How I did it: Started playing since I was 7 years old. Watched some pianist concert on TV, and asked my mom/dad for a piano lesson.Got discouraged a week later, but my mom and the rest of the family pushed me through it. I cried, kicked my mom, tried to break the piano, even walked away from the lesson many times. Thanksfully my piano teacher and my family were very, very patient with me.After a year or so, playing piano is fun again. Now when I heard … Read how I did it…
This is probably the hardest, and most important goal in my life.
Why? Here’s my line of thought:
1. You cannot control outside elements.
2. You can only control yourself, what you think, what you feel, what you do.
3. In order to make the most out of your life, every thought and action should be directed toward accomplishing your goal and making you and others happy.
So what I (and we all) need is an ability to “direct” your mind. This is what I mean by being self-aware.
In… maybe 10-15 years. I want to learn to research and discover something for myself (and the society)
Possibly in Computer Science or in related fields.
