important to have in mind those things that we
want to reach. In other words, we have to set our
goals, how we want to see ourselves in the future.

Be more dinamic and positive.
Be more creative.
Learn another languages and be fluent
and accurate.
4. I have to…
Teach with new methods, focused on
technology.
Be more organized.
Be more punctual.
Accomplish my commitments 100 %.
Take it easy. Stress is not healthy at all!
5. Simple actions (I will…)
Write down all my tasks and events on a
calendar or agenda.
Look for information and effective tips
and ideas(on books, Internet, etc.)
Download apps, read books, watch
movies and take classes of the languages
I want to learn.
6. (I will…)
Establish time to do every activity by
giving priority to the most important ones.
Think about my goals and take
responsibility to anything that will help me
to reach them.
Keep on practicing rock-climbing, and
hiking. Also, I will take a break, read a
book and enjoy nature.
7. 2. Set long terms
goals first
Am I giving my 100 % at work?
Am I satisfied with my achievements?
Do I have the “calling” on what I do?
Am I applying new ideas on what I
perform?
How much creative and efficient I
describe myself?
Is there anything I must change?
Am I working just for the money?
8. 3. Technical knowledge
It is necessary to learn as much as we
can. Everyday, the society demands
people with excepcional knowledge and
professional skills. We cannot stay in the
same thing we know since we got
graduated from High School.
“Everyday is an opportunity to learn something
new and useless.” -Josh Stern

Create either a digital or physical album
