When I was twelve years old, my father took me to see Zig Ziegler. I remember sitting in the dark hall listening to Mr. Ziegler raise everyone’s spirits up to ceiling. I left there feeling like I could do anything. When we got to the car, I turned to my father and said, “Dad, I want to make people feel like that.” My father asked me what I meant. “I want to be a motivational speaker just like Mr. Ziegler,” I replied. A dream was born.
Recently, I began pursuing(追求) my dream of motivating others. I realized that everything I had accomplished — the graduate degree, the successful sales career, speaking appointments, training and managing for a major fortune 100 company as a senior manager— had prepared me for this moment. I told my boss who was a great leader I would leave the company though I might not reach such a height in career. He told me to proceed(进行) and he believed I would succeed.
Having made that decision, I was immediately tested. One week after I gave notice, my husband was laid off from his job. We had recently bought a new home and needed both incomes to make the monthly mortgage (抵押) payment and now we were done to no income. I even planned to turn back to my former company, knowing they wanted me to stay but I was certain that if I went back, I would never leave. I decided I still wanted to move forward rather than end up with a mouth full of “if onlys” later on. A motivational speaker was born.
When I held fast to my dream, even during the tough times, the miracles(奇迹) really began to happen. In a short time period my husband found a better job. We didn’t miss a mortgage payment. And I was able to book several speaking appointments with new clients (客户). I discovered the incredible power of dreams. I loved my old job, my workmates and the company I left, but it was time to get on with my dream. To celebrate my success I had a local artist paint my new office as a garden. At the top of one wall she marked, “The world always makes way for the dreamer.”

A group of graduates, successful in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about 36 in work and life.
Before offering his guests 37 , the professor went to the kitchen and 38 with a large pot of coffee and a variety of cups -- porcelain(瓷), plastic, glass, crystal, some 39 and cheap, some exquisite(精致的)and 40 -- telling them to help themselves to the coffee.
When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: “If you 41 , all the nice-looking expensive cups were 42 up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is __43 for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the 44 of your problems and stress. Be assured that the cup itself 45 no quality to the coffee. In most cases 46 is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you 47 wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously 48 for the best cups... And then you began eyeing each other’s cups.
Now consider this: 49 is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to 50 life, and the type of cup we have does not define(规定), nor change the 51 of life we live. Sometimes, by 52 only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has offered us.
God brews(酿造)the coffee, not the cups. Enjoy your coffee!
“The 53 people don’t have the best of everything: They just 54 the best of everything.”
Live simply. Love 55 . Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.

Last year, 5.4 percent of the American workforce held second jobs, according to the US Labor Department, and that looks set to increase this year.
Many workers like the safety that moonlighting provides, says Carl Hausman , the writer of “Moonlighting: 148 Great Ways to Make Money to the Side”.
The information from the US Labor Department shows that 40 percent of US moonlighters take a second job to meet household expenses or pay off debts. Others save money or buy some special things.
People also take second jobs with an eye to the future -- wanting to try out a new field or gain experience.
Michel started moonlighting when medical systems were unstable. He wanted to make sure he wasn’t tied to one system that ended up failing.
Just as the purposes for moonlighting vary, the moonlighters cross all ages and racial groups. And they work in a variety of industries -- no longer just service, office and sales jobs.
“Technology just affects your ability to make money,” Hausman says. “That makes a frequent change in moonlighting.”
As its name means, moonlighting still occurs mostly at night. And that results in some pressures. Chief among them is time.
Full-time employers could misunderstand, too. Some companies do not allow after-hour work because they fear it will affect their employees’ 9-to-5 performance.
“The primary employer is saying, ‘Wait, I’m paying you for the sharp, fresh, energetic you,’” says Tom Gimbel, president and founder of LaSalle Staffing in Chicago. “If you’re burning yourself at both ends, it’s going to show.”
Still, the good done to the moonlighters can be great. Besides extra income, moonlighters enjoy variety, freedom and chance to do something new. They may also find their part-time jobs strengthen what they do full time.
Besides, “it’s fun,” Michel says. Not only do his part-time jobs offer a chance to network, stretch his professional skills and make more money, but they also give him the variety he wouldn’t find just in a full-time job.
“It’s a way of pulling from the spice cabinet,” he says, “and offering a little variety throughout the day.”
小题1:The reason why Fred Michel began to moonlight is that ________.
A.he found it exciting to do a part-time job |
B.he needed to make ends meet with more money |
C.he feared he would lose his present job one day |
D.he felt more and more pressure from his employer |
A.their workers cannot do extra-hour work for them |
B.their workers will be too tired to try their best at work |
C.their workers will one day turn to some other different jobs |
D.their workers will not get to work and be off work on time |
A.moonlighting gets you away from the job you don’t enjoy |
B.moonlighting offers you freedom to make extra money |
C.moonlighting strengthens your professional skills |
D.moonlighting brings you chances to do something different |
A.The ways of moonlighting. | B.The reasons for moonlighting. |
C.The problems with moonlighting. | D.The kinds of people who moonlight. |
