📖 今天要学习的句子
Six years after I had been hit in the face with a baseball bat, flown to the hospital, and placed into a coma, I was selected as the top male athlete at Denison University and named to the ESPN Academic All-America Team —an honor given to just thirty-three players across the country. By the time I graduated, I was listed in the school record books in eight different categories. That same year, I was awarded the university’s highest academic honor, the President’s Medal.

I hope you’ll forgive me if this sounds boastful. To be honest, there was nothing legendary or historic about my athletic career. I never ended up playing professionally. However, looking back on those years, I believe I accomplished something just as rare: I fulfilled my potential. And I believe the concepts in this book can help you fulfill your potential as well.
六年之后，在我被棒球棒击中面部、被送往医院并昏迷不醒后，我被选为Denison大学的最佳男运动员，并被列入ESPN学术全美队——这个荣誉只授予全国33名球员。到我毕业时，我的名字出现在学校记录册的八个不同项目中。同年，我还获得了学校最高的学术荣誉——总统奖章。

如果这听起来有些自夸，请原谅我。说实话，我的运动生涯并没有什么传奇或历史性的成就。我最终没有成为职业运动员。然而，回顾那段岁月，我相信我实现了某种同样罕见的成就：我实现了自己的潜力。我相信，这本书中的理念也能帮助你实现自己的潜力。
