There was once a man who kept ten monkeys as pets as he loved them. Every morning the monkeys would climb up and down the trees or jump from one branch( 树 枝 ) to another in his backyard. After that, he would feed them bananas.

One morning the man said to the monkeys, “We have very few bananas left today. For breakfast I shall give each of you two bananas and four for dinner.” When the monkeys heard this, they looked very unhappy. They refused to take the bananas that the man was handing out to them.

“Very well, then. You shall have four bananas in the morning and two for dinner,” the man said. The monkeys looked at one another. Then they jumped up and down happily, nodding( 点头 ) their heads. They took the big and yellow bananas from the man and started eating.

23、Many people complain(抱怨) in their life. Do you ever complain? When you try a new dress on, but only find you are too “big” to put yourself in. Do you complain about your shape of body? Do you tell yourself “If I have time tomorrow, I will go to the gym.” But do you actually take action?

Karen always complained about her house. One day I asked why she didn't look for another house. Karen answered, “I will look for another one when I come back from vacation.” Sam hated his job. However, he loved taking photos, and was taking a two-year course to get a certificate (证书). Every day he complained about his work. I asked him why he didn’t give up his job and start a business of taking photos. His reply was , “When I finish my course, I will start a business.”

Here is another example. Harry worked for a company that allowed him to retire (退休)early, but at a reduced pension (削减的养老金). Now Harry became very weak and found it difficult to deal with his work. I was worried about his heavy work and its influence (影响)on his health. “Why don’t you retire, Harry? Do something that you want to do,” I said. “If I were older, I would get my foil pension.” “When the next summer comes, maybe I will,” Harry replied.

There is an old saying that says, “If and When were planted, and Nothing grew.” A year later, Karen is still living in the house, and she hates it. Sam is still complaining about his job and hasn’t finished his course. Harry is still working and his health is even worse. These people had a lot of stress in their lives that they could have reduced(本该可以减少). But all of them beat themselves by thinking “if or when”.

Life is too short for “ifs and whens”. The next time you find yourself thinking “if or when”, remember the saying, “If and When were planted, and Nothing grew”.

A．look for another house

B．go to the gym

A．to work hard and never give up
