Yesterday, as per normal, all the secondary 2 students of Hwa Chong Institution filed into the auditorium for a level assembly when they have a dialogue to discuss problems in the school and other administrative matters. Occasionally, there would also be talks by teachers. Yesterday was one of the assemblies that consisted of the speech.
Although what I heard was in chinese, I believe I can share it with you viewers in English. I found the talk very interesting as it thought you how to be successful in whatever you did. People always think that something different would always equate to something new and therefore would be good. However, what if it was not accepted? Well, that's when this talk came into play. The talk explained that to be successful, people had to be NORMAL. Trying to be normal, instead of standing out, would always be better. Why? Simple. Because most new ideas would be unaccepted by the modern society because it would view new ideas as controversies. Evidently, people would not be very open to controversies, right? Therefore, in today's society, being normal would naturally be the best policy. I felt that this was very reasonable, therefore I am sharing it with you today.
The speaker was very straightforward, and said that even if, 20 years down the road, should you not have what you dream of, just continue, perservere, and BE NORMAL.
So, what do you think about this talk? Comment to share with me about it.
