These people are facing changes in their life. Read their situations below:
I don’t really feel comfortable with this new idea of telecommuting. I wish I
could come to the office every day I have done for the past 5 years.
My name is Amanda. I am a hairdresser. I work in a beauty shop in the north of
the city. I am a single mother and have two beautiful sons. Mike is nine and
Steve is two. While I work, my mother takes care of my sons. She has always
supported me. But now my mom is really sick. The doctor recommended her
moving to a quieter place. So, she is moving in with my brother who lives in a
small town. If my mother moves, I will probably have to quit my job as I don’t
have anybody to take care of my kids. I wouldn’t leave them with a stranger,
especially the little one.

Dear Amanda,
I am Mayra and I live in Bogota, I want to tell you that you are a great woman to support
your mother and take care of her, she deserves the best, I recommend that you have a lot
of communication with her and make video calls with your children and she, they will miss
her.
I also tell you not to leave your dreams and goals in oblivion, having your own business is a
challenge, but you must have an open mind, think positive and take risks, you may think
that it will go wrong, but what if it goes well for you ?
It is time to remove the obstacles from your mind and make your own money, you can also
take better care of your children.
Your children need you, the time you share with them in childhood, they will share with
you when they are adults.
Be determined, you are a professional hairdresser and you will have an excellent business,
take the risk to fulfill your goals, take care of your mother and spend more time with your
children.
Greetings, Mayra.
