A word of caution...
Here's what this all is about, well you know many people do this and do that in their life, but sometimes I really wonder how many people really think about why they do something...
I mean this post's title "Purpose behind Purpose" is something that is said by Ernest, I also didn't remember when the first time he told me about this, but I'll always remember this powerful sentence.
During the resources briefing Ernest asked us some question, and one of them are "Why are you here?" well to be honest I know that some people go to SuperTeen without any special reason, I mean some of them are forced by parents, some just looking for fun and some even have no idea why they are here for..
For me myself I have certain goal and this camp is an opportunity for me to Challenge myself and to prove that I can and I will become a Great Trainer. In the beginning, when I started to translate, the truth is that I'm not really good, my intonation sucks and I can't go all the way out and the Best Translator and the man that also help me and give me this opportunity Ko Fredy surely know about this.
Ko Fredy always supported me, give me advices, tell me my weaknesses and push me to do even better and also Ko Dickson a Great man that is almost like my own brother, both of them keep supporting me to become better, special thanks to them.
In fact, some people campers and resources come to me and asked something like..."Hey how can you translate so well? So fast and clear?" many asked that and also something like "Hey how come your English is so good?". When the first begin asking something like that I actually also took a few second and think about this, I mean yes I also didn't realize it..
I remember that if you have a strong reason to do something, it will be a lot easier for you to achieve that and Ernest also said "If you can't, you must". They both are totally right!
In short, since I wanted to become a trainer, becoming a Translator is one of the way to become one!
Let me tell you a secret,, at the beginning I actually do something that is unusual, you know I listen to Ernest's SuperTeen cd that I got when I join the camp, Anthony Robbins tape and as they talk, I translate it, until my speed is fast enough to match them and it helps me a lot. Why would I bother to do that? It's because I have certain goal to reach and so I suggest all of us to find our own dreams, so that we can start setting goals to achieve them.
So I think we always have to ask ourself, why we did something, is it just for fun or do we have a certain goal to reach something precious that gives us the power to push ourselves to the next level. This is so important since many of us didn't really have purpose in life.
In fact this is a very funny case sometime, ask I was still stacked in the godforsaken German School, there was this rascal which is once one of my Best friend. He's so rich that he only wanted to enjoy his life and depends on his parents, he don't even want to continue his study for the university, what a waste of talent. Stupid isn't it? But it happens to many people too. This also is a matter of fact that can be good or bad (depends on how we look at it) that many students have no goal!!!
Later on I'll also write more about friendship, since your friends the people you're with are the people that will impact your life most.
So if we have no goal, we won't have any reason or purpose to do something.
That's why we always have to ask ourself these few question...
What am I going to do 1year from now?
5years from now?
even 10years from now?
What are the things that I wanted to achieve in my life?
Those things are important lesson that I learned in SuperTeen
and like Peter Lau said in his book...
"Success comes Early,
For Those Who Start Early!"
So let's start early!! That's all from me for now,,,
Thank you for reading..
And as the Wind blows… Cya at the Top!!!
