When I was young, I dreamed to achieve my own value one day. At the time, it was just a slogan because I had no idea what the value actually was. And in terms of my first understanding, the personal value was just our working for the society. However, at present, I would rather say that I have already had a general understanding about personal value, though I do not know whether it is right or not.
Value are expressions of emotionalized truths that when implemented energize whatever they come in contact with, enabling the greatest positive results with the least effort in the shortest period of time -- whether it is for the individual or not (by Garry Jacobs).
Many people say a personal value can be shown during the process. And they pay much more attention on their creativity and importance in a team. They believe that paying to their best, they will always gain their value which is most made up of reputation, respect, trust and reliance. However, I would like to come up with a different idea. Narrowly speaking, I regard value as a result which reflects what we get finally. No matter how hard we work and how many efforts we make, if we get no progress or a required result, we made no contribution to the society. At the moment, we equal to outsiders who stand aside doing nothing. So I always think that once we make a decision to do something, we should strive after it and work hard for a satisfying result.
Now, I still dream to achieve my personal value, which leads me to try my best to catch up with others, but compared with my previous vague view, I have a different understanding of it. With a clear awareness and longing of my future, I will spare time on pursuing a good result in my life. In ten years, I hope that I have right to say “looking back on the past ten years, I gained so much. Today, I have been successful in fulfilling my goals and getting what I longed for before.”
sometimes i would also pounder about what is actually my value. maaybe it is the contributions i can make to the society or the trouble i can bring to the surroundings. and yes, it may also be the dream i want to fulfill.
ReplyDeleteSo, I want to know what is your biggest goal that you are longing for achieve?
ReplyDeleteI think if its ourselves who evaluate our achievement, we do not really to get a very outstanding to satisfy others. Sure, every time we make a decision to do something, we should stick to it and try our best to get a satisfying result. However, I think if we are so eager for our goal , it may turn out to the contrary result. What we can do is to spare all our effects and pray for a good consequence. It is like the Chinese old saying “尽人事知天命”.
I hope you can achieve your value one day.
We all have dreams when we were kids. For instance, I used to dream of being a scientist one day. But now I have changed my mind because I don't think I am good at research.We cannot compete with someone in a certain area so all we need to do is to find out our advantages and make full use of them
ReplyDeleteI think it is very precious to own a dream and to fight for it. Maybe some of our dream will never come true, but after all we have fight fot it. We are so young now, we do not need to consider the consequence of chasing our dream, just do it, and just enjoy it. Live a exciting a life.
ReplyDeleteAltough what we get reflects the value, the process is also important. We should pay attention to the process, thus we can gain our goals and ralise personal value. If you only focus on the result, you may get nothing.
