Ted speech

TED SPEECH

The woman defends, that what makes the kids to pass the exams and people in general to be successful I not the IQ but their grit. So her point of view is very positive as says everyone has same chances to success no matter the IQ.

My vision is similar. By one hand there are very intelligent people that have no aspirations and neither motivation to do something useful. And by the other hand, there are people that have not a lot of logical-mathematical intelligence, but for them that’s no problem because with passion, time and strain they can get the same results. Maybe could seems that is not fair, but I think it is because everyone is good in something. Also I think the intellectual intelligence is overrated as there are eight more intelligence that are really important like the existential intelligence,  the interpersonal intelligence, the musical intelligence of any of the others intelligences. In the speech, the woman is focused in being successful in certain areas but the point is that there are so many areas in one can be good at. Anyway it’s true that in school the intelligences that are more rated are the linguistic and the logical-mathematical intelligence, and if you are not good at them can be difficult to pass. But also it’s true that we, normally, have the same brain capacity, some have born with it more developed but our brain is able to learn anything if you want to do it.

So finally I agree with the woman that defends that with grit you can success no matter your kind of intelligence, but I would also like to remark that there are a lot different intelligences one can be good at. 

my dear teacher

MY DEAR TEACHER

As I said the other day in class, I’m an optimistic person but also realistic, so I always try to see the best on the worst and the worst on the best. My short and long terms goals are not really amazing as I don’t want to do incredible things in my life, I just want to live it in a way I like it.

My short terms are to finish batxillerat and to go to the university in Barcelona with two really good friends in a flat. The degree I don’t really know yet but in fact these last month I have had the idea of being a vet quite a lot in my mind.

About my medium-terms goals I have the idea of leaving the big city after college and go to live in a small town as I like the calm and the nature. I also have the idea of having a conscious and healthy life. As far as I can I would like to do some courses about knowing myself because as my parents are psychologist I’m interested in this world. About the healthy thing I love sport and eating healthy. I also would like to do the course of diving because I find the sea world amazing. But also, by another hand, I like the mountain and doing trekking.

If I talk about my long-terms goals, talking about me in 30 years, I like the idea of getting married and having 3 child and some pets. Finally another thing I like quite a lot but which I don’t have had a lot of opportunities to experiment is traveling. I would like to visit during all my life lot of different places; to see different ways to live, to know different cultures and to see different landscapes. 

So, I think that is all, thank you for reading my expectations and aspirations about my future.
