Things don't have to change the world to be important -Steve Jobs. People assume that just because something they do is small it isn't important. Just because something doesn't effect the world around you doesn't mean its not important. Everyone has their own values, and everyone has their own ideas that are important to them. Ones goals are important to that specific person and that's all that should matter to that person no matter what others might say. People are capable of doing great things and accomplishing much but they cant let the fact that by assuming that it might not "help the world" stop you from pursuing it. If you find something important to you then pursue it and don't let others tell you that it is not important. You never know if it will change the world later. Everyone has their interests and goals. Some people will always be there to try and bring you down and tell you your goals aren't important to the world. That is no excuse to stop. Throw that person out of your life and pursue your dream anyway. It may not even have to be a dream it can be a simple task. "Simple tasks" automatically get people thinking that it's not important. Everything happens for a reason and everything you do and learn will effect your future. Work hard to achieve goals. No matter how small something may seem to you just remember it does not have to change the world to be important to you.

I agree that everyone should be able to pursue their own dream whether small or big but it won’t change the world. I f someone wants to change the world well they must do something big not small. Yes it may be important to them but what if it doesn’t matter to anyone else. In order for an idea or goal to succeed it must be considered and accomplished and of course successful. What is the point of an idea if it doesn’t affect anyone but that person? In order to make a change to impact the world the idea or goal must reach the stars.
ReplyDeleteIt is true that many people do not pursue their goals or dreams because they think it will not be revolutionary or life changing. (I know this from personal experience) I agree with what you are saying that they should pursue whatever it is that interests them, for we only have one life and if we do not take chances then we are rejecting every opportunity we have to make a difference. Whether we make a difference or not shouldn't worry us so much. What matters is that we tried and if we failed, then it has made us stronger.
ReplyDeletei completly agree you dont always have to have a mind set on your goals to accomplish them and just because it doesnt change the world doesnt mean it isnt important because it cahnged who you are and it may have changed someone elses life with it as well and maybe the world still goes round and a moment wasnt paused but it does make it very important and it helps out alot with who you are and who you want to become.
ReplyDeleteI personally see my actions as not affecting the world but affecting my life. If people were more interested in actually bettering their lives instead of always trying to change the world in order for it to conform to their views everyone's lives would be easier. That isn't to say, though, that we don't people out there with dreams of world peace and a world without hunger because one of these days one of them will succeed. Their actions may affect those that will come after them and maybe, one day, their goals may be accomplished.
