Everyone, when we were children, had a goal or a "dream" about what we wanted to be tomorrow, those kinds of dreams gave us the energy to continue fighting day by day. Sometimes the way to success may be hard, but in the end, as soon as it can be, we will be in the place where we wanted to be. Of course, it will happen if we don´t surrender; and this is one of the secrets of success: Never give up!, If you fall 100 times, get up 100 times. If life hits you, don´t give up, and keep going in the fight. Your fight. Sometimes obstacles in life may be the bad opinion of people, and sometimes it gives us a sudden "end" in ours plans. It does not matter! If we know what we want and how we are going to make it, we don´t have to think about what people say about our lives or ideas. The worst obstacle for us is our own opinion. This is the worst obstacle to find ours goals, because we don´t believe in ourselves. We have to trust in ourselves and keep working for our future.
So, those words can tell you what we are going to talk about this week , and it is about "goals", share in the comments (in general) about your goals from short to long term, and how you want to reach them. (Required, use 2 or more phrases of discourse markers)
In my case, I want to finish the university to continue studying a master´s degree and later try to find a job that doesn´t have relation with Telecommunications.
To do it, I´m going to get better scores to get a scholarship in another country like Japan, because I think that it is a good place to continue studying. In fact, I think that this culture can teach us good things. As I was saying, later I want to create a business or try to find a job that I like.
Thank you very much Erick. I think your post is very motivating, and it reminds me that we cannot stop even if we face challenges or obstacle in life. Actually, I am convinced that challenges make our lives more interesting. On the other hand, your topic makes me remember that we are not a result of our circumstances, but a result of our decisions.
ReplyDeleteIn regards to my goals, what I can share with you is that I can't wait to get my masters degree certificate to be able to pursue other opportunities. My long term goals include my puppet company, traveling to South Korea, and opening my own business. To sum up, none of those can be achievable if I don't reach my short term goal first. I am very close and I know I can do it. I thank God, because he has always put the right people on my way, and thanks to those people, including my family, I have been able to get as far as I am now.
Thank you again, and I hope to see everybody participating.
Speaking of traveling please share with us why you want to travel to South Korea.
DeleteWell, Yeshua. First of all, many of the my former Korean students have invited me to go there. I think that it really cool, because I wouldn't have problems finding a place to stay. Secondly, I am very interested in getting an international English teaching certificate, so traveling to Korea would be a great opportunity to do so. Lastly, I love Korean food! I know that is not important, but I am sure that I wouldn't have any trouble adapting to the country. Of course my stay would be temporary.
DeleteYou´re so right, because when we let that other people words affect us basically we´re giving them the our power.
ReplyDeleteSo I have one unfinished grade, a master degree in commercial law, I´m working in the theoretical framework. On the whole this is the most important of the short term goals besides of improving my english skills, actually my family and me, are still acomodating to the changes we had, because of my mother disease. At least we have the oportunity to help her, and my siblings are helping.
As far mid term goals concerned, one of the most important is to change my car for a newest one.
And one of the most important long term goals is to look for my financial freedom.
On one hand this exercise help me to take the way, if I´m loosing it.
By see you.
In my case, one of my goals for this year would be to finish this course with high grades. Besides, my mom enrolled me in a course of Sign Language this year and I want to finish it well. And, I also want to get to the university. Then, I want to graduate to the university. By the way, the career that I like is about English. So, as I was saying, after the university I want to get a good job so I can help my mom with the needs of the house. And if I got the chance to enroll in other course that I know it can help me to get more knowledge and preparation, I would take advantage it.
ReplyDeleteIn other words, I want to be a person very prepared who can find many opportunities for good jobs and live a good life with the family.
