[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]Every path to success begins with agreat idea. There's only one problem: Great ideas are [/font][/color][font=Tahoma,]a dime a dozen[/font][color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]. What really matters when it comes to becoming a success is not having the idea but having the courage to transform that idea into reality. This usually means a risk of losing the security of a regular job and risking a steady paycheck. Only[/font][/color][font=Tahoma,]the brave [/font][color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]ever overcome this first of the pitfalls.[/font][/color]
[color=#444444][font=Tahoma,]每条成功之路都源于一个伟大的想法。唯一的问题是：伟大的想法遍地都是。对于成功而言，真正重要的并不是拥有这个想法，而是有勇气把这个想法变成现实。通常这意味着风险：失去稳定的工作，还有失去固定的工资。只有勇敢者才能越过这第一个绊脚石。[/font][/color]

Make yourself accountable and become the master of your destiny.[/font][/color]
