About this Quote

In this quote, Chin-Ning Chu highlights the significance of living an effective life by following one's own course and not being affected by the dreams and expectations of others. She recommends that true success originates from understanding oneself and pursuing one's own passions and goals, rather than trying to satisfy the desires and aspirations of others. This concept challenges the social pressure to adhere and instead motivates people to welcome their distinct identities and carve their own paths towards satisfaction and happiness. By doing so, one can lead a truly effective life that is genuine and satisfying, rather than chasing somebody else's variation of success.
