He’d say, “If you pour water on flowers, they flourish. If you don’t give them water, they die.” I 19 as a child I said something 20 about somebody, and my father said, “ 21 time you say something unpleasant about somebody else, it’s a reflection of you.” He explained that if I looked for the best 22 people, I would get the best 23 . From then on I’ve always tried to 24 the principle in my life and later in running my company.

When I was a boy, every holiday that I had seemed wonderful. Myparents took me by train or by car to a hotel by the 26 . All day, I seem to remember, Iplayedon the sands with strange 27 children. We made houses and gardens, and 28 the tide destroy them. When the tide went out, weclimbedover the rocks and looked down at the fish in the rock-pools.
In those days thesun seemed to shine always 29 and the water was always warm. Sometimes weleft beach and walked in the country, 30 ruined houses and dark woods and climbing trees. There weresweets in one’s pockets or good places where one could 31 ice creams. Each day seemed a life-time.
32 I am now thirty-five years old, my idea of a goodholiday is much the same as it was. I 33 like the sun and warm sand and the sound of 34 beating (拍打) the rocks. I no longer wish to 35 any sand house or sand garden, and I dislike sweets.36 , I still love the sea and often feel sand running through my fingers.
Sometimes I37 what my ideal(理想的) holiday will be like when I amold. 38 I want to do then, perhaps, will be to lie in bed, reading books about39 who make houses and gardens with sands, who watch the incoming tide, who make themselves40 on too many ices creams.

When I was a teenager I volunteered to work at the water station at a 10,000m race. My job was to 34 water to the runners. I remember being so35 to see all the different kinds of people who passed by and grabbed a cup of water. Some ran past, some walked past and a few wheeled past. I saw so many types of people doing it. I thought maybe I could do it too! So the next year I 36 up for the race.
That first 10,000m race was quite an experience. I jogged, I walked, I jogged and I walked37, I didn’t know if I could finish. Then came a defining (决定性)38 .
At one point near the end, a 70-year-old man ran past me, very, very fast, and I felt39 because I was 50 years younger than he but I couldn’t even keep up with him. I felt40 for a second.
But then I realizedsomething. He was running his race and I was running mine. He had41 abilities, experience, training and goals for himself. I had mine. Remember my42 was only to finish.
After a minute, it43 me that this was a lesson I could draw from. I learned something about myself in that moment. I turned my embarrassment into 44.
I decidedthat I would not give up on running races. In fact, I would run even more races and I would learn how to train and prepare 45 and one day I would be one of those 70-year-old persons who were still running. As I crossed the finish line, I was proud of my accomplishment. In life we all have those moments where we46 ourselves to others. It’s only natural . Don’t allow those moments to 47 you. Turn them into motivation and let them inspire you. With the proper preparation and training, you can improve your result to 48anything you want in life.
