"The future is not something
that is done to us, but an ongoing process in which we can intervene (2011).”
Future; such an easy word to understand, isn’t it? Is ones future already
defined? Should we seat and watch time pass by? Or should we sweat and fight for
what we want to become? Academic Leadership advisory aims to aid those who want
to pursue their dreams and who desire to explore such knowledge and skills, in
order to reach what they intend to be and become part of. Don’t we all want to
make a difference in the world? Becoming someone well- known; someone happy?
Not only will this course strengthen my leadership skills, as well as it will
apply the different forms of leaderships and academic courses. You, readers,
might be asking yourselves how can pleasurable activities be something
academic? One must be aware that everything can interlink with each other. For
example, I am really amazed in such argument: do humans have free will? With
that, I intend to interview and catch up on people’s opinions about this
extremely deep thought. However, important thinker’s thoughts are also going to
be presented and added to my portfolio. Take a look at the first minute and thirteen seconds
of the following video, in which Sam Harris, an atheist, expresses his
feelings:
As Harris wrote on one of his books, Free Will:
“How can we
be free as conscious agents if everything that we consciously intend is caused
by events in our brain that we don not intend of and which are entirely
unaware? We can’t (HARRIS, Sam).”
