Ever seen a great champion boxer like Manny Pacquiao? With his speed, agility and power, he has conquered lots of other great boxers of the twenty first century. In between fights, he keeps his training regime and intensifies it when another fight approaches.
你是否曾见过像曼尼·帕奎奥这样伟大的拳击手？拥有速度、力量和灵活性，他战胜了21世纪许多伟大的拳击手。在比赛间隔期，帕奎奥坚持训练，并在比赛来临前增加训练强度。
Just like a boxer, we, too come face to face with many opponents in the arena of life—problems and difficulties. The bad news is, we don’t really know when our bouts with these opponents occur—no posters and promotional TV commercials; no pre-fight Press Conference and weigh in to make sure that we measure up to our opponent; and there is no Pay Per View coverage.
跟一个拳击手一样，我们在生活的大舞台上会遇到很多对手——问题和困难。坏消息是，我们不知道什么时候将会与这些“拳击对手”交手——没有宣传海报和电视促销广告，没有赛前新闻发布会和保证我们级别相当的体重测量，也没有出场费。
Here are several reasons why you should train yourself for success like a champion boxer!
为什么我们应该像一个拳击冠军那样训练自己？原因有以下几点。
You don’t practice in the arena, that’s where your skills and your abilities are evaluated. This also means that you don’t practice solving problems and developing yourself when problems occur, you prepare yourself to face them long before you actually face them.
舞台不是你练习技能的场所，而是评估你技能的地方。这也就意味着你不能在问题出现时才练习着解决问题、提升自己，你应在真正面对问题前就准备好。
Talent is good but training is even better. Back in college, one of my classmates in Political Science did not bring any textbook or notebook in our classes; he just listened and participated in discussions. What I didn’t understand was how he became a magna cum laude! Apparently, he was gifted with a great memory and analytical skills. In short, he was talented.
有天赋是件好事情，但是训练更重要。还在大学时，我的一位学政治学同学上课时从不带课本或者笔记，他只是听课、参与讨论。我所不能理解的是他如何成为一名优等生的！显然，他被赐予了极好的记忆和分析能力，简言之，他是个天才。
