17、at job,” her husband told her.“Oh,I will,” she said.“But not yet.I have too many friends there for me to leave.”And so she remained unhappy at work until the years became decades and her children had children.“Leave that job,” her grandchildren told her.“Oh,I will,”she said.“But not yet.There are on
18、ly seven more years until I reach thirty years of service and can retire.So I cant just yet.”I know this woman.And her story reminds me of an old dog half asleep on a porch of a general store,moaning and groaning in the sun.“Why is your dog acting that way?” a customer asked the store owner.“Oh,” an
19、swered the man,“Hes lying on a nail.” “Well,why doesnt he move?”“Because its not hurting him bad enough.”Thats true for people,too.We convince ourselves the pain is not bad enough to leave the workplace we know.But were wrong. Prolonged work pain is continuing. Some work pain damages our selfesteem,
20、kills our passion or destroys our dreams.Wilbur Wright once commented,“We could hardly wait to get up in the morning.I know that exhilarating feeling of being so passionate about something I was working on that I couldnt wait to get back to work.And people who are winning at working know that kind o

It was very im
25、portant that her house should remain at all times clean and tidy. You could turn your back for a moment in my mothers house, leave a half-written letter on the dining room table, a magazine open on the chair, and turn around to find that my mother had put it back where it belonged, as she explained.
26、 My wife, on one of her first visits to my mothers house, placed a packet of biscuits on an end table and went to the kitchen to fetch a drink. When she returned, she found the packet had been removed. Confused, she set down her drink and went back to the kitchen for more biscuits, only to return to
27、 find that her drink had disappeared. Up to then she had guessed that everyone in my family held onto their drinks, so as not to make water rings on the end tables. Now she knows better. These disappearances had a confusing effect on our family. We were all inclined to( 有的倾向)forgetfulness. And it wa
28、s common for one of us, upon returning from the bathroom, to find that every sign of her work in progress had disappeared suddenly. “Do you remember what I was doing?” was a question frequently asked , but rarely answered? ;Now my sister has developed a second-hand love of clean windows, and my brot
