Hi, I think that most of you will know me by now. If you don't, I am none other than Dr. Tan. I feel extremely honoured today to be invited to make an article contribution to a youth magazine to encourage young people to set worthwhile goals and work towards them.

The first question is what type of goals is worthwhile and which are not. Goals which are worthwhile are within reach. For example. if you are a beginner in mountain climbing, do not set goals like climbing Mount Everest. Instead, set more worthwhile goals such as climbing Mount Kinabalu. then work hard towards it. For example, you can start off by running 5 kilometres or climbing twenty stories a day. I believe that with much perseverance, you would be able to achieve your goal.

I hope that after my speech today, more people would be able to set more worthwhile goals and work hard towards them. Thank you for your kind attention.

cheers,
joshua
