     When something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, "Well, it's so-and-so's fault." or "I know
I'm late, but it's not my fault; the car broke down." It is probably not your fault, but once you form the habit
of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could
do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if
you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner's
key to success.
     Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down,
maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the
useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes
you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or
inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don't rely on this person.
You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of
how your colleague fails to do his job well.
     This is what being a winner is all about-creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful
no matter what happens. Winners don't have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult
situation to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities
to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on "whose fault it is." Once you are confident about your
power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stones for success.

     One year ago today, seven patients shared their stories of illness and recovery on the New York Time Well
(a blog), according to a report published in April,2009.
     They were the first Patient Voices, a regular series that offers a first person (第一人稱的) description of
the challenges patients face as they deal with different kinds of health problems. Since the first Patient Voices
appeared, New York Times producer Karen Barrow has continued to give a voice to a lot of patient stories.
     We heard from Jacqueline Castine of Bloomfield Hills, Mich,who had bipolar disorder (躁郁癥), and whose
son also suffered from mental (精神的) illness."I could not save him," she said."I could not fix (懲罰 ) him.
He leaves a beautiful daughter and a very sad mother."
     And there is runner Alyssa Johnson,43,who was training for the Boston Marathon in 2003 when she began
showing the first signs of Parkinson's disease." Sometimes when I'm running I'll come to a long downhill, and
my legs work the way they used to work and my arm swings (擺動(dòng)) the way it used to. It's like running before Parkinson's, and that's the best feeling.
     And then there's the voice of Robin Grinsted, 50, of Swansea, S. C.,who has H. I. V. She is refused by her
church and feels lonely."They're not accepting," she said." But I know there will be people putting their arms
around me some day."
