MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH
I wish a very good day to Puan Anita and to all my friends of M08J.
Today I am going to share with all of you a motivational quote that I found really interesting and this quote is picked from a very popular movie and also one of the blockbuster movies of 2008 which is Kung Fu Panda.
The quote that I chose is, “Yesterday is a history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a GIFT. That is why it is called present.”
Ladies and gentlemen,
The meaning of this quote is we must appreciate what we are having right now. Maybe person that we loved most or maybe things that very valuable to us and might be the times that are priceless than anything else. There are a lot of things that belong to us until we can not list down them all but we still unsure do we really appreciate them as we are supposed to.
For instance, do you think you really appreciate times? Do you use your times wisely and beneficially? Sometimes, most of us always regret the times that already gone. We always felt how good it is if we can repeat times. And we can sacrifice anything to turn back the times. But still, times cannot be repeated.
For students like us, we always narrow our mind by think that the best way to spend our times is by studying. Maybe we are supposed to balance our time to do our homework or to do revisions. But, we must remember that we do not need to do these for 247. There are a lot of things than studying.
Members of the class,
Let’s close our eyes for a while and think carefully how we manage our times and how do we appreciate the gifts that we are having right now. Grab anything in front of you like you are not going to have it again. Take this as a rule of thumb to all of us and remember it deep in our heart.
That is all from me. Thank you.
