Sometimes your biggest weakness can become your biggest strength. A 10-year-old boy decided to study judo (柔道) though he had lost his left arm in a serious car accident. The boy began his lessons with an old Japanese judo master. The boy was doing well, so he couldn’t understand why, after three months of training, the master had taught him only one move.

“Sensei (老师),” the boy finally said, “shouldn’t I be learning more moves?” “This is the only move you know, and this is the only move you’ll ever need to know,” the sensei replied. Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher, the boy kept training. Several months later, the sensei took the boy to his first competition. Surprising himself, the boy easily won

his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent (对手) became impatient. The boy skillfully used his one move to win the match. Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the finals.

This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. For a while, the boy 　 appeared to be overmatched. Thinking that the boy might get hurt, the referee (裁判) called a timeout. He was about to stop the match when the sensei said to him, “No, let him continue.”

Soon after the match restarted, his opponent made a big mistake. The boy won! He was the champion. On the way home the boy gathered the courage to ask what was really on his mind. “Sensei, how could I win the competition with only one move?” “You won for two reasons,” the sensei answered. “First, you’ve almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. Second, the only known defense (防御) for that move is for your opponent to catch your left arm.”

The boy’s biggest weakness had become his biggest strength.

If you do not use your arms or legs for a long time, they become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. But many people do not know that memory works in the same way.

When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it a chance to become strong.
