How well do you use your brain

Ivan* was a obedient student. He wants to enter good college in order to have a better life. Due to the fact that he's chinese educated, he struggles in understanding what the lecturer is teaching. He have a wonderful memory(while I detest memorizing!!!)

Everyone have education in Malaysia. Statistics will reveal that there is ~96% of the population is literate. However, there is a catch. The gap exist in wealth and mindset.

The rich can afford to send their kids to good schools, while our quality of public schools needs to be improved. For example, one of my family member send her children to private school, while I'm in an 'inferior' public school(which doesn't and shouldn't affect my morale at all). Mindset, can help you win a championship. You need to be in "the zone".

A successful person have a good mindset. A successful person must have mentality of abundance. True, easier said than done. Personally, I hear people around me lamented that prices of goods goes up & so on & so on, while I'm still determined to thrive in hostile environment.

Some people I met feel very disappointed with the fact that they're not as good as someone else. I've learned that most important thing is that you should not compare yourselves with others and you should have your own path.
