F2F Class Notes (Nicholas)[S]

Original

Yes I think its important because just like me / take me for example I still struggle sometimes I don’t want to work everyday, every morning, I just stay with my daughter but I have to get up and go work and everyday I have a lot of job to do and a lot of challenge but sometimes I think its good sometimes I feel its difficult but its the point I have an opportunity or to study things – sometimes I think its good because the job can make money and that way you can improve yourself – I think the job is one part of my life and it makes me professional and it can give me my dream life. So I think everyday I need to encourage myself / motivate myself / I think I’m not passionate person. I think maybe for example now I’m falling up an arbitration case and sometimes I need to confirm some evidence with the business department.
