發表於 : 週六 8月 05, 2017 4:06 pm
Hi, everyone,
This is Gloria. I accidentally watched this video two weeks ago. I was impressed by the lady’s story and got inspired from her. Hope you also like it.
Besides, it’s weekend. To reward our hard work on the weekdays, there will be a singing session at the end of the meeting.
Welcome to the meeting and enjoy it.
Please view the following video.

Questions for discussion
Session 1
1.The speaker said, “I have my dream job. I wake up every day, and I'm so excited to go to work.” Do you also have a dream job now? When did you have a similar feeling since you were born? What’s your dream job?
2.”Success is never really in a straight line. There's always going to be bumps along the way.” Please share your experience or thoughts on this, especially, if possible, share something about your school major or job transition experiences.
3. Were there any people who dominated your life like the speaker’s mom did? How did they do it? Did that work for you? Why or why not? How did you feel in the past and how do you feel now?
4.The speaker said, I loved every minute of it (my childhood) because it prepared me for real life. Looking back, do you think what prepared you for real life?
Session 2
5.Abraham Lincoln once said that the best way to predict the future is to create it. The speaker also believes in creating what she wants. How about you? Do you also believe that? Are you now creating something you want in the future? What is it? And how do you create it?
6.The speaker said, “one day, an opportunity would come and I needed to be ready.” Do you agree with that? Are you also getting prepared for the opportunity? Why or why not?
7.Please try to play the devil’s advocate to challenge the speaker's viewpoints or anything she mentioned in the video.
The following are some points which I think are worth challenging. Or, you can focus on anything else and elaborate your opposite opinions.
(1) Create for what you want, not compete for what you want.
(2) Chances to become an CNN anchor from a receptionist within 4.5 years.
(3) "Get well prepared because one day the opportunity would come." Is it suitable for everyone?
(4) Help another interviewee.....
(5)"Trust your struggle.....have faith that it will all end up being for the greater good."
Does that apply to all people or only apply to people with similar experiences or personalities?
