    Program: Civil Engineering

    According to an American entrepreneur, Jim Rohn, “without a sense of urgency, desire


    loses its value.” This quotation means that you will lose the desire and never get what you want if
    you have a dream but do not act with the urgency, responsibility, and accountability necessary to
    fulfill it. Imagine dreaming to become a successful civil engineer but never completing your tasks
    on time, not setting your priorities right, and being a go-with-the-flow person. Do you think you
    can fulfill this dream of yours without a sense of urgency? I do not think so. You constantly
    perceive things as urgent and desire to address them as soon as possible if you have a feeling of
    urgency. Someone with a sense of urgency takes action as quickly as possible and does not wait
    for things to happen before doing so. This attitude is what Malayan Colleges Laguna hopes their
    staff and students should have. As a Malayan or Mapuan student, one thing I practice to make sure
    I finish my tasks on time or as quickly as possible is to frequently tell myself that I cannot use any
    social media apps and eat snacks. That way, whenever I feel hungry or browse my social media, I
    get motivated and feel a sense of urgency, and the task gets done quickly. I understand how wrong
    it is to endure hunger, but this technique helps me manage my time. As an aspiring civil engineer,
    developing this behavior would help me improve my problem-solving skills. I can recognize
    possible problems quickly when I have a strong feeling of urgency, which gives me more time to
    come up with solutions. Creating a good reputation in my sector requires being able to offer
    material quickly and reply to clients promptly.

    On the other hand, discipline is one of the most crucial personality qualities in everyone's
    life. It alludes to guidelines you must follow when engaging in any work or activity. It is a strategy
    for being honest, diligent, inspired, and motivated throughout any challenges and tasks given to
    you. Self-discipline helps you focus on your goals and control how you respond to every
    circumstance. This behavior gets stronger the more you exercise it, and low self-esteem may result
    from a lack of self-discipline. Since discipline is related to rules and policies, it also helps preserve
    social order and peace. A school setting is an example of this. All universities have protocols that
    would help and show students how to act appropriately. If disobeyed, there will be consequences.
    School discipline addresses the requirements of the whole institution, each classroom, and each
    student through extensive prevention, focused intervention, and the development of self-discipline.
    Discipline gives people the guidelines they need to lead productive lives. When you live a
    disciplined life, you may sacrifice little things now for a better life afterward. Discipline produces
    habits, which produce routines, which transform your daily routine.

    Sense of urgency and discipline are both behaviors that should be developed and practiced.
    These personality traits are essential in our personal and professional life. Many rules, whether in
    work or school settings, help form a sense of urgency. An example scenario is at schools where
    we usually have rules for late students. Some classes would not allow you to attend once you are
    late, as a consequence. This act would make students obey the regulations, which is a way of
    disciplining them and, at the same time, developing their sense of urgency to be more punctual.
    Another one is the deadlines and due dates. These policies motivate students to do their tasks as
    soon as possible because some professors do not accept late submissions to discipline their
    students. Discipline and a sense of urgency make a person confident. Always remember that it is
    better to have a sense of urgency and discipline today than to have a sense of regret tomorrow.
