4．Sir Steven Redgrave-Winner of 5Olympic Gold Medals
"In 1997I was found to have developed diabetes （糖尿病），believing the profession（职业） trained for the whole of my life ended，I felt very sorry．Then one of my friends said there was no reason why I should stop training．That was it-the encouragement I needed．I could still be a winner if I believed in myself．I am not saying that it isn't difficult sometimes．But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn't finished yet．Nothing is to stand in my way．"
Karen Pickering-Swimming World Champion （冠军）
"I swim 4hours a day，6days a week．I manage that amount（总数） of work by putting it on top of my diary．This is the key to success-you can't follow a profession in any field without being well-organized．Make a list of what you believe you can achieve．Trust yourself，write down your goals for the day，however small they are，and you'll be a step closer to achieving them．"
Kristen Stewart-Actress
"When things are getting hard，a voic e inside my head tells me that I can't achieve anything．Then，there are other distractions，such as family or hobbies．The key is to give most of your attention to one thing．When I feel nervous，it helps a lot to repeat words such as‘calm'，‘peace'，either out loud or silently in my mind．It makes me feel more in control and improves my confidence．This is a habit and is a powerful psychological（心理学的） tool．"
