Believe in Yourself

Life is not easy for most of people, so when anything happens, be sure to believe in yourself.

when I was 14, I found it hard to talk to anyone. My classmates often laughed at me. I was really sad but could do nothing.

Later, something changed my life. It was an English speech contest. My mother asked me to take part in it. It meant I had to speak in front of all the teachers and students of my school! “Come on , boy. Believe in yourself,” my mother said.

Since then, things have changed. When I do something, I always tell myself to be confident. This is true not only for me but also for everybody.

相信自己

生活对大多数人来说并不容易，所以当发生任何事情时，一定要相信自己。

当我14岁的时候，我发现很难和任何人交谈。我的同学经常嘲笑我。我真的很伤心，但无能为力。

后来，一些事情改变了我的生活。那是一场英语演讲比赛。我妈妈让我参加。这意味着我必须在学校所有的老师和学生面前讲话！“来吧，孩子。“相信你自己，”我妈妈说。

妈妈和我谈了很多不同的话题。最后，我选择了“相信自己”这个话题。我练习了100多次。有了母亲的厚爱，我在比赛中取得了好成绩。听说我得了一等奖，我简直不敢相信自己的耳朵。

从那以后，情况发生了变化。当我做某事时，我总是告诉自己要自信。这不仅对我，对每个人都是如此。
