BE HONEST“The Answers You Seek Are Already Within You”
There’s Nothing Shameful Admitting that You’re Selfish, Evil,
Arrogant, Innocent, Kind, Narcissistic, Crazy, Lazy, Horny…
It’s Only Shameful When You Can’t Face the Hard Truth
And Do Something About It!
Q1.1 What Must Be Accomplished in the 4 Years of
Uni? (Not Trying or Doing)
I-banker goal, Bed Time Thoughts, “I Want “Helping Youth” to be My Biggest Accomplishment in Uni”
My Story
Q1.2 Why Is It Worth Your Time in AIESEC? Or Does it!?
“ I’m Not Here For Friendship, Pride, Learning or a Better CV. I’m Here Because I Believe What I’m Doing Here is the Best Way to Develop Youth.”
My Story
~TOUGH LOVE TIME~
WHY DO YOU NEED TO KEEP SAYING “BEST” and “ACCOMPLISHMENTS”?
Without Accomplishments, NO ONE WILL GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOU.
You Don’t Have Anything to Prove You Existed. You Don’t Have Anything to Prove You Worked Hard.
People Will Just Think You’re Just Playing. There’s Nothing That You Can Be Proud of After Putting All the Effort. If You Have the Opportunity, Why Not Accomplish Something Big???
If You’re Not the Best,
You Are Not Giving the Biggest Impact to As Much People As You Can. You Are Not Accomplishing The Most.
No One Will Remember You. If You Are Playing the Same Game as Others, Why Not Be the Best
Player???
The Problem with Losers is that They Are OK Being Mediocre.
STOP WRITING BS IN YOUR CV THAT YOU DIDN’T WORK HARD FOR!!! SHAME ON THOSE PEOPLE!!!
Q1.3 If You Were the Best VP/ Manager in AIESEC Internationally, What Would You & Your Team Accomplish After One
Year?(Stakeholders and Results)
I Want to Get the “BEST LC AWARD” to Prove AIESEC-LC-CUHK can go from nearly closing down to the Best Nationally. I Want My Team to Be Proud of What They Can Accomplish and Really Making An Impact. It’s tough but this is what makes it memorable.
My Story
Q1.4 What Knowledge, Skills and Mindset Do You Need to Acquire to
Become THAT Person?
I did transitions with over 20 people. The Best MCPs, The Best LCPs, The Best VPs for my Dept, The Past VPs of My Dept, Read a Lot of Documents from AIESEC . Net, Read a lot of Sales and Marketing related articles, Consolidate what I learnt from previous leaders…
