If you’re a salesman, google for the best and most useful books on improving your sales.
This applies(适用) to all fields, not just the workrelated（与工作相关的）ones. Maybe you want to improve your health, become a more energetic person. Or maybe you want to improve your study, your relations or perhaps do some personal development.
One hour a day is not much. But if you read for one hour a day on weekdays, that’s about 260 hours a year. That’s a large number of books and a lot of useful advice.
If you follow the ideas, who knows what great things and feelings could come into your life. Also, all that information and advice will start to open up your mind. You will start to see more chances in your life.

Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. There was another building not far from mine. A woman lived there. I had never met her, but I could see her sit by the window each afternoon, drinking or reading.
After several months, I began to find that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “What a lazy woman! I want to know why she doesn’t wash her window. It really looks terrible.”
One bright morning, I decided to clean my flat, including the window. I worked the whole morning. When I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Everything in the woman’s flat could be seen clearly. Her window was clean!
I began to understand. I watched the woman’s window from my own dirty window. That’s the problem!
This is quite an important lesson for me. How often do I look at and criticize(批评) others through the dirty window of my heart?
From then on, whenever I want to judge someone, I ask myself first, “Am I looking at him through my dirty window?” Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see others’ world more clearly.

People use money to buy food, books and hundreds of other things they need. When they work, they usually get paid in money.
Most of the money used today is made of metal or paper. But people used to use all kinds of things as money. One of the first kinds of money was shells(贝壳).
In China, cloth and knives were used as money. Elephant tusks(牙), monkey tails and salt were used in some parts of the world. Rice was also a kind of money used by the people in some islands.
The first copper coins(硬币) were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the center. Different countries have used different metals for their money. Later, some countries began to make coins of gold and silver(银). But gold and silver were heavy to carry when people needed a lot of coins to buy something expensive. The Chinese were the first to use paper money. The first paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than the paper money used today.

Everybody is different from others. There is nobody in the world that is exactly like you: you are unique(唯一的)！That makes the world interesting. There are people who are taller than you. Maybe your hair is the same color as your friend’s, but perhaps yours is longer than hers. Another difference is that your hair may be straight and hers may be curly.
I am sure you have friends who are smarter than you. And you also have friends who are as good at sports as you. But there are also people around you who are not good at these things. However, you can also become good friends.
Are you the same as your best friend? Do you both like to finish your homework the same day you get it? Are you both neat? I think in some ways you are the same, but in many other ways you are different.
So shout to the world, “I am who I am – I am unique!” It takes all sorts to make a world.
