Motto that Fu learns from his Economics major and Communication Art and Science minor is to be outgoing and networking. His outgoing personality and networking makes him be loved by everyone in the Taekwondo Club, everyone in the Swing Dance Club, and all the employees and bosses during his past internships.
Let’s hear a story. One day, an old frog meets an old spider and complains: “I have been working hard in my lifetime, but still on the edge of subsistence. Now I am old and declining, my destiny is to starving to death. You are old too, but there are delicious food and drinks all over your net, and I have never seen you work hard. The world is really unfair!”
The old spider replied: “I work hard to weave my net, and fix holes frequently. The reason that you are old and unreliable, and live in hardships is because you live on four legs while I rely on my net. My net has a name. It’s called “Be Outgoing and Networking.” It will never decline because of my age.”
Do you want to be the spider or the frog? Yes, of course you want to be the spider. It’s time to build your net then, a big one!
