If I have to choose three critical factors in achieving success in my career, these would be my choices—belief, action and discipline.

Belief

In order to achieve success in your career, you have to first believe. You need to believe that you can achieve it. You need to have faith in your goals and your path to success. Once your mind is convinced that you can do it, everything is possible. Belief is the “mind and heart” part of the three critical success factors.

Action

Nothing moves until you do something. Believing alone is not going to achieve anything. It must be followed up with concrete action. Your plan for career success is nothing unless you act upon it wholeheartedly. When you act upon what you believe, there is focus. And there is energy. That energy propels (drive forward) you to greater heights. Action is the “hands and legs” part of the three critical success factors.

Discipline（自制力）

Action in itself is not enough to increase the chances of success. But disciplined action would do that. One of the main reasons why people fail is that there is no discipline in their action. They give themselves excuses when they cannot consistently go ahead with their plans. You need some form of sacrifice（牺牲）if you want to achieve success in your career. That sacrifice takes discipline. Discipline also ensures that you can be persistent（坚持的）, especially when you’re faced with challenges after challenges in your journey to success. Discipline is the “untiring, determined hands and legs” part of the three critical success factors.

When what you think, feel and do become one, there is nothing that can stop you from achieving career success

The idea that I would be rewarded if I worked hard enough was deeply rooted in me.So I spent long hours in the lab,steadily filled pages in my notebook,and was praised for my hard work.When my experiments didn’t produce the exciting results they were expected to,I thought I just needed to work more.1.I didn’t know what to do.It was late in the evening.One other person was still in the lab:A postdoc(博士后),who noticed my situation,came over and gently asked how I was doing I told him about my struggles with the experiment and that I felt like a failure. 2.After we talked through the experiment,the postdoc said,”I think it's time to go home and get some sleep”He added with a smile,”Taking a break is also hard work,you know?”

Those comments planted the seed of a new approach:novel ideas do not come from a mind constantly under pressure.My best ideas and”aha”moments almost always come after I allow my mind to relax-whether that’s playing video games with my brother,cooking a nice dinner,or going on long hikes with my wife.3.

Today,a decade after that eye-opening evening in the lab.I try to pass this mindset on to my own students.Not too long ago in the lab one night,I walked by one of my students.I gently asked how she was doing.With a defeated look,she responded that the plan for the experiment refused to work,again,despite many attempts.I couldn’t help but see myself all those years ago.4.I asked her why we do what we do.Often it comes down to pursuing curiosity and passion.

How can we foster that spirit? 5.Work-life balance is not a harmful thing to excellent research,or an optional bonus,but a fundamental pan of it.

A.So I worked even harder,ignoring the result.

B.Part of working smarter,I realized,call be taking a break.

C.The answer does not include working ourselves to exhaustion.

D.By striking a balance between working hard and getting some sleep.

E.I didn’t tell him that I was also wondering what was wrong with me.

F.Yet here I was,working harder than ever-but not getting anywhere.

G.We talked for a while about academic life and what it means to be a researcher.

If you were given a chance to choose your favorite life metaphor(比喻), what would it be? Do you agree with Forrest Gump’s mother that life is “a box of chocolates” because “you never know what you’re going to get”? Or do you prefer the phrase from the 1930’s song that “life is just a bowl of cherries(樱桃)”? Though simply stated, each conveys a very different view. A “box” implies mystery, because we don’t know what is in a closed box. Meanwhile, a “bowl” of cherries is completely in view.

For many centuries, the metaphor of life that probably burst into most people’s mind was the one suggested by Shakespeare: “All of life is a stage…” On that stage, we take seven roles. More recently, psychologist Erik Erikson took up the idea of life as a stage. Erikson regarded development as a “powerful unfolding” in which we are driven from one stage to the next as our bodies, minds, and social roles develop.

Stage metaphors fit with many of our common-sense ideas about change, but the problem with the stage metaphor is that it isn’t particularly accurate. None of the studies that try to clarify the universality of adult life stages actually studied people as they developed over time. All of them were based on performances of their samples(样本) at one point in time. People’s actual lives don’t fit into these stage metaphors. They don’t automatically transform when people reach a certain age. Instead, people’s real lives are messy, unpredictable, and full of surprises.

Today, I’d like to focus on an even longer study, an 80-year study which is the subject of a recent book by Howard Friedman and Leslie Martin. Their final chapter summarizes the “many changes of healthy and unhealthy pathways” that their participants took over the course of their lives. As I too discovered in my research, the pathway provides a perfect metaphor of human development. We don’t all go down the same road marked with the same signposts based on age. People travel through diverse routes as they track the years of adulthood. Friedman and Martin use health and long life as their measure; I’ve used sense of achievement. In both cases, we are in perfect agreement in evaluating development not according to age but “the key features of life”.

The paths that Friedman and Martin describe seize the changes that characterize people as they age. Some examples are “The High Road” (reliable, full of plans); “Not Easy Street” (exposed to high stress throughout life), “Catastrophe Lane” (a downwardly twisty life); “Happy Trails to You” (cheerful, sociable), “The Road to Resilience” (able to handle stress with a strong will). Though I haven’t yet been able to follow my participants for 80 years, I too saw some of these pathways among my samples: “The Minding Way” , “The Downward Slope” , “The Straight and Narrow Path” , and “The Successful Trail”.

The pathway metaphor gives you hope for changing the direction of your life if you are unhappy with it so far. You can’t stop the clock from ticking the minutes between one birthday and the next, but you can adjust the road that you’re on by changing yourself, your situation, or both.

A. making comparisons B. giving examples

C. describing scenes　　 D. providing explanations

2.According to the passage, the “stage metaphor” ______.

A. leads to misunderstandings

4.When a person is facing difficulties bravely, which metaphor can best describe him?

A. “Not Easy Street” B. “Happy Trails to You”

C. “Catastrophe Lane” D. “The Road to Resilience”

Do you have a job? If you do, you’ll know the world of work can be tough-long hours, boring tasks and stress. But it can bring benefits too, such as a regular salary. Maybe that's why more of us are now taking on a side hustle — another name for a second job.

For some having two jobs is a necessity — a way to make ends meet and provide extra income. But it now seems that more people want to put their skills and passions into practice to make money. These tend to be entrepreneurial young people who want to work on their own projects alongside their main source of income.

According to Henley Business School, around one in four workers run at least one side hustle business, half of which were started in the past two years. Those aged 25 to 34 are most likely to be involved, with 37 percent thought to run a sideline of some kind. It calculates that the average side hustler makes about 20 percent of their income through their second job.

But what's interesting is that many millennials （千禧一代）are turning their hand to new jobs not just for money and security. Research has found that almost three-quarters of people are following a passion or exploring a new challenge. Becci Mai Ford, who works some of the time for a telecommunications company to pay the bills, spends the rest of her time developing her craft company. She says going full-time is "not financially worth it right now but it fuels my creative soul and makes me happy".

Of course having a side hustle means you are self-employed, which can give you flexibility to work when you like, but it can be risky. You sometime work on a zero-hours contract and may not get offered enough work. Or what was originally your passion may become more of a chore. However; this could be the best way to try out a new career or follow a passion while not giving up the day job.

1.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the reason for people to take on a side hustle?

A.To make money. B.To obtain job satisfaction.

C.To have the flexibility to work. D.To enjoy a risky lifestyle.

2.The author explains the study from Henley Business School by 　　　　 .

A.describing the process B.making a comparison

C.presenting research findings D.analyzing cause and effect

3.What is the author's attitude towards having a second job?

A.Critical. B.Indifferent.

C.Neutral. D.Favorable.
