    Pete Rose，the famous baseball player，whom I have never met，taught me something so valuable that it changed my life.Pete was being interviewed in spring training the year he was about to break Ty Cobb's all－time hits record.One reporter asked, “Pete，you only need 78 hits to break the record.How many at－bats(轮到击球) do you think you'll need to get the 78 hits？” Without hesitation，Pete said，“78.” The reporter yelled back，“Ah，come on Pete.You don't expect to get 78 hits in 78 at－bats，do you？”

Mr.Rose calmly shared his rule in life with all the reporters who were anxiously awaiting his reply.“Every time I step up to the plate，I expect to get a hit！If I don't expect to get a hit，I have no right to step in the batter's box in the first place！If I go up hoping to get a hit，then I probably don't have a prayer of getting a hit.It is the positive expectation that has gotten me all of the hits in the first place.”

When I thought about Pete Rose's rule and how it was applied to everyday life，I felt a little embarrassed.As a business person，I was hoping to make my sales meet the quotas(定额)．As a father，I was hoping to be a good dad.As a married man，I was hoping to be a good husband.The truth was that I was an adequate salesperson，I was not so bad as a father，and I was an okay husband.I immediately decided that being okay was not enough! I wanted to be a great salesperson，a great father and a great husband.I changed my attitude to one of positive expectations，and the results were amazing.I was fortunate enough to win a few sales trips，I won Coach of the Year in my son's baseball league，and I shared a loving relationship with my wife！Thanks，Mr.Rose!
