  it home.“Happy birthday, sweetie,” I said.“It’s not a frozen dinner or a video, but it’s

  My sister and I grew up in a little village in England. Our father was a struggling

  26

  , but I always knew he was

  27

  . He never criticized us, but used

  28

  to bring out our best. He’d say, “If you pour water on flowers, they flourish (繁盛). If you don’t give them water, they die.” I

  29

  as a child I said something

  30

  about somebody, and my father said, “

  31

  time you say something unpleasant about somebody else, it’s a reflection of you.” He explained that if I looked for the best

  32

  people, I would get the best

  33

  . From then on I’ve always tried to

  34

  the principle in my life and later in running my company.

  Dad’s also always been very

  35

  . At 15, I started a magazine. It was

  36

  a great deal of my time, and the headmaster of my school gave me a

  37

  : stay in school or leave to work on my magazine.

  I decided to leave, and Dad tried to persuade me to change my decision,

  38

  any good father would. When he realized I had made up my mind, he said, “Richard, when I was 23, my dad

  39

  me to go into law. And I’ve

  40

  regretted it. I wanted to be a biologist,

  41

  I didn’t pursue (追寻) my

  42

  . You know what you want. Go fulfill (完成) it.”

  As

  43

  turned out, my little publication went on to become Student, a national

  44

  for young people in the U.K. My wife and I have two children, and I’d like to think we are bringing them up in the same way Dad

  45

  me.
