国家团结?

相信认识我的人都知道,我读的科系只有五个华人。

每次分组做assignment的时候,都会有一个很奇怪的现象,教授会要求华人或者印度人不可以同组,也就是说一组只可以有一个华人或印度人,多一个也不行。

我不禁在想,国民团结就是如此的肤浅而已吗?如果连大学教授都拥有这样的想法的话,难怪国立大学的排行榜会如此不堪入目。实行这种表面团结的手法真的有任何实质的意义吗?对我来说,它更像一种变相的剥削,为什么华人或印度人没有选择组员的自由权利?这种基本的权力竟然会被所谓的团结努力所束缚着,呜呼哀哉啊!

大马独立了半个世纪,竟然会发生焚烧教堂的蠢事,我本身是道教徒,但是当天我看到报道的时候,我真的很愤怒。毁掉别人的宗教场所,是愚昧兼落后的行为!我不禁为大马的前景感到担忧,偏激的行为会否形成一种趋势,没有人可以给予答案。但是可以证明一点,大马实行国家团结的政策是失败的。如果一项政策用了半个世纪都不能达到它的实际效用,一定是什么地方面出了问题。外国人以为大马一片风平浪静,其实里头的暗涌只有大马人民才知道。暗涌基本上不会出现在平民的日常生活中,因为它通常会体现于政客在媒体上的对战里头。这是不是意味说国民团结是被操弄的一项课题?值得大家去深思。

大学是社会栋梁的摇篮手,如果仍然不能摆脱这种肤浅的框架,不明白问题的根源去治标不治本,国家永远只会停在原地。大学里头大家只会喊“Satu Malaysia”,但它实质的意义是什么?大学生了解它吗?人民明白它吗?天知晓。但我知道焚烧教堂事件的确掴了“Satu Malaysia”一巴掌,宗教上的分歧看法在半个世纪之后演变成这种暴力行为,是国家民主倒退的表现。如果政府不大力遏制这种流氓的行为,或者想藉由时间来淡化舆论,大马的前景可真是堪舆了。

Become Everything You Are Capable of Becoming By Brian Tracy

The turning point in my life came when I discovered the law of cause and effect, the great law of the universe, and human destiny. I learned that everything happens for a reason. I discovered that success is not an accident. Failure is not an accident, either. I also discovered that people who are successful in any area usually are those who have learned the cause-and-effect relationship between what they want and how to get it.

Determine Your Personal Growth and Development Values

To realize your full potential for personal and professional growth and development, begin with your values as they apply to your own abilities. As you know, your values are expressed in your words and actions.

You can tell what your values are by looking at what you do and how you respond to the world around you. Your values are the root causes of your motivations and your behaviors.

Clarify Your Personal Growth and Development Vision

Create a long-term vision for yourself in the area of personal growth. Project forward five or ten years and imagine that you are developed fully in every important part of your life. Idealize and see yourself as outstanding in every respect. Refuse to compromise on your personal dreams.

"Relax and allow affirmations to go through your subconscious mind!"

According to whole brain research, you can learn subjects quite rapidly as a result of deep relaxation and music used in a systemized, organized process. Because of this, it is also possible for you to learn new belief systems using the same techniques.

Set Goals for Your Personal Growth and Development

Now take your vision and crystallize it into specific goals. Here is a good way to start. Take out a piece of paper and write down ten goals that you would like to achieve in the area of personal and professional development in the months and years ahead. Write in the present tense, exactly as if you were already the person you intend to be.

Determine exactly what you want to be able to do. Decide who you want to become. Describe exactly what you will look like when you become truly excellent in your field and in your personal life.

Upgrade Your Personal Knowledge and Skills

Set specific measures for each of your goals. If your goal is to excel in your field, determine how you will know when you have achieved it. Decide how you can measure your progress and evaluate your success.

Perhaps you can use as a measure the number of hours you study in your field each week. Perhaps you can measure the number of books you read or the number of audio programs you listen to. Perhaps you could measure your progress by the number of sales you make as the result of your growing skills.

Develop Winning Personal Growth and Development Habits

Select the specific habits and behaviors you will need to practice every day to become the person you want to become. These could be the habits of clarity, planning, thoroughness, studiousness, hard work, determination, and persistence.

Action Exercise

Decide today to develop yourself to the point where you can achieve every financial and personal goal you ever set and become everything you are capable of becoming. Write down your goals and make sure to look at them every day, then ponder ways you possibly achieve these goals.

抉择

大概有两个星期没能好好地睡一觉了,一连三场的比赛,感觉自己的脑快要抽筋了。

所幸比赛终于结束了,也划下一个不错的句点。我和丽燕在中五的时候曾经说过,进了大学肯定不会再参加辩论,因为我们体会过辩论筹备过程的辛酸和痛苦,可是到最后我们还是去打公开赛了。(掴了中五时候的自己一巴掌,= =)

我们找了素心, 组成和丰队(我们三个都是和丰兴中的学生),本以为只是想玩票性质的参与,没有想到成绩比我们预料中的好。

这次比赛幸好有镇宗和俊龙拔刀相助,不然头脑真的会操劳过度。多亏了他们还有学长学姐的帮助,才能过关斩将。

如果你问我喜不喜欢辩论,我会说喜欢。
但我最近真的很多东西要做,所有的东西接踵而来,似乎没有止境的,真的觉得好疲累。
坦白说,最近我比赛比到麻木了,当初喜欢辩论的热情不见了,对于辩论所怀抱的那份特殊的情意结也消失了。

人生的确很多抉择,纵然做出取舍是很难的,但选择还是需要的。我想了很多天,发现其实我最近还有很多地方没有兼顾到的。我的学业,没有时间去理会;我所肩负的责任,因为辩论暂时被搁置下来;我的好朋友,没有时间去联络我们的感情;我应该关心的那个人,被我冷落了。

是时候停下脚步,认真地思考一下,毕竟喜欢和有没有能力去兼顾是两回事。

我应该要有规划,规划自己接下来应该做什么,什么才是自己最想要的生活。

抉择,有必要。但选好之后,就不应该后悔,只能不断地往前跑 ......
