From Zero to Hero
Although we have some goal for us to achieve, but what happen during achieving the goal is quite remarkable as all of us started from zero, until now, a hero that drive exchange.
WHY HERO?
The hero is often simply an ordinary person in extraordinary circumstances, who, despite the odds being stacked against him or her, typically prevails in the end. Each and everyone of us are undeniably an ordinary student. We can select an ordinary university life, go lecture and tutorial, stay in the room watching running man (I don't know why this example always being cited)....
Remember how were you feeling when you received this email?
Excited? Anxious? Sad? Happy?
You started as an ordinary person with ordinary life.
But you choose to live an extraordinary life
and unleash your full potential in university life.
ALL OF THESE CANNOT BE ACHIEVED
So, do you know yourself better now?
From the Editor
Leadership?
Leadership is not an exclusive club for those who were "born with it". When I ask people why you don't run for VP position, these are the most answer I obtained from it.
I am not ready.
I am not born with leadership potential.
I fear...........................................................
Leadership is developed, not discovered. You can buy a few books that enlighten on leadership skills, but you must buy yourself a desire to lead.
Difference among them?
- Knowing how to do the job is the accomplishment of labour.
- Showing others is the accomplishment of teacher.
- Making sure the work is done by others is the accomplishment of a manager.
- Inspiring others to do better work is the accomplishment of a leader.
To be honest, the higher you go, the higher the level of commitment. I have work in AIESEC stuff for more than 10 hours per week (SEE AIESEC. :p). I have reflected on it to find whether I am effective or not during the duration. I have to admit, not all of them are effective. But, it is life anyway, not all of the "agenda" that happens in our daily life need to be both effective and efficient.
However, I always ask myself some questions before I kick start the day.
What is required of me?
What gives me the greatest return?
What is the priority for the day?
Am I taking too much of that?
These questions are not meant to enhance productivity, but it is essential to make the day purposeful. Otherwise, one day gone and never come back again. Bye bye
I am not yet in the position that can empower and inspire other people easily, but I believe in the higher you go, the greater you growth. In Malay, we normally translate it into: "Belum Cuba Belum Tahu, Sekali Cuba Tiap-Tiap Hari Mau." :p
Say YES to our dream!!!
"We develop action-driven youth leaders towards a united Malaysia"
