Why should not give up your dreams
坚持梦想的理由
Failure.
失败
This word seems counter-intuitive in reasons not to give up your dreams, but failure is more beneficial than you might think. Most people don’t pursue their dreams for fear of failure. Little do they know, this is one of the biggest ways we learnand grow!
失败，把这个词当做不要放弃梦想的理由似乎有悖直觉，但是失败比你想象的要有用。大部分人都因为害怕失败而放弃追求梦想。殊不知，这是我们学习和成长的最好的一个途径!
Many famous and successful Americans had to fail over and over again toachieve what they hoped to in life. Abraham Lincoln failed at war, as a businessman, as a lawyer and even at politics at first. He pushed on through and became president of the United States.
美国有很多著名的成功人士在追求他们想要的生活时都经历了一次又一次的失败。亚伯拉罕·林肯打战失败过，做商人时失败过，做律师时失败过，就连做政客时刚开始也失败过。他继续努力才成为美国总统。
Thomas Edison's teachers called him “stupid” and he was fired multipletimes before “failing” 1000 times attempting to invent the lightbulb. MichaelJordan was once cut from his high school basketball team. He later said,
托马斯·爱迪生的老师曾说爱迪生“愚蠢”，他在发明电灯泡前失败了1000多次，在此之前，还被解雇了很多次。迈克尔·乔丹曾一度被高中篮球队除名。后来他说，
"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games 26 times I've been trusted to take thegame winning shot …and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. That is why I succeed."
“在我的职业生涯中，我有9000多个投球没有投中。我输的比赛几乎有300场。有26次，大家相信我能投入致胜的一球…..但是我没能。在我的生活中，我一次又一次地失败。这就是为什么我现在成功了。”

如果说我们能从这些成功人士身上学到些什么的话，那就是不要因为害怕失败而放弃梦想。
