New mindset
I'm a simple web developer and professor here in Brazil that like a good Brazilian food and that gets excited for his next weekend bike ride. I decided to start this blog again, because I need to study English and write here a little bit about what happens and my life and the things I watch on TV, or at the cinema in English. Can I only expand my vocabulary reading, watching or listening? Not sure, Instead of only trying that, I want to try to write in English too.
Today I talked with a friend about professionalism. We talked about this because I'm a professor and every day I meet with a lot of people that want to start their first internship in a company. So, when you start working in a new company as a intern, you need to show your skills, and you need to pay attention to the opportunities are happen around you. Laziness doesn't exist in your mind, instead imagine you are strong, respectful and dedicated.
The important thing at this moment is to change your mindset. I believe you want to improve your possibilities and opportunities at this place (company), you need to believe that your colleagues are your team, your family and a source of dedication and perseverance for the future.
At the beginning, everything is difficult. Those things like new colleagues, new hours of dedication, new habits, new activities are probably terrible, but, if you really want to change your mindset to improve what you could be, if you want to grow/develop new skills/abilities you need challenges. Sometimes I remember "A calm sea doesn't make a skilled sailor".
Going through the first wall is a challenge, after that, the sky is limit, think about it!
