Make Excuses Or Make Changes!

What happens with students, and I see this all the time. They start university but with the mindset that they're constantly looking for excuses, about why things aren't going the way they want, why they're disappointed with their exam results, why they don't think their professor is teaching them effectively, why they keep getting up late and missing classes. 
很多同学，上大学之后，如果发现事情不顺利，或者对考试结果感到失望，或者觉得教授没有认真上课，或者一直睡懒觉、旷课，他们就会找借口。

And when you do that, you take all the power you have in your life, and you give it away. You just throw it all away, because you're blaming other people. By blaming your professors, or your university, or your friends or family or your circumstances, you give your power away to them, but you need to embrace it.
如果你总是找借口，其实就是在放弃自己的主动权，把决定权交给别人。因为你总在抱怨别人，所以其实你抛弃了自己的主动权。如果你总是发牢骚，埋怨老师，埋怨学校，埋怨朋友，埋怨家人，埋怨现状，那么你就把主动权交给了他们。然而，你应该掌握自己的主动权。

小提示：如果你真的想练好听力，一定要先盲听一遍（泛听），然后再对照着文稿听一遍（精听），重点去留意那些自己没有听出来的部分，到底是由于连读导致的，还是由于生词导致的？

如果有精力，可以先多盲听几遍，再去看文稿。如果你依赖性比较强，听第一遍的时候就跟着稿子，那么你的听力进步会非常慢。
