The picture jumping into mysight is fairly compelling. In this cartoon , after graduation, ahost of graduates may face diverse choices , ranging frompostgraduate entrance exam to study abroad to job-hunting and so on. But when approaching a junction, which direction should onechoose ? The caption, summarizing the message conveyed by thiscartoon in a couple of words, reads “choice” This picture inspiresme hugely.
The cartooniststrives to bring home to us a single clear message: making choicematters much for a person’s success. Stated in another way, a folkwould be permanently locked out of the league of successful elitesif he or she lacks the awareness of choice. To be more specific, onthe basis of self-evaluation and development goal in theforeseeable future , different folks possess different options.
From my ownperspective, option is truly among the most important of elementsthat drive individuals to success. Losing sight of the crucialimportance of option would be a major obstacle to one’s success.Meanwhile, when making every option , we are supposed to takeself-evaluation and interest into consideration. On a broaderlevel, a persistent atmosphere of placing a high value oncultivating of making options is sorely needed. Only in this waycan we embrace a brighter future.
