Many people go to school for education. School education is very important and useful, but no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can't teach his student everything. His work is to show his students how to learn .He teaches them how to read and how to think. So much more is to be learned outside school by students themselves.

It’s always more important to know how to learn by oneself than to learn some facts or formulas(公式) by heart. It’s quite easy to learn some facts in history or a formula in maths, but it’s very difficult to use them. Edison and Einstein didn’t get everything from school, but they were all successful. They invented so many things. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read many books outside school. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. The most important thing is that they know how to use their brains（大脑）.

     In one way of thinking, failure is part of life. In another way, failure may be a way towards

success. The "spider-story" is often told. Robert Bruce, leader of the Scots in the 13th century,

was hiding in a cave from the English. He watched a spider making a web(网). The spider tried

to reach across a rough place in the rock. He tried six times. On the seventh time he made it and

went on to make his web. Bruce is said to have been encouraged by this and to have gone on to

defeat the English. Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, made hundreds of models that failed

before he found the right way to make one. Once he was asked why he kept on trying to make

a new type of battery when he had failed so often, he replied, "Failure? I have no failure. Now

I know 50,000 ways it won't work."

    So what? First, always think about your failure. What caused it? Were conditions right? Were

you in top form yourself? What can you change so things will go right next time?

    Second, is the goal you're trying to reach the right one? Try to do some thinking about what

your real goals may be. Think about this question, "If I do succeed in this, where will it get me?"

This may help you prevent failure in things you shouldn't be doing anyway.

    The third thing to keep in mind about failure is that it's a part of life. Learn to "live with yourself"

even though you may have failed.
