Do you remember that person in your life who believed in you when you didn't believe in yourself? I am referring to the person who encouraged
you when you wanted to give up, the person who would not
stop believing in you no matter how convincing you were. It might have been a teacher, athletic coach, friend, uncie, aunt, sibling, minister, spouse, mother, or father who showed you how not to give up ...on yourself. That person probably with ammunition
even built a case on your behalf to prove the point and..•was

Everyone who has ever achieved anything in life has had at least one person whose support was unrelenting.

who have that unconditional communicate

CHANGES
1. - DEFINITION OF THE TOPIC
When we talk about change, the first thing that comes to my mind is the transformation process, because it is the moment we compare the past with the present so that we can plan the future. To change it's necessary to understand that we have to lose to grow. Change is aIl in our acts, every process of change generate a consequence, be it positive or negative. The main idea of change is to always do the best.
George Bemard Shaw said: "Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything."
To form a new opinion, to make a new choice different from the one you had before is a change. To change is, to have new possibilities every day to do the right thing; it's like having a second chance . •

very relevant because we have to balance what is really
important in our lives, Iest at some point we wiIl have to lose something that we are not ~
"
prepared for. For us, change is inevitable in life; it's a part of life. Sometimes when we
are tired of doing something all we have to do is change. But sometimes, when we are really happy and have to change, we fear the change like disappointment.
We have to
accept that change is necessary in life.
