To direct me to the desired direction.
To analyze problems and teach me to look at things at a broader perspective.
To influence me in striving for my passion, to work hard & work smart.
Reflected on my first semester and I have derived that my attitude and perspective may be just what I have to overcome first in me. I need to have a purpose which I strongly believe in, so that in the next 7 semesters I wouldn’t lose myself but continue to strive on. with this purpose in mind, I would stop asking myself rhetorical questions like ‘why am here on a Saturday/ Sunday/ PH doing projects?’, ‘are these worth it?’, ‘why am I the one doing these?’, ‘why must I mug so hard?’, ‘is getting an A possible?’ yes questions like these kept me pondering every day as I was entangled up in a series of mayhem, busy fighting fire and not knowing clearly why am I fighting so hard. I was often lost, knowing that i have to do this just because its the course requirement, because due dates are approaching, because my groupmates..
The torch- don’t regret.
it reflects that I need to put my beliefs in myself- work hard just for myself, because I have only lived once, so I want to make my life that’s one worth living, I don’t want to regret not doing things that I’ll regret not doing, because I’m only the one in control of my life. I need to and want to be open to every circumstances & regard it as a learning opportunity, don’t complaint, once you complaint you remember it & take it to heart. In order to be open & positive, stop complaining.
Why do i study hard?
With knowledge you are empowered, and it challenge you to look beyond the surface, developing tolerance & acceptance towards others and within you.
Yes yes yes, keep these in mind, and you’ll be alright. Have faith.
Self love.
Love yourself for who you are, though the aspiration in the betterment of oneself is healthy, but never think that you are not good. You are good.
Be open, be courageous.
If opportunities were to visit you again, never let it slipped away. If you never try, never explore out of your comfort zone, you’ll never learn & discover new strength & weakness.
