Linda : Did you know what’s viral in our school?
Arya : I didn’t. What’s that?
Linda : Ah … you’re not well informed. I think it’s important for you to stay informed about what’s happening around and sometimes to engage with different perspectives.
Arya : What do you mean? I truly don’t know the news.
Linda : Well, do you know the proverb ‘Don’t judge a book by its cover’?
Arya : I do. But what’s the problem?
Linda : Recently there’s a video of a boy competing in an illegal motorcycle race. Do you know who the boy is? He is supposed to be Dewa.
Arya : Dewa, the candidate of our OSIS chairperson?
Linda : Indeed!
Arya : How did you get the news?
Linda : I read it on the social media and almost all students talk about it. What’s your opinion?
Arya : I am not sure if the boy is Dewa. So far I know, he is a good boy. Moreover, being a candidate of the OSIS chairperson will make him think twice before doing something stupid
like that.
Linda : So, you think that the news is fake, don’t you?
Arya : I feel that, but I don’t know the truth. It’s better for us to check and recheck the news. We should not blindly accept everything we hear or read online. Viral news can often be blown out of proportion. It’s hard to know what’s real and what’s not.

Here is a post from dr. Mark Hyman, MD. “So it’s not your genes that really determine what happens, it’s what you do to those genes. It’s the food you eat, it’s exercise, it’s stress, it’s
your thoughts, your relationship, your feelings, the toxins, all of it washing over your genes. And the good news is that your genes aren’t your destiny. The single biggest factors driving our health and determining our lifespan are our daily behaviors–things like sleep, and stress management, self-care, connecting with others, community, and finding purpose and meaning. What’s one aspect you’d like to get better at? Is it that you want to spend more time with your friends? Or is it that you want to find a way to manage your stress? Comment below.”

Here is a post from Leon Ho.
“Fear is part of human nature. As an entrepreneur, I used to face the fear of failure. My ego and identity became intertwined with my work. I tried as much as I could to avoid failure and mistakes. When things didn’t go as
I planned, I completely shut down. Fortunately, I overcame this unhealthy relationship with fear of failure, and I believe that you can, too.
Fear of failure will cause us to avoid potentially harmful situations, but it will also keep us from reaching our full potential. It keeps us from trying, creates self-doubt, stalls progress, and may lead us to go against our morals. It can
be so strong that avoiding failure eclipses the motivation to succeed.”

Be prepared to ask yourself some tough-love
kind of questions because like I always say, this
