The video we saw in class is very inspiring. Some of the things said in the video are quite applicable to my own life. I agree, that having a vision is one of the significant factors to drive a person to success. Myself as a Baruch student do have my own visions, and I am being motivated to work hard by my personal desire to turn my visions into reality.
Here is a quick list of things I want to accomplish in the future:
1. Study abroad in Korea for at least one semester
2. Live and work in Asia after I graduate
3. Open my own business that sells Asian culture goods (clothes, food, chopsticks, daily use products)
The first two goals seem to be pre-goals to the last one, but I see them as individual goals/steps that I want to go through in achieving a successful life. First, studying abroad is the closest thing I can accomplish from now. I am completing all the pre-business classes this semester, and I will apply for Zicklin Business soon. Possibly next semester in fall I will apply for studying abroad. Based on my good academic standing, I should get approved.
The second thing in my mind is that I want to go back to Asia, live and work there. I haven't visit my hometown for almost 7 years. I miss my relatives and friends, especially my grandma who is almost 90 years old and wants to see the kid she raised. The best time to do that would be after I graduate from school, when I can spend several years in Asia. Now I am trying to get in contact with my friends in China and plan to visit China next year.
I also want to open my own business after several years of working. Hopefully I will have investment and expertise to maintain a business. Business in my own opinion is about trading, and trading always involves more than one person. Friends is one of the most important factors in helping me to accomplish this goal. I will continue to establish relationships with people, either from work or school, to enlarge my sphere of friends.
All these visions bring energy to my life. They are the visions of my destinations in life.

WOW...Live in Asia??? That seems really cool. My immediate family and I do not have any relatives in America. They are all back in Bangladesh where I was born but I don't think I would be able to live there permanently because it's complete different culture and atmosphere there.
ReplyDeleteWith the right connections you make here and China, you are well on your way on building a successful business. The Chinese culture is actually proper in international countries and in the USA...Thinking about trading all over?
Our goals are so similar. I want to study abroad too! And I will move back to China, my hometown after I graduate from college. I think you can try to run your business in U.S after couple years of working experience in China. Chinese culture stuffs will be more fascinating in a foreign country.
ReplyDeleteThree of your dreams are so attractive for me,"1. Study abroad in Korea for at least one semester
ReplyDelete2. Live and work in Asia after I graduate
3. Open my own business that sells Asian culture goods" ...I think to create a own business to sell what regarding to our own countries is most of the immigrants in New York willing to do. Those ideas are very good for you, good luck.
I think study abroad will be a great experience for anyone regardless where because it gives its participants the opportunity to widen their horizons. Even though I don't have your courage to study abroad for a semester, I am going to Italy this summer for its summer program. Therefore I think this vision shouldn't be too hard for you to realize. Also, since your other visions are so much like mine, let's wish us both luck on achieving them!
ReplyDeleteI have same goals as same as your last two. I believe you can reach them in the future.
