It is very true, in daily life we meet people who want us to be bad. External factors affect our performance,
it is inevitable not to let ourselves be influenced by our environment.

There is a phrase that says "Showing our feelings to others is like bleeding before a shark" and it is
extremely true, our emotions betray us and malicious people can easily take advantage of it. There may be
a thousand people who want to see us without wanting to surpass us, but it will only be up to us to face
them and make them understand that we are not cowards. Life is hard and we can only fight against it if
we put our minds to it.

2. Write a 200 word paragraph.

Give an explanation to this quote "If you make your bed every morning you
will have accomplished the first task of the day. ... Making your bed will also
reinforce the fact that little things in life matter.” - Admiral William H.

Everything in this life counts, from the smallest actions. Everything counts, our actions, whether large or
small, form a kind of cause-effect that at a certain moment will make us see good or bad results.

Small actions become habits, habits can be beneficial or counterproductive in the case of making our bed
is very punctual, not leaving something unfinished. Our bed is the place where we start and end our day,
we cannot leave it messy since it is our starting point and return, we can do many small things that bring us
benefits: throw the garbage, drink water when we wake up, brush our teeth, take a shower . We can do
many things that will make us useful adults who will one day contribute great things to society.

Everything depends on the effort of each one of us, we cannot wait for someone else to take care of us and
solve our lives on a daily basis. We will not always depend on our parents, it is up to us to face life and
regardless of whether we fall we must get up and face everything. We are capable of great things, we just
have to make our bed every morning.

3. Write a 200 word paragraph.

How can you change the world? Make sure to give examples to your paragraph.

For me there are only two concrete ways to change the world: Through innovation and through the
transmission of knowledge.
Innovation and the transmission of knowledge are the two basic principles of the evolution of History.
Innovation, whether through invention, discovery or even a great business project like Elon Musk and his
conquest of Mars, will change the living conditions of human beings, therefore the needs and mentalities
of each one of us.

The transmission of knowledge in all its forms: books, philosophical reflections, discussions, theories, etc.
it is what will make it possible to publicize the new information obtained thanks to discoveries and
innovations.

An example of this is the solar panel, it is a key innovation, the internet allows everyone to understand
how it works and thus reproduce it, and thereby innovate again.

Innovating and transmitting information helps us to really, concretely, materially change the world, we
must do things that give way to new innovations or visions of the world, and therefore new solutions to our
problems, the whole world is constantly changing, never stop and it only depends on humanity itself to be
able to survive and not die trying, it is time that innovating and transmitting our knowledge, learning and
teaching is the only way to change the world.
