Never Give up

Many people fail in life because they do not realize how close they are to success when they give up. In this picture, we can see a man is cutting earth in a tunnel, hoping to find some diamonds. He makes great efforts in his work. However, after a long time of pains without gains, he decides to give up, feeling disappointed and depressed. But in fact he is very close to success when he gives up. With one or two more attempts of cutting, he would have seen those diamonds right in front of him.

This story tells us a very simple but important piece of truth: we should be confident in what we have chosen to do and never stop our effort until we succeed.

As a student preparing for the entrance examinations, I should learn a lesson from the man. Just like the diamonds in the picture, success is just waiting for my last efforts. I have been cutting earth for so many years, so I will never give up before I succeed.
