Pinoy Lang Ako Mentality - A Crippling Disorder

Its funny how some Filipinos have the "Pinoy Lang Ako Mentality"... There's nothing wrong with being a Filipino but it seems that some of our fellow Filipinos use this instead as an excuse for not being able to do certain things... Well, honestly you could always blame your height on your being Filipino but thats it! You can't make excuses like, not hoping and striving for success on your being Filipino...

Filipinos have as much chances of succeeding as Americans, Australians, and Singaporeans... Do you believe that? I do! And I think that we can even do better than them... But first we need to tackle and remove within us the "Pinoy Lang Ako Mentality"...

Here are 2 reasons why we should get rid of this mentality:

It Cripples you from achieving more...

*I think its pretty obvious that making excuses and blaming it on your being Filipino would stop you from reaching your full potential... The truth is unless we stop making excuses and working towards a better future we would never be able to achieve success as a Nation...

It Makes other Filipinos look bad...

*If you keep making excuses that you can never succeed because your just a Filipino, people of other nationalities that hear you would tend to immediately generalize that all Filipinos are like you and Filipinos are nothing but a bunch of lazy and undetermined people... If you don't want to become a better person, its your life but I ask you to not make excuses but instead tell the truth...

I admire all those Filipinos who looked past their being a Filipino not succumbing to this crippling disorder.. Instead working hard to reach their dreams and goals... You are an inspiration!
