Chineza Camille A. Diesta

I grew up in a Chinese family where it is very strict and needs to always exceed their expectations in everything you do because if not they will not be proud of you. Growing up like that feels a lot of pressure. I was taught that hard work, dedication and education can get you far. In other words, put yourself into situations where you need to get better than you are if you want to survive. If we’ll keep doing that, you will build awesome adaptability and learning skills. The rewards are worth the occasional “learning experience.”
