The effort and sacrifices are worth it

<Effort is the best substitute for excuses>

Yesterday was a very special day, but for reasons of force majeure I could not share my joy and happiness for celebrating my first year as an official Graphic Designer, this means that with a title that supports all my efforts, sacrifices, all those days that I felt faint because as in every process it is full of nuances, not everything is rosy, processes are often romanticized, when we enter it, we realize that nothing is easy, everything is possible with discipline and effort. Today I can proudly say that my sacrifices were worth it, because it was not easy going through this process here in Venezuela, where every day for three and a half years I had to put my life as a student ahead of any other priority, since all the days I got up at four in the morning to be able to arrive on time and take my classes, because the university where I was studying was practically two hours away from where I live with my family, these are processes that one thinks one cannot overcome and leave the towel, but God with his superior strength always gave me the courage and strength not to do it, to make my future something splendid and of course to fill my parents with pride, one of the most gratifying aspects of being human, because those two people are the ones who were behind the whole process advising and filling me with beautiful vibes to always follow.

Many are those who do NOT bet neither by effort nor by sacrifice in their life, depriving themselves of living one of the experiences that will undoubtedly give a 360º turn to their lives, because it is a process that improves not only the quality of life but also the perspective we have of life, because they are enriching experiences that leave us with a wonderful story to tell and even more a tremendous life experience, that although there is no magic formula to achieve success, without a doubt, each experience is unique, because even from the successes and errors we create our own scheme or path to reach our own brand of personal success, which may be similar to yours but it is not the same, because just as we are all unique, our success is also unique, due to which is relative, not all of us want or desire the same thing. What without a doubt all of us who are eager to succeed or to improve our life together is the determination to achieve it at all costs, thus creating a plan to follow although many times along the way the plan undergoes spontaneous modifications that in the long run one only understands that it was for our good.

The processes are not linear, but with resilience we can achieve any ups and downs that we suffer in this process, but now I want to motivate you to work for what you dream and desire for your life, it does not matter if others say that they are very little or small while fill you up and make you happy you should do anything that motivates you but I want to give you a series of tips that you can put into practice to achieve anything. The first is that you must set your goals, in this step you must be realistic, you must mark or put something that you can truly achieve, you must stop and analyze what it is that undoubtedly promotes you more every day until you reach the great goal, even many times it is not about material things, many times everything revolves around it when we even reach a more personal level of success thanks to the fullness that even the small big things in life give us, as I explained before, create goals, but divide them , in the highest and of course other smaller ones but that without a doubt help you get a little closer to the goal every day, for this it is essential to create strategies that help make all the objectives set a reality, for this it is not only It is necessary to put heart and soul into it, but also to create deadlines so that the results can be felt.

Another great tip is that we must get to know each other, we must know, understand and be realistic about our strengths and weaknesses, because we are human beings, we can handle everything but not everything at the same time, many times we have to ask for help, we must understand and let go. the ego even aside from the fact that we are not scholars, that at some point we will need to ask someone for help rather it is because that person has better skills in terms of something specific, therefore we must also work on humility to recognize any situation, as well as take the pill not to throw in the towel, because on any road there will always be bumps but we must have the ability to get up, heal ourselves and continue looking for solutions to reach the goal, another super important thing is to be organized, do not let chaos take over you, your ideas, emotions in general, do not let them take over your life, create work schedules but also rest schedules, you must rest your mind, let it flow freely. So that it comes again accompanied by the same amount or more of creativity.

How nice it is to be able to say that if you can, with effort and discipline you can achieve great things in life, even though hardly anyone believed in me, I always went against the tide, I always bet on my interests, I always believed that my actions they would bear fruit, perhaps not at the moment but in my future they certainly would. It was one of the best decisions I could make in my life, entering the unknown knowing that it would not be an easy path to travel but that it would bring literal gold to my life.

In the photo you can only see happiness and pride. A photo taken the day I received a role that turned my life around, it's amazing to see how a simple role has the ability to bring so much happiness to my life, although maybe for you success is something else, you're also amazing and powerful because you don't get tired of fighting daily to change your reality for another.

It's better late than never, happy day to me and my fellow designers who are part of the platform and communicate not only through writing but also through the ideas embodied in an image, how proud it is to be designers.
