Week 7: What Is A Successful Business?

Imagen
I consider that a successful business is one which makes great benefits with low costs. Nevertheless, there are several things to take into account to make this possible. The environment in the business has to be motivating, the relationships between partners should be inspirational and all the objectives that the business has must be clarified. All these points will lead to a successful business. It is also truly interesting what people what people think about making a successful business, these are some opinions: -"Good ideas are cheap. Success comes from hard work, not a stroke of genius." Nir Eyal. -"All that waiting means they're not really learning. When you're an entrepreneur, the best way to learn is to do something, to put your idea into someone's hands, or to talk to the people you want to serve. Stop waiting and do... something."

Week 6: Connections

October 23, 2018 Dear Ander, I’m writing you this letter because I want to know how you’ve been going all this time. Since you moved in I haven’t heard about you. Do you like London? It’s incredible that you are living there, we really need to catch up! I would like you to come back because I miss you so much but I know that it’s better for you to stay there; so, I’m looking forward to visit you. I’m already picking up my English skills to be on your level. I’m reading all the books you recommended me but also I’m watching tons of series at the same time; all in the original version. However, it’s a little mess because I get confused sometimes with all of the characters. In addition, you could help me now, I’m sure you have friends there and it would be great if you introduce them to me. Be ready because I will show up when you least expect it!! Your friend, Daniel.

I do not like at all zoos as they animals are trapped and they are not living the life they deserve in their natural habitat. I would not like to see these animals all day because I work there so it is my worst job. In addition, it could be dangerous to work there because some animals are really savages and there are cases of people who died working in zoos. Finally, I am a calm person and I imagine myself going crazy with so much noise and movement at the zoo. My dream job would be being a teacher or working for a company, something more peaceful (sometimes). I asked my aunt about her job condition when she was younger and it is as different as I expected it to be. Then, kids worked more than studied as they used to leave school early to help the economy of the family. There were more jobs in the construction and it was well-paid, now it is one of the worst paid...
