Nowadays, there is an discussion about a statement that in order to succeed, you should be more like others than be different from everyone else. Different people have different opinions about this. I am disagree with this idea.Firstly, I consider that people who succeed usually different from others. They have their own perspective and they do not afraid of failling to take action. Bill Gates dropped out of school when he was a junior ,he was not as same as other students that graduated from univesities and find a job to make a life. Bill dared to take action to make his dream come true and established Microsoft Coporation step by step. Finally,he succeed.Meanwhile, people achieved their goal also having the characteristic of persistence. If Thomas Edison had no patience to do the experiment over and over to  invent the electric light , he could not made such a big contribution to human beings. Also, if he gave up when he met a lot of difficulty, he never succeed either.On the  other hand, successful people have as same as others'  characteristic of perserverance, optimistic, positive and confident. At begining of studying  english, I find it is too difficult. While I never give up and encourage myself all the time , I follow the plan to learn and keep working on it. I deserved a fulfilling job at the end. People that make a accomplishment may have the same feature with others. In all, distinguished people may easier to success than other people. They persist in what they thought, never give up and dare to try new things, even if they are in a lonely situation.
