Life

Today, I typed in Google something about NBS Excel and Access quiz and I came across a few students' blogs.


So, being the nosy me, I went around and read a couple of their posts each and really it was all revolving around school. Most of  which are complains and ranting about how school is so tough, stressful and boring.


For me, I won't deny that it is indeed stressful and relentless, but I don't expect University life to be simple in the first place. It's a harsh battle among the best who have made it to University. You can't expect them to be letting you win or anything like that.


Its competitive, yes, but that will only make us stronger. Its like what they say, perfection sucks because that means you can't improve anymore, its the end of the road.


So in this case, its about the same thing really, if you keep yourself surrounded by average people and then you become the top among them, there's really nothing much to be happy or contented with. Even if you are very comfortable in that kind of setting, you will be trashed and obliterated by the immense pressure when you go out into the real world.


That is where all the professionals are. They are the top of the top who have emerged victorious in their respective faculties in their respective Universities. They have sharpened their skills in the outside world and you, who have just came out is really vulnerable.


So really, I think University life is tough but it's merely a training ground for the outside world. If you can't keep a positive attitude towards challenges and improvements, then your growth rate will be heavily impeded and at the end of the day, you will end up sinking towards the bottom of the chain.


This might sound severely harsh to those reading this, but the truth hurts. Not that you must be despicable to survive or to backstab to survive, I think most importantly, it is to have a positive mindset and attitude towards everything you do.


Give it your all. You might face challenges along the way, but the truth is, nothing is simple nor easy.
