What if I miss the early bus? Will I succeed in passing the English exam?【小题1】 Stop! The self-doubt stops right here. Here are some suggestions you can do to solve the negative idea and start believing in yourself.

Believe in yourself

The first step to overcome anything is to know about yourself. Once you have some negative ideas, that is to say, you are doubting yourself. You must think you can do it. As you realize your self-doubt, you will get quicker at confirming and stopping it. See? 【小题2】.

Take a break

Sometimes it is our mind that goes against us. Wherever you find yourself having doubts, take a break. 【小题3】 Ask yourself what made you get into this situation. It will get you to realize why you started it in the first place.

【小题4】 Too often we determine how we feel about ourselves according to what other people about us. Our self-worth is just dependent upon what we think of ourselves. So we must break free from the chairs that tell us our self-worth is recognized by other people.

Find support

【小题5】   Find support through friends and read inspirational books. Sometimes we all need to hear something that will get us moving again. We also need to communicate with others who understand us.

This past fall, my husband and I stopped into the local Aldi for shopping. While checking out, I did my usual practice of replying to the cashier's usual "How are you today?" with a short but real answer. Then I looked at her and said, "And how are you doing?" and waited kindly and expectantly for an answer.

She was a little surprised, but then she got started. As it turned out, her elderly grandfather was the most important in her mind, but he had been struggling lately and in hospital. Her worry was obvious, despite her bravery. "I know he is ninety-one, but "Her voice turned into a sad whisper before she caught herself." If it won't offend (冒犯) you, I will pray for him," I said. "Oh, thank you!" she replied.

Several weeks or so in the future, we wound up in her line again. After the usual "How are you?" I paused, then quietly asked, "I hope this is not a bad question, but how is your grandfather doing?"

I could tell she had to think a moment to place me and to recall why I was asking. Then her face split into a huge smile full of light, and she started excitedly telling us about how he was a tough old bird, how he had recovered, and was doing well. She kept bubbling over even after we had moved to the bagging area.

I was amazed at how something so seemingly small meant so much to her, but it makes sense, really. Sometimes all we need is for someone to see us and care, to care if we are hurting and to celebrate with us in our joy.

Taking the time to listen when we ask, "How are you?" is such an almost small action only taking a few moments out of our day, yet how important that tiny amount of time can be!

We really are all in this together.

You may probably meet most of the powerful graduation speakers, here who are well-known people in their fields. I think the schools couldn't have picked better speakers than them, because they set good examples,deeply inspiring us in our daily life.

1) Steve Jobs, Stanford University:

"Remembering you're going to die, and the best way I know is to avoid the trap of thinking that you have something to lose. There is no reason not to follow your heart. Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice... "

2) Oprah Winfrey, Stanford University:

"I consider the world, this Earth, to be like a school... And the secret I've learned to get ahead is being open to the lessons from the grandest universe of all. Don't react against a bad situation. And the solution will arise from the challenge. So don't give up easily, acting with responsibility... "

3) Bono, University of Pennsylvania:

"For four years you've been buying, trading, and selling everything you've got in this market-place of ideas. Your pockets are full, even if your parents' are empty, and now you've got to figure out what to spend it on... The world is more flexible than you think and it's waiting for you to hammer it into shape... "

4) Michael Dell, University of Texas at Austin:

"Now it's time for you to move on to what's next and obtain your desire. But you must not let anything prevent you from taking those first steps. Don't spend so much time trying to choose the perfect opportunity, or sometimes you'll miss the right opportunity. Recognize that there will be failures and obstacles. But you will learn from your mistakes and the mistakes of others. "
