based on the rich experience of the previous two years, I think the first thing I want to do is the high heels of the girls. I am an expert in this field. I have a gifted idea to invent a kind of folding high-heeled shoes. The ladies of New York shuttle every day in the metropolis with such a foldable high heels, and they can wear comfortable flat shoes on their way to work and change into fashionable high heels to work. I think it's like mixing the movie "hunger game" and "sex and the city". After that, we had the first pair of shoes, and one of our employees almost broke their fingers when the heel was broken. I soon realized that I knew nothing about these high-heeled shoes, and that was definitely not the kind of fashion I wanted. I took a month off and tried not to think about the business of this dangerous heel.
and come up with another idea, and I think it's going to be a fire, that is to design a garment with a knee pad for the kids who have just learned to crawl. Such a wonderful idea must be matched by a stunning slogan. Perhaps this slogan can only be written by Shakespeare. Our slogan is finally: they do not say that does not mean that they are not suffering. That business was a great failure. In the next 5 years, I worked very hard, and I thought it was a wise choice to drop out of school when I was able to graduate with only four credits left, and it turned out that my ideas were very wrong.
I dropped out of school, full of passion for my favorite cause, and at the time of our best success, sales were $2 million, and at that time spending was $3 million, and every month, I was worried about the wages of our employees. 5 years after I came to New York, I was 28 years old. I was 30 pounds thinner than I am today. I smoked a pack of cigarettes a day. My hands kept shaking and I lost myself completely.

she said it was very simple to do what you most want to do now. If you are not interested in anything you do, you are wasting your time. Purposefully do something meaningful. If you do both of these things, the road to success will naturally be opened for you.
that day I did two things immediately, the first one was to propose to her, although we had only been dating for a few months at that time, Rebecca, and now I want to say thank you, thank you for marrying me, and thank you for being with me all the time. I also hope that all of you here today will be able to find your soul mate. The second gift Rebecca brings to me is making plans for meaningful life. I also want to share with you my experience and experience in the next few minutes:
first, constantly improve yourself. If you don't progress every day, you are wasting your life. Self growth is a daily activity. I know everyone here is going to graduate, but on the road of self growth, we are students all our lives. Every night before going to bed, ask yourself, did I learn something new today? Is there a big progress or a small one? If your answer is negative, please seriously consider that every day we should make new progress.
Second, the life partner you choose will be the most important decision in life. No matter what other people say. We love our family, we can not choose, born to be. Our brothers and sisters are destined to be family with us. This is a fact that can not be changed. We love them unconditionally. But you really can choose your partner. Make sure you choose the right one. I also have a few little suggestions about how to choose the right partner: 1. the real soul mate is not attracted to the big words you say, and they will be happy for what you really do. They won't be with you, whether you have a decent job, a decent job, a handsome look, and a way of speaking with you. The real partner not only likes the real you now, but also sees your potential and falls in love with the future you; the real partner will be happy for you at the celebration dinner and will go with you. The hard times of life; real partners will tolerate the shortcomings that are most uncomfortable with them.
