天才一秒记住【畅想小说网】地址:http://www.cxtra.net
我并不刻意去争功得利,但我每天都在为之努力。
不管我怎么做,总会有人希望我倒下,他们说:“卡尔·马龙不行。”
我非但没有被这些人击垮,他们反而给了我动力,我继续在每一天里证明给他们看:他们是错误的。
无论在场上还是场下,我都会用一种积极的方式,尽力让自己发挥出好的水平。
我明白,无论我如何应对,总有其他人在走下坡路,而我还在这里。
我知道,如果没有不断的努力,我也不会再次站在这里。
对于作为一名篮球明星所享受的生活,我充满了感激。
当我看到这些写着“篮球就是生命”
的T恤衫时,我想那是对的,的确是这样!
但篮球不等同于生命,尽管它激动人心。
然而,关于篮球运动,我觉得重要的是在我所谓的这段生命旅程中,它指给我一条为他人做好事的道路。
成功真可谓是去其糟粕,取其精华。
多为你所在的世界做出积极的贡献,珍惜真正重要的东西,比如家人和朋友等。
别人都把著名运动员、演员或音乐家作为崇拜的偶像,而妈妈是我的偶像。
这么多年以来她都是,以后也会是我灵感的来源。
母亲教导我说,努力工作是不会累死人的。
母亲是我心目中的英雄,她、家庭和朋友带给我最多欢乐,这是生活中其他任何东西都无法比拟的。
当我的生命即将结束时,我不希望给人们留下这样的记忆:一屁股坐在那儿,对别人说:“我成功了。”
我也不想说,对自己拥有的一切我都没有付出最大努力。
的确,有些时候我也不想努力工作。
不管怎样,我还是去做了,因为那才是真正的我。
