Liz Kwo: My parents encouraged me to find a way to separate myself from the herd
Liz Kwo, shared on their LinkedIn page:
”My parents encouraged me to find a way to separate myself from the herd.
They advised me to strive to be different in as many ways as possible. That meant, for example, studying a foreign language in high school.
I took Japanese for three years. It was a good decision for a couple of reasons. One was that, as my parents suggested, made me stand out. Japanese was difficult to learn and the fact that I received a scholarship to visit Japan and challenged myself to enter speech and writing competitions was a plus from a college admissions perspective.
I also thought I might use Japanese in business. Turns out we can’t predict everything, as I don’t do much business in Japan, but I ever choose to in the future, I have the skill at the ready!”
