Morning Shot: "Look within yourself, don't compare with others." How to nurture unique interests and resilience to pursue passion in our younger generation
"Look within yourself, don’t compare with others.”
A message that Singapore’s Prime Minister Lawrence Wong sent out to youths recently as he urged them to follow their own talents when deciding which career paths to take.
Well, it’s never easy trying to figure out where your passion lies and whether you want to pursue it as a career, but the Government is looking to provide more opportunities and support for Singaporeans looking to pursue their aspirations.
Just how ready are our younger generations in pursuing their dreams, and what kind of support do they need?
On this episode of Morning Shot, Jason Tan, Associate Professor from the National Institute of Education’s Policy, Curriculum and Leadership Department, and Sophia Ng, Co-Founder of Kidztropic Singapore share their insights.
