Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? If you do not make sure other people
(especially influential people or your employers) know about your strengths and accomplishments,
you will never get successful in life
I do agree with the statement. With the development of our society and increasing number of the people on Earth, every person has to have too much stress from society, and the competition in front of them is more fierce than ever before. People have to make themselves outstanding enough
in order to
defeat their competitors and win a good chance.
First, what can be called success? In different areas, success has its different meaning. But generally, a person's success can be defined as that he gets much wealth or are in high status or has a great power. No matter which one of them, wealth, status or power, comes from society. So a person's success must be s kind of success that could not be isolate from society. As a result, getting acceptations of society and authorizations is the standard of being successful. In other words, if you want to be successful, you have to make society and authorizations know your strengths and accomplishments, and make they acknowledge your accomplishments. Take Vincent van Gogh for instance, Van Gogh had made a lot of high level paintings in his whole life, but he was not acknowledged by society when he lived. After he died for some time, he became famous all over the world, and any piece of painting worth millions of dollars. Although all paintings was painted, he can not be called being successful when he was alive, because he could not even had a good meal everyday.
Second, nowadays people have to do more to make themselves outstanding, if they want to successful. Why? Because there are more challenges and crisis than ever before in this world. The explosion of the population, serious economic crisis, pollutions of environment, exhaustion of the earths natural resources, all of these seriously threaten every person's survival in this world and on earth. So competition becomes more fierce. Take finding jobs as an example, companies not have to consider how to find employees, because the jobs are too few. Considering excellent people are also too much, if you want to get your ideal job, you have to show how you are excellent as much as possible in order to make the interviewers think you are the best one in the elites. To some extent, the interview is not a test for the abilities but the test of how to show your abilities. The person who can show his abilities most and make the interviewers acknowledge him can be successful in the competition.
However, we should emphasize on improving our abilities at the same time we are thinking how to make us seems to have more abilities. Because it is to difficult to be successful nowadays, a lot of people use bad ways to make them successful. For example, even some famous professors and people with high status forge confirmations of achievements to make society and authorizations acknowledge them. These things bring so neglect influences to our society. So we should think more how to be excellent but not just seems to.
In sum, there have been a great difference between today and yesterday. We should not view things in the way as we did before. Considering the competition today, we all have to think how to make society and authorizations acknowledge us and make the goal. |
