Excellence is not an act，but a habit
Our character、basically和is a composite of our habits。" sow a thought，reap an actionSow an action，reap a habitSow a habit、reap a characterSow a character，reap a destiny，“the maxim goes。
人的品德基本上是由习惯构成的。俗话说，思想决定行动，行动决定习惯，习惯决定品德，品德决定命运。
habits are power ful factors in our lives . because they are consistent、often unconscious patterns、they constantly和daily
习惯对我们的生活有很大影响。因为它们是一致的。不知不觉中，在漫长的岁月里，影响着我们的品德，暴露出我们的本性，左右着我们的成败。
As Horace Mann，the great educator，once said，" habits are like a cable . we weave a strand of it every day and soon it cannot be broken . "I personally do not agree with the last part of his es ion . I know habits can be learned and unlearned . but is also know it isn ' t a quick fix . it involves a
itment.
美国著名教育家曼恩曾说：“习惯就仿佛是一条缆绳，我们每天为他缠上一股新索，不要多久就会变得牢不可破。”这句话的后半段我不敢苟同，我相信习惯可以养成，也可以打破，但绝不是一蹴而就，而是需要长期的努力和无比的毅力。
Those of us who watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11 were transfixed as we saw the first men walk on the moon and return to earth. But to get there, those astronauts literally had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, in the first few miles of travel, than was used over the next several days to travel half a million miles.
宇航员搭乘阿波罗11号太空船，首次登陆月球的刹那，的确令人叹为观止。但宇航员得先摆脱地球强大的引力，才能飞往月球。由此在刚发射的几分钟，也就是整个任务一开始的几英里之内，是最艰难的时刻，所耗的力量往往超越往后的几十万英里。
Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull- more than most people realize or would admit. Breaking deeply imbedded habitual tendencies such as procrastination, impatience, criticalness, or selfishness that violate basic principles of human effectiveness involves more than a little willpower and a few minor changes in our lives. “Lift off” takes a tremendous effort, but once we break out of the gravity pull, our freedom takes on a whole new dimension.
习惯也是一样，它具有极大的引力，只是许多人不加注意或不肯承认了。想要革除因循苟且，缺乏耐心，吹毛求疵或自私自利等不良习性，若是缺乏意志力，不能大刀阔斧的改革，便难以实现目标。“起飞”需要极大的努力，然而一旦脱离重力的牵绊，我们便可享受前所未有的自由。
