4、       You’ve heard the saying: if you don’t know where you’re going, how will you know when you get there. Thousands of successful people attribute most of their success to goal setting. Knowing this, why don’t the majority of people set goals?

Goal setting starts within you. You have to believe it’s possible to do a thing before you will have a strong desire to write it down on paper and take steps to make it happen.

How do you possibly bring yourself to believe in your own success? After all, so many of you have been at this success thing for a while and it still hasn’t happened to you. Companies that you believed in and worked hard for having failed, your family and friends are waiting for you to “be realistic”, and life just keeps giving you one blow after another. But there is a small fire burning inside of you. You keep at it because all you know is you can’t continue to get up every morning, go to work for someone else and allow them to determine how much you’re worth each week which is far below your true value.

So where do you go from here? Where do you start today? The road to inner belief in your success begins with you telling yourself every day, throughout the day, that you can do what you set out to do, you can have what you set out to get, and you can be that successful person you know that lives inside you. Yes, obstacles will come, doubters will be around, but don’t you be one of them.

Treat yourself like the person you love and care about most. If you had children who had a paper route and they wanted to accomplish a goal but they kept running into obstacles, what would happen? They would soon become discouraged with so many people telling them no. I’m not interested in what you have to offer. What would you say to your child? I’m sure it won’t be the same thing you’ve been saying to yourself. Turn your words around. Speak those same words of encouragement you would speak to your discouraged child, to yourself, If you would never put a loved one down, especially when they are feeling discouraged why would you do that to yourself? You have the power within to stop it right now and turn it around.

Be committed（表示出明確意圖的）from this point forward, to speak words of encouragement to yourself. The mind is an amazing thing. You can convince yourself of anything over time. If you repeatedly tell yourself every day, throughout the day, how successful you are, how capable you are, you will not only start to believe it, you will start to live it.

3、LAST week's decision by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) to strip Pluto(冥王星) of its planetary status, held since its discovery in 1930, has saddened those with a strong love of it.

"I was taught that 'the Nine Great Planets' formed our solar system since primary school. And now they suddenly decrease the planets to eight. This will take some time for most of us to absorb it," says Liu.

Ordinary people simply feel nostalgic(懷舊), but for some professionals, especially planetarium (天文館)curators(博物館館長(zhǎng))and educators, the change has become a real headache.

The "eight instead of nine" change will affect thousands of planetariums around the world. Schools will also be greatly affected.

In China, teachers are anxious as outdated textbooks are printed and released to the remotest corner of the country for schoolchildren ready to start a new term soon.

According to the Ministry of Education, new textbooks with modified(修正的) contents will not be available until next year.

Zhao Zhiheng, a member of the Astronomy Association from Tianjin, suggested that primary and middle school teachers be trained in the revised knowledge, and that the media carry more stories to let people know about the change as soon as possible.
