Answers called out    4   from eight to twenty ounces (盎司)．

She quieted the students down and then replied，“The absolute weight doesn't    5  .But it counts how long you hold it.If I hold it for a minute，it is OK.If I hold it for an hour，I will have an ache in my    6  .If I hold it for a day，my arm will feel numb.In each case，the    7   of the glass of water doesn't change，but the    8   I hold it，the heavier it  becomes.Why？”

Lost in    9  ，all the students kept silent and listened to the professor carefully.

“Our stresses and    10   in life are like that glass of water.If we   11   our burdens all the time，sooner or later，we will feel exhausted，even unable to   12  .”

  13   you have to do is put all your burdens down，as    14   in the evening as possible.Don't carry them through the evening into the night；by doing this，we can get   15   next  morning and are   16   to move forward.

More often than not，life gets terrible when we   17   too much.And the moment you   18   your burdens，you'll find yourself feeling much more relaxed.

There is usually a transition (转折)at some point where we will need to look toward the future.But how do we make a   41   and set ourselves up for success?

I recently brought this   42   to a friend of mine，David，who advises and invests in companies.I asked him how he had moved so   43   between opportunities and always seemed to find success with them.I was expecting some words of   44   that would make it all   45  .What I wasn't expecting was a word from a movie.

He told me about The Gumball Rally，a movie about a group of   46   who take part in a secret cross country race.In one particular   47  ，an Italian participant   48   a car and the first thing he   49   is rip off the rearview mirror (掰断后视镜)．The other man in the car asks，“Why did you do that？” And he   50  ，“What's behind me is not   51  .”

And that was David's   52  .

After further conversation I fully   53   the thought behind Raul Julia in his role as the Italian racer.Raul was in the driver's seat.He was going to   54   the race，against all difficulties，and the only way he was going to do it was by   55   ahead，not behind.Setting ourselves up for success，is to actually focus on the   56   at hand.What's behind us is not important；being   57   is.

So I challenge you to think about your last big win，or even big loss，and be   58   with yourself.Have you allowed yourself to fully seize your next opportunity，or are you still thinking of old memories，old   59  ？ Or，are you focusing all your attention on the now and the   60  ？ Because at some point or another，we all need to drive like the Italian.
