Seeing cases heightening instead of declining is worrying and sad despite all the lockdowns. Too many lives and livelihoods were impacted.
Many people lose their loved ones, jobs, means, relationships and even themselves. Many of us couldn't meet our family and loved ones who don't stay under one roof for months and some even a year or more. It's affecting all of us in some way or another.
This is a challenging time for every parties that try to continue living. Everyone hardship will be different. Let's not disregard that all of us have different challenges and journeys in life. Never discriminate.
During these trying times, reach out if you need help, in any form. Even just for a chat, it may help. We need to be stronger than ever. We need to try our best to overcome this hurdle.
This is a time where we all want to survive and do our best for our family. Don't stay idle, do something. Work on something. Stay strong, find ways or help to keep you stay positive.
Take this time to change the way we see and do things. Keep on improving ourselves in terms of attitude, acquiring new knowledge and skills.
Discover what you're good at or can be good at, learn, experiment, experience. Keep on learning. Learn from failures too. This may help us in the long run. It takes time. Be patient. Have faith. Give your best. Never give up. You can do this🙌❤
Life is short, take your vaccination and let's support each other in every form that we can💪

positive learning attitude 在 Facebook 的最佳貼文
We travelled +-11,000 kilometres to visit our University. Remembering every little and big moment, it was so worth it! 🥰❤
Working while studying is very challenging. You just need to be extra disciplined, persevere and be willing to sacrifices so many things (besides financials), including your time, sleep, outings, having fun and even important decisions that involve yourselves, family and friends.
It is tough, hectic, demanding and crazy at times. You just need to work it out during the years, and when you completed it, it will be an incredible achievement (the struggles bae, the struggles).
For me, education is an important investment. I love studying and learning. If you truly focus on the learning process, there are many things you can learn during the journey of you completing an education (any learning form). It also helps to improve the way you think and behave.
I'm glad that I found a life partner who also loves learning and had the chance to pursue our further education together. To more exciting learning journey ahead. 💙
No matter what are your goals and dreams, keep on learning because knowledge is power. Read books/ebooks and news, watch documentaries/informative videos/series, listen to podcasts, do online learnings and certifications, study languages, pick up a positive hobby or commit something valuable that improves your knowledge, skills and also attitude. It is boring and not cool only if you think it is. So scrap that mindset, because learning is fun and gives you so many benefits and opportunities! 🙌
There are always things to learn in life. It's never too late to learn. Keep learning and keep growing. 💪

positive learning attitude 在 國立臺灣大學 National Taiwan University Facebook 的最讚貼文
【國立臺灣大學109學年度畢業典禮 致詞代表 資訊工程學系韓哈斯】
Student Address, National Taiwan University Commencement 2021
International student Seth Austin Harding from Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering

校長、教授、以及在螢幕前的各位同學,大家好。非常感謝臺大給我這個機會。我是韓哈斯,來自美國華盛頓特區。我會以自身的真實經驗出發,來跟大家分享臺大帶給我的收穫。
我當初為什麼選擇來台灣求學呢?我小時候非常喜歡看武打片,然後我十歲的時候去看了一部電影叫做「功夫熊貓」。這部電影成為了我最喜歡的電影,主角「阿波」的故事跟我的故事很像。我看完了之後就決定要開始學功夫,所以去了「美國武術學院」。那個時候我每天都聽旁邊的人講中文,到了高中我就決定開始學中文。當時我遇到了一位貴人,她是從台北到美國來教書的中文老師,她教的課是我當時最喜歡的課,我每天去她的教室跟好朋友練習。到了高中畢業時,我是全高中中文最好的非母語人士。同時,我第二喜歡的課程是電腦科學,那時候我是程式能力數一數二的學生。後來在成功錄取夢寐以求的學校:臺灣大學之後,我感到雀躍不已,因為我既可以繼續學習中文,也可以持續在世界頂尖的學府中,往電腦科學的方向精進自我。
不過老實說,當我回顧大一的時期,我也曾迷失自我。雖然我修了很多很多的中文課,但是我那時只聽得懂大概一半的課程內容。跟大家對美國人的印象不同,我其實很害羞,也很害怕舉手提問,我甚至不太敢參與社交,所以當時朋友也很少。我開始想家,也變得有一點憂鬱。那時籃球是我唯一的紓壓方式。
但更不幸的是,我在打籃球時弄傷了我的前十字韌帶,做了兩次手術,需要一年半才能恢復。許多的負面情緒壓得我喘不過氣。我被困在人生的低谷,不知如何是好。我覺得我的中文不夠好,我也被診斷出失眠跟ADHD,另外,美國高中的數學太簡單了,來這邊不夠用。種種壓力讓我足不出戶,找不到自己的人生方向。後來,我向臺大心輔中心以及我的心理醫師尋求協助,然後我也開始跟系上有更多互動。有一位教授叫徐宏民跟我說,"Never give up",雖然那時候我覺得這句話太過於簡化了我的問題,不過,在我仔細思考了一個禮拜之後,我下定決心,發誓不讓自己被這些事擊敗。我決定要克盡全力,認真做好每件事。這是我人生的轉捩點,我開始變得異常自律。當時廖世偉教授和洪士灝系主任帶我進入它們的研究室鑽研學術。這重燃了我對資訊工程的熱忱,提醒了我當初會愛上這個領域的原因。我開始研究人工智慧以及區塊鏈,也開始跟其他系上同學交朋友,一起成立臺大人工智慧應用社NTUAI。NTUAI現在是校內頗具規模的技術研究社團,致力於推廣人工智慧給任何對該領域有熱忱的學生。歡迎加入NTUAI,可以掃描我們的QR CODE。
最近,由於疫情的緣故,我已經一年半沒回美國了。但是沒關係,因為我已經找到了我第二個家。我很愛臺大,以及台灣的人事物。雖然我經歷了人生的低潮,但這裡的一切總是給我滿滿的祝福與協助。最後,我想送給大家「功夫熊貓」裡的一句台詞: "You just need to believe"。只要用樂觀的態度去面對困難,就有能力改變自己,甚至改變身旁所愛的人。就像阿波的父親說的,"心誠則靈,只要你相信,點石就能成金。根本沒有什麼秘笈。只有你。"謝謝大家。

==============================

President, professors, and classmates, I'm very honored to be here. Thank you to NTU for giving me this opportunity. My name's Seth Austin Harding, and I'm from the D.C. metropolitan area. I'm going to tell a real story that's personal but that's relatable and what I see as the real me.
What motivated and guided me to take my undergraduate studies in Taiwan? When I was very young, I really loved watching kung fu movies, and when I was 10 years old, I went to the theater to watch "Kung Fu Panda". This became my favorite movie as I felt like the story of the main character Po was one to which I could very much relate. After watching this movie, I decided that I wanted to start learning kung fu, so I went to the United States Wushu Academy. At the time, I began hearing Mandarin on a daily basis, so when I was in high school, I decided to begin formally studying Chinese. It ended up being my Chinese teacher from Taipei who was my favorite teacher who taught my favorite class, so I decided I'd hang out in the Chinese classroom every day and practice lots. By the time graduation came around, I had attained the highest proficiency in Chinese among any non-native speaker in my school. My second favorite class was computer science, and I ended up attaining among the best coding skills in my school. After getting accepted to the school of my dreams -- National Taiwan University -- I felt honored, humbled, and excited; I could now spend time at among the world's finest universities studying Chinese and at the same time advancing my knowledge of computer science.
But when I look back at my freshman year, to be honest with you, I didn't know what I was doing. Despite having taken very many Chinese classes, when I went to the NTU lectures, I understood only about half of what the teachers were saying. Contrary to most people's impressions of an American, I was actually too shy to raise my hand, to ask questions, or to even meet with teachers after class, so I had very few friends at the time. I started to become homesick and depressed. At that time, I found that basketball was the only way I knew of relieving my stress. However, while playing basketball, I had torn my ACL and it would take two surgeries and a year and a half in time to fully recover. At this point, I felt caught between a rock and a hard place. In fact, this was the lowest point of my life, and I didn't know what to do. I felt like my Chinese wasn't good enough, I had been diagnosed with insomnia and ADHD, and I felt like the math taught in America was too simple to allow for me to keep up with my classmates. I was under immense pressure, and at this time, I lost any sense of purpose or direction. Later on, I went to seek help from NTU counseling, from my psychiatrist, and from my department. I reached out to Professor Winston Hsu from CSIE, and he told me this: "Never give up"; it was such an oversimplified way to approach such a complex series of problems, I had thought. However, I pondered these words intensely for one week, and by the end of that week, I had made a firm decision. This would NOT be another example of me giving up. I decided to go all out, to work diligently and passionately on all tasks at hand. This was the turning point of my life; I started to discipline myself to a very high degree. At this time, I met my then-to-become advisors Professor Shih-Wei Liao and Professor Shih-Hao Hung and entered their labs to begin research. Finally, the passion that I had for computer science that I had previously held in high school was kindled again, and I was finally reminded why I loved this field. I began my research life in blockchain and AI, and at the time I entered the lab, I also began creating NTUAI. NTUAI is now a large and highly successful NTU club that is dedicated to the research and public understanding of AI. Welcome one and all to join us; please scan our QR code here.
For a year and a half I haven't returned to America because of covid. But not to worry; I have found my second home, away from home. I love it here in NTU and I cherish all of the things I've had the privilege to experience in Taiwan. I've gone through the most difficult of struggles in my life here, but I've also had the most fortunate and blessed of experiences. To conclude, I'd like to quote a line from "Kung Fu Panda": "You just need to believe". As long as you are willing to adopt an optimistic attitude in facing challenges and hardships, you may become a positive force in changing the lives of those around you as well as your own life. It all depends on how you view it; just like what Po's father says, "there is no secret ingredient. It's just you." Thank you, everyone.

positive learning attitude 在 Quynh Huong Le Do Youtube 的精選貼文
Quỳnh's Share #24: 12 điều nên biết về Nghiệp - QHLD #82
[12 THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT KARMA]
1. KARMA MEANS ACTION. Nghiệp chính là Hành động của bạn.
Nghiệp vận hành trên Nguyên tắc Vàng: “Điều gì bạn đã làm trong quá khứ hoặc đang làm trong hiện tại với kẻ khác sẽ được trả lại trên chính con người bạn trong tương lai.
[Karma works on the modified Golden Rule: “What you have done in the past and are doing now to others will be done to you in the future.”]
2. KARMA IS CAUSE AND EFFECT. Nghiệp là Nhân - Quả.
“Bạn gieo gì gặt nấy” và “Ném đi cái gì nhận về cái ấy”, hai câu này sẽ giúp bạn học cách yêu thương kẻ khác (để còn được nhận về yêu thương, chứ oan oan tương báo đời nào mới chấm dứt).
[“As you sow, so shall you reap” and “What goes around comes around” helps you learn how to love.]
3. KARMA BEGINS AND ENDS IN LOVE. Nghiệp khởi đầu và kết thúc đều bằng tình yêu thương.
Nghiệp dạy bạn cách mang tình yêu thương vào bất kỳ một hoàn cảnh xấu nào để hoá giải các 'ác nghiệp', tạo nên các ‘thiện nghiệp’.
[Karma teaches you how to bring more love into any ‘bad’ situation to create ‘good karma’.]
4. KARMA APPLIES TO EVERYONE EQUALLY. Nghiệp áp vào mọi người một cách bình đẳng.
Hãy biết rằng Nghiệp luôn luôn mang đến mọi sự công bằng. Điều này sẽ giải phóng bạn khỏi cảm giác tức giận, buồn khổ, tổn thương hoặc tiêu cực về bất kỳ điều gì.
[Knowing karma always creates justices frees you from being angry, sad, hurt, or ‘negative’ about anything.]
5. KARMA = WHAT YOU AGREE TO DESERVE. Nghiệp = Những gì bạn xứng đáng nhận lãnh (cả tốt cả xấu).
Để hóa giải nghiệp bạn cần chấp nhận mọi điều xứng đáng xảy đến với mình, dẫu tốt dẫu xấu, bằng cách chuyển hóa các vấn đề của cuộc sống mình theo hướng yêu thương nhiều hơn.
[To transcend karma you need to agree to deserve more by resolving your life’s issues to know more love.]
6. KARMA = FOCUS-ATTITUDE-ATTENTION. Nghiệp = Tập trung – Thái độ - Sự lưu tâm.
Bạn sẽ đạt được những gì bạn xứng đáng đón nhận thông qua sự tập trung vào suy nghĩ, cảm xúc, và hành động của bạn.
[You get what you agree to deserve through the focus of your thoughts, emotions, and actions.]
7. KARMA IS ABOUT TEACHING. Nghiệp là để dạy ta những bài học.
Để chữa lành nghiệp, khi nhìn vào các vấn đề, hãy tìm cho ra những bài bạn cần học, và hoan hỉ chấp nhận nó.
[To heal your karma, seek out the lessons you must learn and come into agreement with doing so.]
8. KARMA IS ABOUT LEARNING. Nghiệp là để học.
Thứ duy nhất đáng gọi là lỗi lầm là khi bạn không rút kinh nghiệm được gì từ những lỗi lầm bạn đã gây ra trong quá khứ (Và dĩ nhiên, trong trường hợp này, bạn sẽ có cơ hội… được trải nghiệm thêm lần nữa, cho đến khi nào bạn ‘học hỏi’ được bài đó mới thôi!)
[The only true error is to fail to learn from your mistakes (of course, you will get another chance).]
9. KARMA CHALLENGES YOU TO CHANGE. Nghiệp thách thức bạn phải thay đổi.
Nghiệp có thể được thay đổi. Nó có thể được hóa giải khi bạn chọn mang yêu thương/từ bi vào mỗi tình huống, hoàn cảnh. Nói nôm na, câu này mang nghĩa: Dùng thương để hóa giải mọi sự.
[Karma can be changed. It can always be transcended when you choose to bring more love in the situation.]
10. KARMA ALWAYS COMES DUE OVER TIME. Nghiệp sẽ đến đòi đúng lúc.
Cho dù mất cả ngàn năm hay chỉ vài giờ là tới ‘lúc nghiệp tới đòi’, thì nghiệp trước sau gì cũng đến, tạo thế cân bằng cho lực bạn đưa ra và phản lực trả về với bạn.
[Whether it takes thousands of years or just a few hours to be realized, karma will be balanced.]
11. KARMA WORKS BY INTENTION. Nghiệp vận hành trên thứ bạn chủ tâm làm.
Nghiệp sẽ ‘xử’ bạn từ chính những gì bạn chủ ý trong lòng khi bạn phát ra ý nghĩ – lời nói – hay hành động mà bạn đã làm.
[What intention was deep inside your heart when you thought-spoke-acted is how karma judges you.]
12. KARMA LEADS TO DHARMA. Nghiệp đưa dẫn tới Pháp.
Pháp: chính là những nguyên tắc bất di bất dịch của cuộc sống.
Nghiệp luôn đưa bạn đến số phận xứng đáng nhất dành cho bạn (sau khi bạn đã lĩnh hội được tất cả những bài học cần học bên trên), gọi là Pháp: một đời sống có mục đích, có chí hướng và có tỏ ngộ nhiều điều hay lẽ phải.
[Karma is always leading you to your best destiny which is Dharma: a life of purpose and enlightment.]
[Gốc tiếng Anh: healpastlife.com]
