Everyone has their own justice, you can't decide whether they're right or wrong so easily.

to be a NEET ( Not in Education, Employment or Training ) or to be a successful human with successful carrier ?

I want to be a successful person with an excellent career, just like I said in my bio, once I have a stable life and earn lots of money, I want to help out not just my family but also other people achieve their dreams, I'll participate in Social Development Associations, pick a few scholars and help them finish their studies if they can't afford their lifetime education.That's one of my ambitions in life. ^_^

And regarding about globe94's opinion.....

Quote:* but if u also lack hardwork.. then you're just a smart person who's lazy to do things alone.
* if a person is hardworking, he will have the Will & initiative to study..to become smart.
* he can reach the level of knowledge of a smart person without loosing his hardworking trait

I don't have the habit to contradict someone's opinion on a certain topic but you've awakened my alter ego that likes to debate.........

1. you have a point about the first one, but that trait is not called hardwork, it's what people call a "human will", the words hardworker and will are two different words with different meanings.

Hardworker - one who is industrious and diligent in carrying out tasks or duties
Will - The mental faculty by which one deliberately chooses or decides upon a course of action, so if you don't have a "will" to become a hardworker,then you're just a smart but lazy person.

2. My contradiction about the second phrase - My point about the smarts being the foundation of being a hardworker is, the smart and hardworker trait don't work in both ways, because hardwork comes from a spark of interest and curiosity that comes from a signal from the human brain and sends it to the human stimuli,and with that signal, it develops a human will that creates a sense of dilligence to an individual, here's a situation, a person draws an object in a piece of paper, after he finishes his masterpiece, he showed the drawing to his parents and praised him for his work, after feeling a sense of accomplishment and someone believes on his talent to draw,then it triggers a chemical reaction inside the brain that compells him to become an artist in the future, as long as that positive energy is being fed to his consciousness, it will keep him in a state of positive drive to work hard and pursue his dreams no matter what the circumstances may become.I want to discuss it within five more paragraphs but I recalled that you don't like to read long messages so I'll stop on this point.

3. And the third phrase is just a cliche that only happens in animes and movies, we are talking about reality here, if it really does occur in real life and if all people really are industrious in terms of studying various knowledge fields,most of the people around the world would have already found a solution for all of the world's problems like world hunger and climate change by now and a potent vaccine for AIDS would be commonplace in every household by now because the process for making the vaccine is like child's play for all the people,but no one has come up with those innovations as of today because only a handful of people has the time and resources to come up with a solution and I bet almost 95% percent of the world's total population don't even have the time for those either because they have their own problems to deal with let alone having the will of becoming curious about various things and sadly people's preferences and habits changes as they grow older, so even if people have that hard working trait with a strong will to study, it won't be able to reject what their genetical life pattern tells them like, in 25 years a certain person was an artist then a year later that person suddenly changes his mind to become a sculptor then as years pass by, he tends to forget the skills he learned in his previous years before he bacame a sculptor due to overexperience on his current job, he has to re-learn the process of becoming an artist all over again, so even if someone is industrious in terms of studying, he may reach a level of a smart person, but it's not permanent unlike a natural born intelligent person since the person with a smarts that came from books and research alone eventually forgets most of the information he retains in his memory because people like those tends to become burdened with problems as years pass by and as they grow older.

Sorry big bro globe94 another long statement coming at you
