Act now
Just read some advices given to success in Quora, one said "Nothing happens until you act". I felt quite released. I always have confidence in writing and believe deeply that I have talents in languages (seriously, no kidding). But basically I have done nothing but daydreaming about writing, and once I tried and got a negative feedback, this single result was devastating. And right, I am experiencing one. After reading that I got released and felt lucky, since I have realized my ignorance through this failure and how little I have acted. When I act more, one single result would not have such an huge impact anymore.
Conceptualization
It is hard to define something in life that we take for granted. In my major I have to deal with some concepts like socialization, publics, organizations, ideologies, icons etc., and I hate this conceptualization part. Last month after I have a conversation with HIM about our relationship, I felt so helpless that I could not understand what he said. So when I started writing my thesis I don't feel that confused, since I know there are a hell lot of things in the world which are hard to define, at least I have found definitions of these concepts I have to deal with (Elasmar, 143):
- Knowledge: factual knowledge or information
- Belief: subjective perceptions or opinion, agree or disagree
- Attitude: an affective belief, like or dislike
- Value: are beliefs that are known to be commonly held by a large proportion of a population.
