It's All About Qualities
People always says "Pursuit your dreams and make them come true" even thought this is easier to say than to be done, it's important to know if you have the qualities needed in order to achieve your success. In my opinion the most important quality that you need to become successful is to know the goals that you want, which is not necessary the most obvious nor easiest thing to do, identifying your objectives can be difficult specially when everyone around you had something to say about it. On the other hand, is essential to be consistent; the road to become successful isn't a trouble-free one because of the fact that you will find obstacles that will made you re-evaluate things. However this doesn't mean that you have to quit your chase, on the contrary every time that you fail it would lead you to a better way to reach your goal.

What is Success?
I'm constantly asking myself that question and I think that maybe I'm closer to find the answer. I'm the past I thought that success was totally related with big amounts of money, but after seeing how people can earn money but still being unhappy, I start doubt about that. Right now for me the word success means having a dream, pursuit and make it real. Even though it exist a possibility that you fail in the process, that fail should give you the courage to keep going and trying again and again. My sister has always told me that failing make the success more enjoyable and I think that's true. Because after all, the failures that you can have on the road of pursuing your dream, it would help you to be one step closer of make it possible.
With this I'm not saying that every time I fail I feel happy, that would big a HUGE lie! at the beginning I feel as a completely loser, I cry and I think that keep do it this is just a waste of time. But after "Going home," like Elizabeth Gilbert said on her TED presentation, I think of the situation more with my brain instead of my heart and I find myself trying again.
How do I deal with success? Wow, that's a hard question. I think that in this moment I haven't had achieved my dream. Of course I have done some things that have made me happy: getting my degree, live alone in Barcelona. But I consider this events like single steps to finally achieved my goal: work in something that I love or to love my job, whatever it comes first.
See you soon!
P.d: If you can dream it, you can do it ;)

My English Experience
Hi everyone!
Here are some interesting things about me. My native language is Spanish, but since I can remember I love listening things in other language, especially in English. Maybe that's my sisters fault, she always watch series in English. As a teenager I didn't think that the English that I was learning in High School was enough, so I found myself hearing more and more English music and trying to understand what were they saying.
When I didn't know the meaning of a word the first thing that I did was translate it to Spanish but it was hard for me to remember it. Then my brother in law told me that it was better if I try to find synonyms or the meaning instead of translating, and he was right! To expand my vocabulary I start to read books that I love in English, like Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan (I know that it could sound childish, but I like them), Harry Potter series and that kind of books. In the University some of my books were in English so I also know some academic words (:
But reading isn't that easy if you don't know how to pronounce the words, so I start to watch series or movies with subtitles in English when I had the opportunity. What do you do to improve your vocabulary? Maybe you could help me to increase mine in a better way!
See you soon! XOXO
