When we notice someone's success, we feel like they're the lucky ones who made it. However, success isn't always about luck. There is a lot of hard work and struggle that you have to go through in your way to succeed . If you really want to be successful in life (PUNCT) you have to keep working hard and not take no for an answer, no matter how difficult it might seem. ]]> 2020-06-02 12:16:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mpcenglishclassroom/6szt1ua3dtj17hfe/wish/606739158 Leonor Carvalho leonorcarvalho10AV https://padlet.com/mpcenglishclassroom/6szt1ua3dtj17hfe/wish/606740030 In the picture we see an iceberg that represents our life. Sometimes before we get succeeded we have to go through a path that includes a lot of ups and downs and nowadays people don’t value that . For example we students have to choose what we want to be , and for that we have to work hard and go through a lot of complications to make our dream come true . Nowadays, we have to appreciate the effort that people go through because we have to work hard to be someone and to be successful.]]> 2020-06-02 12:17:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mpcenglishclassroom/6szt1ua3dtj17hfe/wish/606740030 Mariabranco10AV https://padlet.com/mpcenglishclassroom/6szt1ua3dtj17hfe/wish/606741812 Above the water we see an iceberg, where it’s written success. However (PUCT) under (STH MISSING) there is a piece of the iceberg even bigger then (SP) the one that is overhead (WW), which is, sometimes, the things that people don’t want others to see. Because behind a great success is hide (VF) a lot of struggle, fails (WW) and sadness.  
Sara Sampaio, (PUNT) once confirmed that before becoming a Victoria secret’s model she heard a lot of no’s. 
People many times (WO) conceal what they don’t like about their path, from time to time things they’re actually ashamed of. ( Like Elsa  in the movie of Frozen)

Like Maria Leonor told (WW), people don’t know how hard the others worked to (WORD MISSING HERE)something, because they don’t show that part. I have a (WF) Instagram music account... I use post some videos of me singing, people don’t know how many tries did it took... Sometimes I really get mad with myself because I couldn’t do that note that I wanted to do and then I have to film it again, but this time I forgot the lyrics, so I do it again and I just get out of the tone TUNE or my brothers do some sounds, my mother call (VF) me, the instrumental stop (VF)... It’s harder than it looks.... There’s always something that can ruin it all... And then... sometimes people don’t give any value to what I did... so I try it harder the next time till it cames (SP) to a worth result. So I call this: “Fake appearances” what people see is not what it really is, sometimes. We shouldn’t judge people only BY seeing the result, but seeing the road they walked through.]]> 2020-06-02 12:23:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mpcenglishclassroom/6szt1ua3dtj17hfe/wish/606748661 SofiaFeliciano https://padlet.com/mpcenglishclassroom/6szt1ua3dtj17hfe/wish/606749088 Sofia Feliciano
In this day and age, we are being constantly exposed to the extremely successful one percent, whether it is through social media or our television, the highlights of people’s lives have become an expectation for most of us. An expectation impossible to achieve, leading to plenty of frustration and disappointment for those attempting to climb the success ladder. Personally, what I’ve gathered from my brief seventeen years on this earth is that nothing worth having comes easy, and if we kept that in mind we would save ourselves from falling for the illusion of the iceberg of success.]]> 2020-06-02 12:23:22 UTC https://padlet.com/mpcenglishclassroom/6szt1ua3dtj17hfe/wish/606749088 Valter10AV https://padlet.com/mpcenglishclassroom/6szt1ua3dtj17hfe/wish/606749377 The following picture shows our reality.
Some people dream of being successfull (SP), but they forget what it costs. Some off (SP) them even think success is about being lucky, and all they do is waiting for success without any effort.
People must work hard and be honest to be successfull (SP) and they have to be prepared to deal with some disappointments and failures, never give up, because this is what being successfull (SP) means, work hard and learn to deal with some disappointments.

They don't see the disappointment/frustration, the tears, the failure behind the sucess (SP). They think that someone that achieved a good result has a gift, as if he was born knowing how to do that. 
Everybody should know that we need to focus and do our best, to learn more we need to contact people that know more, see new things and learn with our mistakes.
Never give up and one day you will be rewarded. ]]> 2020-06-02 12:24:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mpcenglishclassroom/6szt1ua3dtj17hfe/wish/606750615 The reality of success mariana_music_2580 https://padlet.com/mpcenglishclassroom/6szt1ua3dtj17hfe/wish/606754796 Some people think that success is easy, but don't have ANY idea of the reality and think that they don't have to work and sacrifice on this process.
Its (PUNT) easy to say that people don't work on they objectives and dreams. However, if you can reach/achieve your objectives you work hard, have problems and failures. It is really important you have determination and never give up.
Need the reality of world is crucial to you don't think that is easy alcance your objectives and felt disappointed. (THIS SENTENCE NEEDS YOUR ATTENTION)

People don't see our dedication, persistence, sacrificies (SP), discipline... 
 This (WF) things are represent (VF) in the end of the iceberg because they are occult (WW). 
 When someone is sucessfull (SP), we don't see their difficults (WW), and the work they had to achieve success. Hard work is an important thing, failure is normal, and this is the way to achieve the success.
