In some cultures, children are often told that they can achieve anything if they try hard enough. What are the advantages and disadvantages of giving children this message?
Each culture in the world are very unique and to be treated equally. In some society, they teach their offsprings to
work
hard or to try hard to attain new heights. This
kind of attitude is very much important for one's success. In my opinion, there are many advantages in this
comparing to negligible disadvantage.
First
of all, to succeed in any field we need to work
hard for it. For instance
, consider a post-graduate in science gets a job in supply chain field, Though he won't have any basic knowledge about the field, he will still attain success out of repeated trial and errors. If you keep doing the same thing again and again you can attain it. As per many cultures or many religions in the world,there is nothing which cannot be achieved. For example
, consider learning the toughest language such
as Chinese or Arabic. Constant training to learn it will make us speak that language one day.
On the other hand
, some people feel that in spite of all the hard work
they cannot get a certain thing. Here, I feel that though they wish for something but lack of perseverance and hard work
make them fail miserably. In my point of view, a thing which was done without concentration and hard work
is a complete waste of time.In addition
, however
,we work
hard we cannot achieve unrealistic tasks such
as taking all the water out from the sea or turning clouds into some other colour. Instead
of wasting time on something where we don't have interest we could divert our attention on other things. In the name of hard work
,we cannot lose our precious time on something which is not happening.
To conclude my argument, our goals should be realistic and achievable. Hard work
with such
goals is what all the cultures though us.Submitted by ajay92jj on
