Scarcity at School?
There are actually a lot of scarcity in school. If we don't consider it much, we don't notice them very much. But when we attend to details, we find out that there are actually a lot of scarcity. For example, the scarcity provided by homework. Although it is not DURING school, it is still a scarcity that is caused by school because when the school gives us homework that we have to complete, we are losing time for other things that we could've been doing. Another scarcity we face is for the electives in school curriculum. There are only a maximum of eight courses that we can take each year so if you have eight courses that you must take in order to graduate, that means you can't take the ones you find interesting that would drive your passion. This is causing scarcity in time and more specifically, in the number of classes you can take. I like to think of scarcity as things that you must do and the things that you want to do. That's the biggest problem with students. Most students that don't succeed is because they chose things that they want to do rather than things that they must do. I don't mean things that they must do in order for their continue existence or survivability. But I'm using it in a student point of view, which might be controversy, but this is my journal so there's no controversy. Things that a student must do I see as things that help a student succeed. Now this could be controversial too, but whatever, I'm the boss here. I'm just kidding, but I think you get my point. Scarcity is everywhere, with every decision you do.
