they were young. Why do you have to wait until the end of your life to realize it's all about you? Opportunity doesn't come free. We'll have to earn it. In the wake of the seniors' regret, I'll work harder tomorrow, regardless what hits me down the road.
