Vietnam is stepping into an international integration in all aspects. The whole society is experiencing drastic change: meetings between East and West, different concepts and ideologies, co-existing and clashing values of all kinds, both old and new. Values are evolving. With such change and challenges, we need to have a focused and individualistic way of thinking, more confident and responsible behavior.
It is not an easy thing for most of us as the small farming mentality has been ingrained in our mind for thousands of years with the standard: do what the majority do. The value is originated from the primitive society where individual existence completely depended on its capability to integrate into the community. It has become a traditionalist oriented mentality and behavior, or a clan-like hierarchy. In such a way, the individual is secured, even though the society is not evolving much, evolutions, creativeness and added values are limited.
It is not by individuals who only copy but those who have a sense of responsibility that communal benefits are built, (this is a kind of web network). In the modern society, individual factor is the most important. The more each individual promotes its abilities, the diverse and the more richly the community benefits.

• “The enthusiasts”: excited, easily led by the mass…
• “The indifferent”: unworried, not concerned so much…
• “The anxious”: always fight for a living…
You may find yourself belonging to one or another group from time to time. These, however, are the three representatives for similar states of mind. You may not belong to any of them?
