Choices That Define

In a world that induces despair regularly, individuals counter a dark world by bringing light into it. In the current generation there is no shortage of tools that individuals can utilise to send a message that resonates with audiences. People face a choice of either focusing solely on themselves or being a beacon of inspiration for others.

Delivering messages that resonates with others is the objective behind Dr. Oscar’s YouTube channel. He makes sure that each episode is effective by dedicating adequate time to craft the script of each episode. He carries forward with each episode inspite of the costs associated with it, like the video editing and the photography expenditures.

Finding topics that strike a chord with viewers is one of the biggest challenges that Dr. Oscar faces. Others include selecting appropriate locations, anticipating the weather, writing scripts and recording the same every week. It is inevitable that such tasks introduce people to new routines. Dr Oscar has sacrificed the free time he gets after his lectures for activities such as reading, writing and recording scripts. He spends approximately 3 hours for reading and writing scripts

Dr Oscar rising above challenges

Fuelled by his self-belief, Dr Oscar goes above and beyond to navigate through these challenges. Although he plays a major role in building the future of his pupils, he firmly believes that if teachers restrict themselves to completing the syllabus, they leave students ill-equipped to deal with diverse challenges in their path. 

He thus plays a crucial role in quenching the thirst that students have for strategies that prepare them to deal with various obstacles, a plan for being successful in their respective fields and lessons that can be learnt from the experiences that people have. Apart from the weekly inspirations by Dr. Oscar, it is evident by reading about him in the paragraphs above that he is a man of ethics.

From Russia’s famous butcher called Vladmir Putin to the incident of poorly preserved platelets that resulted in a Dengue patient’s death in U.P, there are numerous instances of a lack of morals around the globe. Educational institutions and family play a huge role in building a future generation filled with people of ethics. 

In an era where entities like RSS exist that demands action on Global Hunger Index surveyors, morals are an underrated solution which educators and the masterminds behind inspirational videos are responsible for giving. People who don’t cultivate good values in their children run the risk of creating terrors like Vladmir Putin.
