The 1st - 13th jan

Today's lecture helped me to understand better what Public Relations (PR) is all about. Before I attend this lecture, I thought that PR generally has to do with advertising and marketing, and that's it. I realised that I am correct but I underestimate the difficulty of being a PR. It is quite challenging to be one. 

I feel that many PR skills are developed based on one's personality and not through workshops. If one is optimistic and tend to be out-spoken, he or she are in a better position in coping with the difficulties in PR. If otherwise, it can be rather torturing and tiring if one is a pessimistic and quiet person. In any case, I will not deny the possibility that one's personality may change during the workshops and that he or she may be able to perform well in the PR related responsibilities. After all, like what others say, "Nothing is impossible" if one sets his or her heart in doing it. 

For me, I can be quiet at times. I also can be pessimistic sometimes. So, like the saying which I had mentioned above, I will try my best to work hard for what I desired to be, which I am still unsure of. 

Nevertheless, I have an interest in PR and that I look forward to attending lessons in the following weeks.
