Hey Madison! Thanks for the kind comment!

by the way, starting my consulting job (first job) next week!! thanks for the tips:)

Valid point, there’s definitely an element of luck involved with everything. A lot of these lessons are nuanced, I used to have a much stronger victim mentality so I would attribute my failures to just being “unlucky” when in reality there were things I could have done better. My goal is to push people to develop an ownership mindset earlier vs complaining about their misfortunes. Best of luck with your consulting job!

The types of goals you’re referring to are a bit different than his

Thanks for the comment! I agree that accountability as outside feedback can be very constructive, which is why I mentioned it’s ok to tell a small set of folks who will support you and give honest feedback. I do however think a lot of people tend to try and get some form of validation often through social media, and while for some this may not affect their achievement if that goal, my younger self was guilty of this.

Thanks for voicing your disagreements, I take no offense and appreciate your honesty! A few thoughts here: 1. I agree black swan events and accidents are out of our control, but when it comes to accomplishments/goals I don't prescribe to the belief that we have zero influence - if that is true, then why should anyone try to work hard at all? The sentiment I'm trying to convey is for people to take greater ownership of their life situation and is targeted towards folks who complain vs take action, not so much telling a disabled person that they "deserve" to be disabled. 2. My audience is majority American, but your point is valid. 4. Placing 100% of your identity on any 1 thing is not just an Asian thing, I'd argue any ambitious person who spends most of their time working / thinking about something would be susceptible to this. Looking within oneself is easier said than done - as a student you often don't have the necessary life experience to decide for yourself what your passions and principles are, and so you look at what society prescribes to guide your thinking. 5. "Learning who you are and developing that" is a bit vague and I think is another way of saying that people should just decide what they truly want and focus on growing (i.e. changing) that aspect of themselves. What if I grew up overweight and decided at 18 that I wanted to live a more healthy life? If that requires a shift in self identity so that I adopt healthy habits, then so be it. Nothing wrong with change - if you aren't changing, you aren't learning anything new. I think we actually are on the same page here.
