Help I Suffering From Stupidity and Laziness
-
Say what you will. I may not have graduated, and I still say that I'm pretty much aware of the reality of mechanical engineering. Suffice to say that you don't know enough about me to make such a claim.Originally posted by Cystaire:My friend you are NOT aware of the reality of mechanical engineering.
You haven't even graduated yet.
I know you might see me as naive, but that is not of interest to me.
At the very least I do not depress myself into thinking that everyone out there is an enemy to me. I'm trying to offer you a solution for you to get out of your depressing state; and yet all you do is whine about how you 'suffer from stupidity' and how you 'suffer from laziness'.
Intelligence and effort are relative things; what is smart and hardworking to one is dumb and lazy to another. So how? Can you work non-stop 24/7 so that the whole world will finally start seeing you as intelligent and hardworking?
Which is why I keep telling you: stop comparing yourself to others! I'm asking you to shift your mindset away from those self-destructive tendencies, and yet you still choose to persist having such a mindset!
People here are trying to help you; yet I see that you refuse to help yourself. The only true solution is a paradigm shift in your viewpoint of things; and you still insist in seeing things your way. Continue whining then; you'll find yourself remaining in the very same position you were at the beginning of this thread.
Very well. I've had my say. Good luck to you. -

I was hoping that somebody who has been doing science will come up and we'll have some sort of "blue ocean" discussion.
fudgester, you must feel exasperated about why you can't seem to convince me, but when you actually enter industry one day you will understand what I am talking about. -
Thanks for your concern.Originally posted by TYING:You never know that there are people who are worse off than you. Its considered admirable that you are even a scientist.
Remember, "Let the person perform the Art he loves most". If you are extremely interested in science, you should have more confidence and substitute your negative points with some other aspects. Like creativity?
Also, everyone in this world will have their own expertise, just believe in yourself. Let the others be, they might seem to be in a better position because they have manage to overcome or avoid their weaknesses. Do that too and you will surpass them one day.
Have faith in yourself and i will have faith in you too. Good luck and not dwell on it anymore.
I am not disputing that there are people who are worse off than any of us. But knowing that fact doesn't help. I am saying that if you are doing science, there will be times you feel like the stupidest and laziest person alive.
I know you guys still don't know what I am saying. I agree I shouldn't dwell on this, and should end this discussion. -
hi, i had similar problems with you when i was in the university.
after i grad, i work for various companies and had quite a good progress in my career.
from my point of view, its ok for you to feel "inadequate". but put it as a positive way so that it drives you forward
smart students dont necessarily do well in their career.
because a good worker/enterpreneur need to possess many many other skills rather than just be good a certain topics/subjects/fields.
for example, he has to manage finance, relationship, time-management, risk and so on...
you probably want to become the best in something, but life is fair. if you are super-good in something, like bio-research, you could probably cock-up your other skills.
i am trying to convince myself to change this mindset. it's not easy, especially i grow up in very competitive environment since young. but well, its worth the effort!
good luck! -
yes, there is,Originally posted by Joshua1975:Suffering From Stupidity and Laziness
if there is a cure, let me know....
cure = discipline + attitude.
although this is personal thing, but if you can get someone who you 100% listens to get monitor you. than it will be over in no time and you will be a better person -
No....dont think like that.....
1. There are always people more clever than me.
---> True, definitely there are always people who are more clever, or richer, or more good-looking, or more this and that.
There are also people who are less clever, less rich, less good-looking, less this and that, than you.
So....should you bother about them? Dont waste your attention on that.
Simply focus on yourself and embetter yourself.
2. There are people more dilligent than you.
---> What I find is that you are comparing midnight to 3am. This tells me that you are already hardworking, and in fact you need to take a more balanced life, not only work work work all the time.
Just lead a balanced life, and you will be happy. Life is not only work.

even if im doing wad i like and wanted now, i oso suffer the same problems as you.
its is a very dark and dangerous world sia.
touch no touch will kana eaten up one. -
so stress out..Originally posted by Cystaire:I am a life scientist trainee.
I entered the field a few years before gahmen announce the life science program, so I am not one of the followers.
I suffer from stupidity. Why? Because no matter how much I've read there is always somebody much clever.
I suffer from laziness. Why? Because if I can work until 12 midnight, there is always someone who can work until 3am.
When the world is your competitor, I ask you how can anyone NOT be stupid and lazy?
if the entire Singapore population is like U.. I think all those ITE and some ppl working on DL here and some in Ulu, $$ making Uni all can jump b4 U already!
maybe kids in Primary school can find reason to see the world is your competitor. in that case, they can too jump! -
there will always be someone better than you. and even if you become better than that specific someone you will soon find that there is someone even better than you. never ending one lar.Originally posted by Cystaire:I entered the field a few years before gahmen announce the life science program, so I am not one of the followers.

just find a level that you are happy at and stay there and be glad that you are better than some people.
