In reaching the mountain top



I just finished my exam, finally the exam session is over and 3 month of summer are waiting for me. The are 3 months in which I plan to do many things.
My biggest dream in life is reaching the mountain top in everything I do. And because dreams don't work withouth action I decided not to waist time any more and in these months do something everyday for me, for my professional life, for the things I like. The way to reach the top is long and hard but I have the faith I will succed and all my efforts will be rewarded.

Now, I'm going to take some more steps on my path.

Change comes from within you alone

It’s June,a nice month in general but now because it’s raining a lot and because I have to study for my exams I don’t like it that much. During the last few days when I was not studying or having EB Meeting or planning all the things I have to do in the next 3 months, I thought why am I doing all this stuff. I’m not sure I found the right answer but at least I know some of the reasons. One of them is that I want to change something around me and about me. In order to change something around I need to change myself because Change comes from within you alone. So, I will change some things about me this year. Some of the things that can help me change are related to AIESEC, some are related to university and some with my personal life. Some of them are realy clear into my mind, some are just ideas that I must see how to put them in practice but anyway I’m making myself a promise and I do my best to keep it.

A story I like

An eight-year-old boy approached an old man, looked up into his eyes, and asked:

"I understand you're a very wise man. I'd like to know the secret of life."

The old man looked down at the youngster and replied: "I've thought a lot in my lifetime, and the secret can be summed up in four words.
The first is 'think'. Think about the values you wish to live your life by.
The second is 'believe'. Believe in yourself based on the thinking you've done about the values you're going to live your life by.
The third is 'dream'. Dream about the things that can be, based on your belief in yourself and the values you're going to live by.
The last is 'dare'. Dare to make your dreams become reality, based on your belief in yourself and your values."
And with that, Walter E. Disney said to the little boy, "Think, Believe, Dream, and Dare".

This is a story I found once and I really like it. I think life is more than these 4 words, but these words can create a step in finding the secret, of what life really is about, a secret that is different for everyone, because it's based on our believes and values.
