20、witter. Even though Paris did receive negative comments from people saying she was promoting obesity, she chose to focus on the support because hate is nothing compared to love.

24、utside for a walk. They bark when they see other dogs. They bark when they chase other animals, such as cats and squirrels.Now, imagine that a dog chases a squirrel up a tree.

I am wrong about the reason for something or possibly the way to get something.Now, let me tell you about a
27、 person who used the wrong way to get something. A friend of mine, Sharon, needed money for her new business idea. So, she went to an event to meet potential investors.

She mentioned everybody from Elon Musk to Jack Ma as examples of successful people who could be potential sources of inspiration. In response, I simply said, I dont look up to any of them. This
32、led my employee to ask me why, and I answered, I dont know them well.Too often, we put people on a pedestal(基础)without knowing the details of who they are and what theyve done.

So when I think about the people who do that for me, its not Elon Musk. I dont know how Musk is with the people who he works
