A results oriented society


If you don't show results, you are almost ignored by others even if you are doing your best...
You simply don't exist or worst, you might even be rejected...

Play high profile rather low profile.

Whether you like it or not, these are the expectations of our today's society if you want to be considered as someone who is successful, if you want to be recognised, to be popular etc...

And the quest for results is a phenomenon which appears in every field (sports, music, politics, business/work, education, etc...) and this phenomenon can sometimes be amplified/encouraged by the press and the public opinion.

Can we resist ? Can we swim counter current ? The choice is yours...

Unfortunately, this quest for results can sometimes become an 'obsession' for some people. And this 'obsession', coupled by pressure from family, friends, boss, biz partners, society..., can push them to adopt illegal, unethical or obscure practices/methods in order to achieve their goals.
