The best of our writing workshop Part II

Go beyond ordinary ways of thinking and doing:
Each day in our lives is a lesson. I want to benefit from everything I’m doing now through hard work, study,enjoying my life and my family. Each day is a new day where you can add new things. When this day is gone, it never will be back; each day is unique. Unfortunately, a lot of people, especially in South America,don’t want to grow up, to be
successful. I think now is the time that the young people have to change. Noelia

I would like to go beyond ordinary ways of thinking and doing because it might be amazing to create new ideas and share with everybody so in that process I can learn more about others. I might be able to express myself about what I got in that moment of inspiration: that could be fiction; new ideas about the future; painting; way of living; or improving our environment. I think it’s an interesting way to learn and get better by ourself. Also I can say
some people do this to create new concepts for business and to make money doing innovation for specific products in the market. Hermogenes

Concentrate on something challenging for a long period of time.
When I was a child, no, not only in my childhood but only when I was younger (before having my sons) I was a person who never stayed long with anything.
Never. About anything.
More than fifteen years ago I met “English”. I had learned it at school for a long time, but it was my worst favorite subject. I thought: “I am Japanese, why do I have to learn English?”A little later I realized how wonderful learning something is.
Once I knew it, I was getting into it more and more. I couldn’t imagine these days: I live in America and enjoy talking with people in English (even if far from perfect English) and I can’t believe I came this far away. It was not a challenge for me, but only challenging to do something for a long time, to love it or not to love it was the key.
If you love to do something, you can do anything. This is the same about a person;
you can do anything for him/her. And always vice versa.  Michiyo
