Every once in a while, take some time to reflect on your progress. For example, if your goal is to lose a certain amount of weight, instead of beating yourself up for not getting there yet, you should compare some old photos of yourself to the new ones. By doing so, you?ll get a visual proof of your progress which serves as great inspiration for future advances. Meanwhile, if you achieve certain success, no matter how big or small it is, treat yourself to a movie, favorite sweet, or a short trip with your friends. More importantly, do appreciate the process and the lessons learned, because in this way, you?ll be able to avoid the stress and negative emotions, even if you don?t achieve the ultimate goal.

Every year, when new school year begins, many Chinese parents of freshmen insist on accompanying their children to the universities. Other than proudly witnessing the moment when their children step into universities, parents insist that they should assist with any unexpected problems their children might face.
In order to teach incoming freshmen their first lesson in independence, Tsinghua University has set up a “Parent-restricted” area where students have to go through the enrollment(入学) procedure all by themselves. On social networking sites like www.renren.com, students are inviting their peers to go to university together, not only for safety, but also to avoid parents? overprotection. 【写作内容】

As is illustrated in the cartoon, a freshman goes to enroll in a university lying leisurely on the cart pushed by his seemingly exhausted father with a heavy backpack on the back, which makes the receptionist of the University astonished.
In my opinion, it\'s unnecessary for parents to follow their children to universities. Children shouldn?t be spoiled and letting them enroll alone is a good opportunity to develop their self-reliance ability. After all, they have to learn to be independent and take care of themselves when they are far away from their parents. Besides, it\'s a good idea for new college students to invite their peers as their traveling companions. Chances are that they will make friends with each other. Therefore, the fewer accompanying parents there are, the better, with students more independent and their social skills improved. As for parents, they?re expressing their true love when they let their children go.
