Let's go

As a baby, we suffer to learn to walk, read and talk, as a child, we suffer to learn to count and socialize, in Basic education, we suffer to learn Math, Nouns, music, etc, in Medium education we suffer to learn history, chemistry, algebra, etc.
Now in the Superior education, we need to suffer.....
¿Why? Because the prize of suffer is the knownledge, we put sweat and tears in this. This is our moment, the moment we prove to the world that we can change it.
The key of the Engineering is "If you aren't tired, you're doing wrong", that quote is the best quote i've readed in my life. Never give up, don't let other people say that "you suck", prove them that they're wrong.
If your Achilles' Heel is the English, just train and study, i'ts very important to succeed, i know it's very hard to learn a new language, but nothing is impossible.
Just think it, ¿Have you answer yourself why the greatest masterminds changed our life style?.
That's because they never gave up, they put blood, sweat and tears in their's projects.
The other key is the imagination, your mind is powerful, there are no limits to dream, you can make your dreams reality. 
¡Let's go! ride the way to success, nobody can stop you, even your boss, your worst enemy, even your own "demons".
Just answer this ¿ARE YOU READY?
Best Wishes in the new phase of your life.


Traducción

Cuando eramos bebes, sufrimos para aprender a caminar, a leer y a hablar, cuando eramos niños, sufrimos para aprender a contar y a socializar, en la educación básica, sufrimos para aprender Matemáticas, sustantivos, música, etc, en la educación media sufrimos para aprender historia, química, álgebra, etc.
Ahora en la educación superior, necesitamos sufrir...
¿Por qué? Porque la recompensa de sufrir es el conocimiento, dejamos sudor y lagrimas en esto. Este, es nuestro momento, el momento en que nosotros demostramos al mundo que podemos cambiarlo.
La clave de la ingeniería es "Si no estás cansado, lo estás haciendo mal". esa cita es la mejor cita que he leído en mi vida. Nunca te rindas, no dejes que otras personas digan que "Apestas", demuéstrales que están equivocados.
Si tu talón de Aquiles es el Ingles, entrena y estudia, es muy importante para triunfar, se que es difícil aprender un nuevo idioma, pero nada es imposible.
Solo piensa ¿Te has preguntado cómo las grandes mentes maestras cambiaron nuestro estilo de vida?.
Es porqué nunca se rindieron, pusieron sangre, sudor y lagrimas en sus proyectos.
La otra clave es la imaginación, tu mente es poderosa, no hay limites para soñar, tu puedes hacer realidad tus sueños.
¡Vamos! sigue el camino del exito, nadie puede detenerte, ni tu jefe, tu peor enemigo, ni tus propios "demonios".
Solo responde esto ¿ESTÁS LISTO?
Mis mejores deseos en tu nueva fase de tu vida.

The final role play of the second half and the final role play of the Year.
