It inspires me when I read about those who are active in society. They don’t have the attitude held by so many: “I’m going to change the world, but I’ll start tomorrow.” The people who inspire me are those who are already out there. They don’t do it to get attention but they do it because they want to be the change they wish to see. They know that young people’s opinions are seen as whispers, but they understand that whispers create voices. Even if their project wasn’t a 100% success, they tried and they gave it a go.
Bize senin için önemli, nasıl farkına varacağın ve katılabileceğin bir şey söyle.
Many issues matter to me. When I was 12, my family moved from the city into a country area and it was a culture shock! I wasn’t happy so I decided I could change what I didn’t like or at least give it a go. I started looking at local issues, and then I became aware of national and international issues, becoming involved in them also. Just a few of the issues that concern me nationally are: youth depression, and the fact that 1 in 5 young people in Australia suffer from depression every year. Internationally, there are a lot of issues: a key issue would be the lack of aid sent to Sudan, where an approximate 1.2 million people are displaced. Children in conflict are another issue, which concerns me greatly. When I am older, I would like to work overseas to try and help solve these injustices.
İyi bir lideri neyin oluşturacağı hakkında bakış açını paylaş.
I believe a good leader is a person who knows when they need to take charge. At the same time, they can let other people take lead and work with them to achieve the common goal. Leaders must be tough enough to fight but tender enough to cry. Leaders must be human enough to make mistakes, but also humble enough to admit them. Leaders must be adventurous enough to get knocked down but resilient enough to get back up and keep on moving. The world needs leaders!!!
Sence TakingITGlobal gayelerini başarmanda yardımcı olabilir mi? Yoksa çoktan oldu mu?Bize nasıl olduğunu söyle.
I have been a member of TIG since a young age. It has allowed me to think globally and still act globally. There are a lot of issues I would have been still unaware of if it wasn’t for TakingITGlobal. I believe that ignorance is blinding; we need to know what is going on in the world because awareness is the thing that can enable us to act! What is my goal? Well that would be to make sure I am making a difference to someone’s life, great or small. May sound like a beauty pageant, but it’s true! I live in Australia and I am so lucky! I go to school, party, eat and have the freedom to speak out; to give this life or even a bit of it to someone who has missed out would be truly rewarding and TIG gives me the inspiration and the motivation to do so! TIG rocks my socks!!!
