2. What are three most important things that means success to you now? Why?
+ I passed the entrance exam to the university. I think this is my first success, by studying hard
for the exam, I have received a result equivalent of my efforts.
+ Adapting to a novel independent life. As a freshmen away from home, I have to live alone in
a new place to study and work part-time. Everything became difficult and confusing for me, I
had to balance myself for everything in life. When I have done that, I assume it my second
success.
+ Changing and gradually developing yourself. I have been changing about mentality, emotion
and cognition. I cultivate, learn new knowledge and build skills for myself. Keep a progressive
spirit and attitude, realizing my orientations and ambitions.
3. When was the first time you felt successful?
That's when I folded the paper star. I can fold paper cranes, paper lotuses, paper boats but I
can’t make paper stars even though I have been instructed many times. I practiced it over and
over again, and finally I made it. My feelings at that time only one word to describe is
WONDERFUL!
4. Are goals necessary to achieve success?
Of course! Setting goals is vitally important for everyone. Goals are a great way to hold
ourselves accountable, even if we fail. Setting goals and working to achieving them helps us
define what we truly want in life. Setting goals also helps us prioritize things. Especially, setting
goals can help us live the life we truly want to live.
5. What are your educational goals?
My educational goal is “develop patience to achieve your goals”. Being patient can help you
realize that consistent reflection and hard work can produce successful outcomes. Many goals
that you need to reach often take time and patience can help you continually produce excellent
work.
6. What are your career goals?
My career goal is “become an expert in my field”. If you can prove yourself as an expert, you’ll
have more earning power and become more of an asset to your employer. Becoming an expert
in a particular field makes you most helpful in “fact-finding, problem-solving, or understanding
of a situation” that constructs significance and high level for you.
7. What are your financial goals?
My financial goal is “starting a business”. Business needs a large financial resource. Determining
the goal to use the financial is really necessary and important. The goals will often easier to
reach your goals if you identify them in advance.
8. How important is a good education to being successful?
Education develops human personality, thoughts, dealing with others and prepares people for
life experiences. Education allows you to turn your dreams into a reality. It helps you gain
personal control of your life. It gives you confidence and staying power. Education is a mind-
expanding gift that can broaden your horizons and enrich your life. A person with a higher
education will be easily qualified compared to a person without an extended education.
Education is the reason our world is the way it is toda, and that is why education is important.
9. Is good parenting an essential ingredient of success?
I don’t think so… Success is achieved by the efforts, work and study of an individual. It is formed
on the basis of defining certain goals, determination and perseverance. So, success doesn't
depend on good or bad parenting.
10. Do you have to be lucky to be successful?
NO, because luck is not the only factor and completely depending on it is a mere waste of time
and opportunity at hand. To achieve success, you need to have talent, skills, hard work and the
right strategies used at the right time.
11. What role does money play in becoming successful?
Money is essential in life, but not for success. Success includes many other factors like job
satisfaction, peace of mind, healthy relationship... If money is required for success in life, then
all the rich people have succeeded already and there is no room for others to succeed.
12. Why is money the most common way of judging success?
Because money is defined as survival at the most basic level. If you don't have money, you can't
even afford simple things like food, shelter… So, naturally, money has become the most
common way of judging success.
