Interest . Dreams . Goals

Wenqi Teoh is a girl who has dream and goal; she desires to have an extraordinary life and lives with no worries in her future. Her parents are very much concern about her education. They think that having knowledge is far more important than just having the unrealistic wealth.

            She has a lot of dreams and goals; there are big one and small one. She tries to motivate herself every seconds to keep herself awake of pursuing her dreams. She hopes that she would eventually achieve what she expects to achieve.

She started reading motivational and inspirations books when the first time she went to her friend’s aunt house. She found out that her friend’s aunt reads all sort kinds of books every day before she get to sleep. Started from that day, she reads and buys different self-help and motivational books. The new habit and interest has brought her a different way of perceiving her life and future. She gets motivated whenever she read those books. One of her favourite books is “How to get from where you are to where you want to be?” which written by Jack Canfield. By reading motivational books, she would be able to keep on the right track towards her dreams and goals. There are 25 principles of success that lead her to visualize and pursuit her goal and vision. In pertaining to that, the book would also unleash her mind and the way she set her goal.

This is the book that inspired her most! 

Dreams are considered a vague and unclear goal that people would want to archive in one day. An interesting quote from E.J. Bartek once said that “Having a goal is a state of happiness.” This is apparently very true as there would have not any inducement that made them live with purpose. It is very important to know that how many people have eventually achieved their dreams at the end. Hence, we should not only have a series of great dreams but we have to transform our dreams into a goal with deadline. People work better and more efficient if they were given limited time to accomplish the work. The goals that she has set would make her keep on track of what she is doing and behaving now. Her most priority goal now is to be a Buzan Licensed Instructor before she graduated from bachelor degree. She is passionate in doing mind mapping and she would really want to share and teach this ultimate thinking tool to people around her.

This is one of the Mind map that she has drawn, she uses Mind map on her study and a lot of other usage such as trip planning, event organising and a great tool for brainstorming.

As the saying goes, “success is 1% aspiration and 99% perspiration.” Although perspiration seems playing a heavy part than aspiration, success would have not happened if there were no aspiration. One of her aspiration was came from a secondary school friend who gave her a lot of enlighten on what she should do in future. Hence, in order to achieve her aspiration, she has to put more effort on her studies and explore as much knowledge as she can when she is studying my degree in these three years.   

Design is also another interest that she holds, that's explain why she is taking Graphic Design as elective! She wants to gain knowledge and techniques of design as she has passion and interest in it.
