Hello,
In this blog you will find different tasks or exercises. These activities correspond to the homework of the course.
All of the tasks should be completed per week or all at once. I will be checking them per week.

B) What motivations do you have in your life?
There are a lot of things that motivate me in my life. One of my best motivation is my job because with my work I was able to have a house, I can travel around the world, I can have a car and the most important thing with my job is that I have a very wonderful team work and a very nice working environment. They make me feel part of a very important project inside the university. But, one of the most important motivation in my life is to wake up in the morning and to know that I can see, to know that I can walk and to know that I can breathe. To be alive is a gift to do any kind of things I want to do.
C) What motivates you to keep going, to achieve your goals?
The engine that drives my life is to know that I can do anything I want. That not exactly means do whatever I want to do, means do the things that help me to achieve my goals. In that way, for me is very important to recognize that in many things I need the help from another person. To be humble and responsable helps the people to be better. I also think that I do not know all the things I would like to know that is why I need to be close to the people that teach me to be a better person in this world during all the rest of my life.
