Discuss the Novel Project

When i saw Alias Grace in the Chapter, i was so afraid of that i can not finish reading, because it is too thick. However,I felt a great sense of achievement when I finished it.

The most enjoyable phases of novel project is the written review, because it gives me the opportunity to looking back on the story. The attractive plot of novel is associated easily and very impressive.

The most learning phases of novel project is the presentation. I was so sensitive while our group was presenting. It is not good and i will improve myself and make it better. But in that time, i felt i was not respected, because i prepare the notes and practice seriously. Why someone was laughing when i was in the presentation? Is it funny or too stupid? I saw other classmates quite concentrative, even I told too much detail. Maybe it is not laughing at me, like teacher said, maybe it is for fun by his own cell-phone. Anyway, i am learning try to not focus this kind of thing. Additionally, with this experience, i am going to make the summary shorter next time.

Video Summary

Richard St. John mentioned that there are 8 factors that contribute people to become succesful which include passion, work, good, focus, push, serve, ideas and persist.

I agree with his point. He discribes that nothing comes easily, people need do hard working and all the good or perfect things are no magic which need practice, practice, prectice. People is difficult to push themselves because a lot of them are quite lazy. Therefore the mothers are enable to push their children to accomplish their ideals. But now, we live abroad, nobody to push us, which must push ourselves to manage our time reasonable and finish our work on time.

I also think that without ideas, it will be no motivator in the beginning. Because you start with your interesting idea which stimulate the process of research. Finally, these espacts are all related to persist because no persist, you'r going to be failure in the middle of your pursuit of success.
