IV. Explain the following statements, minimum of 8 sentences and not more than 15 sentences.
1. "Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value."
Strive not to be success, but rather to be of value means being a better person which can be a big help to others. Trying to be success means doing anything in order to receive or achieve the things you wanted. Success determines the things you have received. Striving for success means wanting to get something wherein a person wants to just receive. And being value means doing beneficial to others by means of giving more in life. Being valued through giving or sharing what you have. Things that a person can give such as money, clothes, emotional support, being caring, and many more.
Moreover, I view striving to be of value as being grateful wherein when someone is being grateful, they share the things they have to individuals who does not have those things. Being of value may also mean being kind to others or showing kindness.
2. “The moment you start to stand for yourself is the moment the world will stand against you.”
In my opinion, the statement is about having the courage and facing the challenges we have in life. It is about having the pressure when we want to fight for something. The world will stand against us the moment we stand for ourselves it is because we were being defenceless and submissive to what other people do about us. It is because people around us never notice nor appreciate our presence when we follow nor just go with the flow with what is happening. However, the moment we share our thoughts about something, then this is the moment that our presence is being watched and judged just because we are against of what the majority wants.
For example, an individual is accustomed with just complying his/her requirements will not feel that the world is against them since they just go with the flow in life. While an individual who is very competitive and does not just go with the flow in life wherein they stand up and fight over things. They will feel pressured since they are frustrated to show nor to achieve the exact thing that they want.
3. "The pessimist complains about the wind. The optimist expects it to change. The leader adjusts the sails.”
In my opinion, the statement/quotation is telling us about how a person thinks/ views the challenges and problems in life. Pessimist is being negative, it views all things as a failure, it views that people will not have a success in life no matter what. For me, pessimist is about being coward whereas, one will not be able to keep going forward if a person is being pessimist. On the other hand, optimist is the opposite of pessimist wherein this is the positive side thinking of a person. It is what keeps us working, it is what who encourages us to keep going forward no matter the consequences. This is about being hopeful and being confident in life to be able to move to the next journey in life.
The self should not be pessimist that complains about life. We should keep in ourselves to be optimist. It is or key to be able to find success and to be able experience the enjoyment of life we have. [Show Less]
