Where There Is a Will, There Is a Way
This statement means that if you are really determined to do something, however difficult it might be, you will find a way of doing it at last. The point is that you must have the will if you are to succeed.
Ninety percent of the failures that occur are due to the fact there is no strong will. Many people simply say that they want something, but they do not make any attempt to achieve it. Thus, instead of getting it, they use the weakest excuses to explain the situation away.
On many occasions, too, people probably say much more than the truth about difficulties, making the objective impossible to reach. In fact, if one has the will to succeed, then the size of the obstacles① will seem smaller, and one can achieve one＇s goals.
If one wants to succeed, he should not allow obstacles or failures to prevent him from acting. He should learn to make his will stronger and to determine himself to achieve his ambitions.
One＇s will should be strong enough to wash or sweep away the difficulties in one＇s path to success. If one really has a strong will, then, somehow or other②, one will find a way to get what one wants, or reaches where one aims at arriving.
Many a famous man succeeded in arriving in their high social position because they had the will to overcome obstacles which were seemingly too difficult to be passed. They have managed to succeed because they controlled the will which helped them to achieve fame.
From what I say above, we can see that the main thing which one needs is will. Weak-willed people never make it to the top. A strong willed person, on the other hand, will stand up against all odds and will make it a point to succeed at last.

【寫法指要】
本文以定義至理名言“有志者，事竟成”開篇，把篇題定位在“You must have the will if you are to succeed.”上。正文分為5個自然段。第二、三段從反面闡述沒有堅強的意志和決心，只強調(diào)客觀、夸大困難就會失敗的道理。第五、六段從正面說明只要有志氣，有決心，就沒有克服不了的困難，就會最終取得成功的道理。第四段是過渡段，即由反面說理向正面闡述過渡。最后一段是結(jié)尾段，綜合上文說明能否成功的關(guān)鍵在于有沒有意志，意志薄弱就不會成功，意志堅強就能成功。這樣就與引言段的篇題“You must have the will if you are to succeed.”相呼應(yīng)了。用錢鐘書先生的話說，這叫“幡蛇章法”（la composition-serpent）：“端末鉤接，類蛇之自銜其尾
