How many difficulties have you come across so far in your life? How did you overcome them? Giving up, evading responsibility or standing still like a fool and feeling depressed?
In 1948, President Churchill was once invited to the University of Oxford to give a speech. The topic is “The way to success”. Students, professors, media were packed in the hall, silently expectantly waiting for his arrival. The short old man arrived, and walked briskly amidst the audiences’ applause. He got on the stage, and, after alight cough, shared his valuable experience, ‘Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never–in nothing, great or small, large or petty–never give in, except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.’ He finished and walked down from the platform and left the hall. Moments of silence reigned, rapturous applause followed.
True, from this 30 second long speech, the way to success is well clarified. Get over the obstacles and never give in. And you will see the flag of success right in front of you.

人生中，我們往往會遇到逆境。我們會灰心，會放棄，會逃避，手足無措，失落沮喪。究竟我們應該怎樣才能克服困難，抵達成功的終點？
1948年，邱吉爾總統應邀在牛津大學作演講，主題為「成功的秘訣」，面對充滿期待的莘莘學子和全世界各大新聞媒體，邱吉爾作了一個簡短的演辭：「我的成功秘訣有三個：第一，是決不放棄；第二，是決不、决不放棄；第三，是决不、决不、决不能放棄！事無大小，永不放棄。除非擁有榮譽或堅定良好的信念，決不屈服於武力，決不屈服於敵人壓倒性的強權下。」邱吉爾話語聲一落下，便從往大門離開。會場一片凝重，聽眾沉寂了足足一分鐘後，才對着人去樓空的講台，爆發出如雷般的掌聲。
成功就是這麼簡單，真正輸的只會是那些徹底放棄的人。人生在世，只要不放棄，一堵一堵的高牆總會被跨越。總有一天，你將會達到成功的終點。
