The biggest lesson that I have learned in this academic semester is how to compromise.Because not everything will follow our will, we have to compromise in order to make things work.
We always say that changing happens faster than planing. everything is changing; nothing is rigid. That is why we ourselves need to learn how to change accordingly. In fact, compromising is one way of changing.
Compromising does not mean giving up. Instead,we compromise something because we have flexibility and we know how to change things up to meet our goals. Compromising does not mean failure. We compromise because we focus on a big picture, and we know we can succeed in the future by doing so. Compromising does not mean weakness. We compromise because we can pay the cost to do so.
Compromising is a life long process. We compromise in schools in order to have a better education; we compromise in careers in order to fit in organizations; we compromise in relationships so that we can have better understandings of others and have intimate connections.
Compromising is an art. Only people who have great insights, courage, and confidence know how to compromise in the short term and win in the long run.
