How to Be a Winner

Sir Steven Redgrave

Winner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals

“In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes(糖尿病)．Believing my career(职业生涯)was over，I felt extremely low.Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing.That was it—the encouragement I needed.I could still be a winner if I believed in myself.I am not saying that it isn''t difficult sometimes.But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn''t finished yet.Nothing is to stand in my way.” Karen Pickering

Swimming World Champion

“I swim 4 hours a day,6 days a week.I manage that sort of workload by putting it on top of my diary.This is the key to success—you can''t follow a career in any field without being well-organized.List what you believe you can achieve.Trust yourself，write down your goals for the day，however small they are，and you''ll be a step closer to achieving them.”

Kirsten Best

Poet&Writer

“When things are getting hard，a voice inside my head tells me that I can''t achieve something.Then，there are other distractions，such as family or hobbies.The key is to concentrate.When I feel tense，it helps a lot to repeat words such as ‘calm’，‘peace’ or ‘focus’，either out loud or silently in my mind.It makes me feel more in control and increases my confidence.This is a habit that can become second nature quite easily and is a powerful psychological(心理的)tool.”
