奥里森·斯威特·马登《向前进》· Pushing to the Front · 领导
As the young lover has finer sense and more acute vision and sees in the object of his affections a hundred virtues and charms invisible to all other eyes, so a man permeated with enthusiasm has his power of perception heightened and his vision magnified until he sees beauty and charms others cannot discern which compensate for drudgery, privations, hardships, and even persecution. Dickens says he was haunted, possessed, spirit-driven by the plots and characters in his stories which would not let him sleep or rest until he had committed them to paper. On one sketch he shut himself up for a month, and when he came out he looked as haggard as a murderer. His characters haunted him day and night.

白话
热情能放大一个人的感知力，让他看见别人看不见的美和价值，从而抵消辛苦、匮乏甚至迫害。就像恋人眼里对方有无数优点，旁人都看不到。狄更斯说，故事的情节和人物缠着他，不写出来就睡不着、不得安宁。有一次他把自己关了一个月写一篇东西，出来时憔悴得像杀人犯。那些人物日夜缠着他。这说明，真正的热情不是一时兴奋，而是一种内在的驱动力，逼着你非做不可。如果你对某件事有这种放不下的感觉，别压抑它，顺着它去做，它会把枯燥和困难变得可以忍受。
