Don't Let Anyone Disturb Your Pace

Headmaster:

Good morning year Elevens. Today’s asmbly is about the start of a

journey. The start of the rest of your lives. In 2 years time all of you will

be finishing your A levels. In 3 years time you’ll be studying across the

world, studying at the university of your choice. In 5 years time you’ll

have started your careers. Many of you will be in this room working for

the top institutions across the globe. You will then get married, you then

may buy a hou. In 10 years time your life will be t for you. In 15 years

you’ll be 30 and from then on your path, your life will be t.

(Murmurring)

A young man:

I’m sorry Mr. Headmaster, let me tell you why that approach may fail you.

I know people who graduated at 21 and didn’t get a job until they were

27. I know people who graduated late at 25 and they found work

immediately. I know people who never went to university, but found

what they love at 18. I know people who found a job straight out of

college making decent money, but hate what they do. I know people

who took gap years and found their purpo. I know people who were so

sure about what they were going to do at 16, they change their mind at

26. I know people who have children but are single and I know people

who are married but had to wait 8 to 10 years to have children. I know

people in relationships who love someone el. I know people who love

each other but aren’t together. So my point is everything in life happens

according to our time, our clock.

You may look at some of your friends and think that they’re ahead of you,

maybe some of them you feel are behind, but everything happens at

their own pace. They have their own time and clock and so do you. Be

patient.

At age 25, Mark Cuban was a bartender in Dallas. It took till 32 for J.K.

Rowling to be published for Harry Potterafter being rejected by 12

publishers. Ortega launched Zara when he was 39. Jack Ma started

Alibaba when was 35. Morgan Freeman got his big break at 52. Steve

Carell only got his break after 40 years old. Virgin was started by Richard

Branson at 34. Getting your degree after 25 is still an achievement. Not

being married at 30 but still happy is beautiful. Starting a family after 35

is still possible and buying a hou after 40 is still great. Don’t let anyone

rush you with their timelines.

Becau as Einstein said, “Not everything that counts can be counted

and not everything that’s counted truly counts.”And this is the most

important thing, I want you to be able to create meaningful, purpoful

fulfilling lives for yourlves and learn how to u that to make an impact

and a difference in the lives of others. That will be true success.
