A Thought about Cert

As I am filling up e-posting,
I found myself sick of the certification things.

I used to weigh the cert so heavily during my high school in order to achieve scholarship around the world.
People says cert is a THING, a thing that will bring you to another higher level that none of your classmates can do. 
Well, I trust it, and tried my very best to do what I can to achieve all sort of certification.
End up, I achieve nothing but a scholarship that I didn't really bother to sign up at first. (It was my mother's idea all the way down to what I am doing now).

Does the cert really matters? 
How the cert affects you?
How to get the cert affects you?
How to certs works to affects you?
and how the certs didn't affect you?

Don't follow the instruction blindly.
Think. 

Currently, I am facing the same situation again.
Preparing cert for my up-coming interview for posting. 
I feel so sick of it, by thinking at how these yellow papers has really changed me since I started to weigh them hard. 
I came up with nothing at the end. 
I have no idea what the heck these thing got me into. 
Well, maybe they are the reason I got chosen to this particular scholarship I am currently getting, and I am certainly not happy about. 

I can't possibly find a good thing about cert so far. 
Only if you have the right way of collecting it.

Let me share it with you:
1) Be in the position of something that is beyond your school level, eg, districts, states, or even international. 
2) If you can't, make sure you got the highest position of some activities in school. eg, president, or secretary or advisor et. al. 
3) Be in active in different field, as in, uniform, club and sport. Don't just stick on sports, but also the other field. And again, go beyond school level. 
4) Aim for the highest level's cert. Don't active in all the activities just because they offer you cert. Aim for the program that will give you a very high position (eg president) or level (eg international) and of course, offer you a cert. 
5) Cert is not about quantity, it's about quality. It values the level of your participation. The higher, the better. 

I hope you guys don't just collect the cert blindly, but aim, aim for the high value one. 

I'm gonna continue to brag about cert in my thought. 
So good night. 

and,
Good Luck.

"Now the Cert is like Gold, but how much does it affects your goal? It matters, but does it REALLY matters? Don't follow the direction blindly and achieve nothing."
