When people become good at doing the things they like to do, they have found themselves.

　　Many young people are good at doing things they don't like, many other young people would like to do something that they are not good at. Also many do not think they are good at anything and don't know what they would like to do. None of them are happy.

　　It is impossible to decide whether one likes something until one has tried it. Trying something new is important.

　　Give each idea a fair chance. If you have decided to try out something new, also decide how long you will stick to it, so you can make a fair decision.

　　The best thing to judge is not the anal goal but the work it takes you to reach the goal Almost everybody would like to be highly skilled in something. But becoming highly skilled at anything calls for a great deal of time and work.

　　Finding oneself means not only discovering what one is good at and what one likes, it also means discovering what one is not good at and what one doesn't like.

　　So trying something and failing can have its good side. It tells you that you are not fit for that particular area and should not use it as you goal.
