    Hi,Mark,almost you are right,but if you want  make the meaning more accuracy, i think "diffcult  circumstances"  is more similar to "难事" than "diffcult problems".
    and,"只"&“怕”at there should be together,"只怕" meaning" if only"
    he,just for your  reference:

    (世上) (无) (难事) ,(只怕) (有心人)

    (in the world) (there are no) (difficult problems), (if only  for  ) (conscientious people).

    we always said it in chinese: if you be a conscientious person, there will no diffcult things for you;  If you are perseverence,nothing is impossible.

    Anyway,your  translation is very good,hope you be a persistent person,and make "perfect"!~~<img alt="" src="http://www.italki.com/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/regular_smile.gif" />

    Thank you for sharing your opinion,many people knows this truth since long long ago in China,this really a fact no matter in which epoch,no matter anywhere.but we know :Money can buy a house, but not a home;Money can buy a bed,but not sleep;Money can buy a clock,but not time;Moeny can buy a position,but not respect;Money can buy companions, but not friends;Money can buy sex, but not love;Monet can buy insurance, but not safety.....anyway,Money may not be the root of all evil,But it often brings us anguish and regrets....what we should believe? i think,money its not everything,but without money you can do nothing~~~~we should learn how to use money and how to treat  money...
