20、anson, an English business magnate, has had great, global success. He is best known as the founder of Virgin Group, which consists of more than 400 companies. So what, I asked, is his most important secret to success? His answer was simple: look for the best in other people. Throughout his life hes
21、never thought ill of other people. He looks for the best and praises them. Branson at times seems almost not human. Hes too good at what he does. No, great. Nearly perfect. When he starts something, he is very likely to succeed. He has fallen out with others though, like anyone else. He is human. He
22、 told me:Life is short and the world is much smaller than one realizes. You are going to come across people time and time again in the most surprising places . As a leader its even more important to be out there praising and encouraging people. If you do fall out with somebody in life, even if you t
23、hink it was their mistake, give them a call. Befriend them. Go out to lunch with them. The greatest leaders in the world have taught forgiveness. Perhaps the most extreme example is Nelson Mandela who invited his former prison guard to his inauguration （就职典礼） and even had lunch with a man who in the

25、e manner, we must heal our past relationships. Branson wins respect from those around him. A natural-born leader, he is always deep in thought and hungry for more; always one step ahead.

The key to success C Deep in the wilderness of northern Kenya, two boys found a pair of crying cheetah cubs （猎豹幼崽）. The cubs mother had been killed by a lion. The cheetahs were only a few weeks old. In
28、the wild, about 9 out of 10 cheetah cubs die before they are three months old. They are food for lions. But these cubs were so lucky that they were saved by their heroes, who brought them to Jane and Ian Craig. The Craigs help save endangered animals at the Lewa Wildlife Conservancy. The Craigs nurs
29、ed the cheetah cubs back to health feeding them with bottles, sleeping with them, and comforting them. They named the cubs Sambu and Toki. But what would become of these cubs? How would they survive on their own? In the wild, cubs stay with their mothers until they are almost 2 years old. During tha
30、t time, cheetah mothers teach their young how to hunt and how to protect themselves. The Craigs wouldnt be able to find a cheetah mother to teach the cubs. So they turned to a man named Simon King. King has spent more than twenty years studying cheetahs. He gave them a nod of approval when hearing about this, though taking care of two baby cubs would take a huge amount of time. For two years, he would need to have them at his side most of the time. But he felt there was no other choice. And so, when the brothers were one month old, Kin
