“Buy-A-Something” Campaign

One way to request for general donations is to tie it into a campaign like “Buy-A-Brick to Help Build a School in Bolivia”.  Make sure you have some literature to give people as well as a registration form(登记表) that includes name, address, and how many bricks the person purchased.

University Funds

If you are a student, one major source of funding is your own college or university. Many school clubs can raise a certain amount of funds through student activities. See if your club is suitable.

Letter Writing

One of the most effective ways of raising money is to do a letter campaign to as many relatives, friends, former teachers, etc. as possible. Sending a detailed letter to over 100 friends and relatives explaining the program and what you hope to accomplish while you’re on it will help you reach your goal.

Parties, Dances, Music

Use the “Who Do You Know” principle. Do you have a friend in a band? Do you know the owner of a bar or restaurant? Some simple events include playing in a band at a club, and your group gets the cover charge or a percentage of the drink sales.

Exhibitions

This is limited to people with professional art genius. If you are an artist, you can ask friends to help you hold exhibitions and donate your profit to charity or give people who need financial help.

Note: Please remember there are some people who are not so lucky as we are and it’s our duty to help them.

Easy Ways to Get Over Your Laziness

Laziness appears for very specific reasons. Maybe we don’t know how to do the task. 1.. Maybe we are just plain scared and our mindset needs adjustment. Whatever the cause, if laziness is interfering with your productivity, you must learn to overcome it. Here are several ways to overcome your laziness so you can reach your goals.

Make sure you’re not overwhelmed(不堪重负的).

Sometimes we freeze up when we’re overwhelmed by everything we have to do--we freeze up and don’t do anything at all. 2.. If you have too much on your plate and no idea how you’re going to get it all done, it may be that you’re not lazy but overwhelmed.

Check your motivation.

Similarly, if you’re not motivated it is very easy to slip into what looks like laziness. 3.. If it’s hard for you to stay connected to what motivates you, make up a list that you can consult when you need an extra push.

4..

Your environment and the people around you matter. Are you in a space that makes it easy to stay organized and productive? Do the people around you spend more time complaining than following their passions? If you surround yourself with people who love what they do, and are creative and motivated, their enthusiasm will rub off on you. Make sure that your space gives you everything you need to work well.

Value your time.

5.. Look at your to-do list and prioritize（优先）—you can do it in your head, on paper, or on a computer or phone-based planner. Just knowing where you are makes it harder for deadlines to sneak up on you and easier to work productively, even if it’s in short bursts.

A.Look at your surroundings.

B.To be productive we need to be motivated.

C.Make the most of the time you spend working.

D.So select just one thing at a time, do it, and ignore the rest.

E.Maybe we feel overwhelmed by everything we have to do.

F.We may procrastinate（拖延）because we are not sure what to do next.

G.Do you have realistic expectations on how much you are truly able to accomplish?

There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process．People have generally viewed personal growth as an external（外部的） result or product that can easily be identified and measured．The worker who gets a promotion, the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language--- all these are examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts．

By contrast, the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since by definition it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way．The process is not the road itself, but rather the attitudes and feelings people have, their caution or courage, as they go through new experiences and unexpected obstacles．In this process, the journey never really ends; there are always new ways to experience the world, new ideas to try, new challenges to accept．

In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to be faced with the unknown, and to accept the possibility that they may “fail” at first．How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is essential to our ability to grow．

These feelings of insecurity and self – doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow．If we do not face and overcome these internal fears and doubts, if we protect ourselves too much, then we cease to grow．We become trapped inside a shell of our own making．

1.A person is generally believed to achieve personal growth when______．．

A．he has given up his smoking habit

B．he has made great efforts in his work

C．he is interested in making anything new

D．he has tried to determine where he is on his journey

2.In the author’s eyes, one who views personal growth as a process would______．

A．judge his ability to grow from his own achievements

B．succeed in climbing up the social ladder

C．face difficulties and take up challenges

D．aim high and reach his goal each time

3.When the author says “a new way of being” （para．3）, he is referring to _____．

A．a new way of taking risks

B．a new approach to experiencing the world

C．a new system of adapting to change

D．a new method of finding ourselves

4.For personal growth, the author may not support __________．     ．

A．curiosity and more chances

B．being quick in self – adaptation

C．open – minded to new experiences

D．avoidance of internal fears and doubts
