 Synthesis
The true purpose of the strong
is to promote greater strength in
the weak, and not to keep the
weak in that state where they are
at the mercy of the strong. –
Chistian D. Larson

GRADE 11 CAREER GUIDANCE PROGRAM: STEPPING UP TOWARDS SUCCESS

 Patience and perseverance are burning
desires that need to be fueled constantly in the
process of reaching ones goal. The quest for
the realization of your dreams is like waging a
momentous battle during which you might
encounter severe setbacks. But success
comes to those who turn adversities into
opportunities, overcome their limitations and
bounce back with renewed vigor.

 Synthesis

As we journey towards our career, we

see the road is long, and is rough. There
are times when we do not find enough
strength to sustain us. But through it all,
we strive to get up and move on. We
rediscover over strengths and build on
our weaknesses to become stronger in
pursuit of reaching our goal.
