B In March 2008，I told my friends：I was going to shut down my law practice and travel around the world in a year. Whats more，Id do it without taking any flights or making a single advance (预先的) reservation. Some friends offered support and encouragement，while others were doubtful. Once Id said the words，there was no turning back. It took months to shut down my law practice and get things in order. There really wasnt any great reason why I wanted to circle the world. I simply wanted to do something fun and different. When I had this plan，I didnt plan for it to lead to a life on the road forever. I was planning to come back，open a new law practice and write a hugely successful book about my travels. Before I left，I started a travel blog， which served as a way to take notes for the book. Once I set off on my trip in December 2008，I found that travelling without using planes was not easy. It took seven days and nights on trains to get from Moscow to Beijing. Sometimes，I wouldnt see a village or a human being for 10 hours. I had a whole cabin to myself from the second day of that journey. It turned out that travelling with no reservations was far less difficult than I had imagined. Pulling into a city on a bus with a bag，looking in a guidebook for a few suggestions of accommodations (住宿)，and then finding an empty room was never a problem. Soon after I started this adventure，I realised that my return to the US would be temporary (暂时的)About three months into my journey，I realised that I didnt want to go back to my old life. The world is so wonderful and I wanted to see as much of it as I could. 4Whats the authors friends attitude to his new plan? ADissatisfied. BSupportive. CUncaring.

Yes，you should give yourself a prize or some kind of reward when youve done a task. 2 Remember，you have to know the exact conditions that you need to meet in order to receive the wonderful cake. 3 You need to feel confident about your studies. I am sure all of us have succeeded on several occasions. Remember these past successes and you will feel more motivated to continue! Write down your goals. Dont just think about them，dont just say them，write them down！ 4 And thats why you find salesmen always want you to write something down before you actually buy something. By writing your name down，you are in a sense giving your support for their cause. If then you are asked to buy what they are selling，you are more likely to do that than if you hadnt signed the paper!
