Make a little bit of a difference. Do it again and again. 做点改变。一遍又一遍地做。

Know where you desire to go. Proceed in that direction, one small step at a time. 知道你想去哪里。朝那个方向前进，一次一小步。

A sure way to bring on frustration and disappointment is to assume you’re going to change your whole world overnight. A sure way to make progress is to be realistic about your ambitions. 一个肯定会带来沮丧和失望的方法是假设你会在一夜之间改变你的整个世界。取得进步的一个可靠的方法是对你的抱负持现实态度。

You cannot jump instantly to the top of the mountain. Yet you absolutely can follow the winding pathway, climbing a little each day. 你不可能立刻跳到山顶。然而，你绝对可以沿着蜿蜒的小路，每天爬一点。

Do that, and eventually you’ll be marveling at the spectacular view. Perhaps even more significantly, you’ll feel the power of persistence deep within your bones and muscles. 这样做，最终你会在壮观的景色。也许更重要的是，你会感受到骨骼和肌肉深处的坚持力量。

There’s a little bit you can do right now, and a little more tomorrow. Line up those little efforts in a consistent direction, and go precisely where you wish to go. 你现在可以做一点，明天可以做得更多。把这些小小的努力集中在一个一致的方向上，准确地去你想去的地方。
