Success is very important for me. I believe that everybody can’t live without it. In our lives there are a lot of difficulties and tasks. And we have to work hard in order to solve our problems. So every person in his own life should be studious to achieve something important for him. I guess that success is the result of our efforts.  As Dale Carnegie said, ‘Success is getting what you want. Happiness is wanting what you get’. 

What should we do to become successful? In my opinion, if you want to have a success, you should have clear focus on your future, determine your needs and tasks accurately. It’s good if we are happy owners of some innate abilities which help us to achieve success. Supportive family and financial security are also very useful in it. My own experience demonstrates that there is no success if there is no ability to take risks, self-confidence and even ruthlessness. All these are important factors in becoming successful. And what about luck? From my point of view luck is casual success, which is unexpected and independent of efforts. In other words, my attitude to success is “Wish, do and enjoy your success!”

To my mind it’s somebody who had achieved  AIMS? self goals or even in the close way to achieve them. We had read four texts about such successful people. So, what seems in common between all THOSE these professionals? First of all, we can remark these people had to work very hard. In spite of the fact that HARDLY ANY  each of them had a clear focus about future career, but everyone had a strong determination to ?get success. All of them supposed that no half-hearted man could reach confident success in life, you must be hardworking, determined, self confident and proceed against the odds.
In addition, I noticed that these people believed that there was something that could help in progress to REACH success, such things as a personal recommendation or friends who could vouch for you, networking and useful links or a kind of a tutor in chosen professional area. 
To sum up it is difficult to foresee your future, but if you’ve got strong will and push yourself to success you may reach desired points.

Work placement is a good experience not only for employer who has time to think and watch employee at work, but also for employee who has also time to do the same.
 
 

From my point of view, the earlier you get your work placement, the better it is. Actually the first place of work is not about a high salary, it is about gaining hands-on job experience. Personally I believe that it doesn’t really matter what kind of work you do for the first time. It’s a splendid opportunity to be prepared. I remember myself being an undergraduate. My main priority was to become independent and be on equal footing with my parents,to develop confidence in my own forces. Despite the fact my first job wasn’t connected with my career, I am really grateful to it. First of all, I took pleasure in being part of a close-knit community, I still keep in touch with those people. Secondly, I’ve learnt how to deal with stressful situations, although I’m still not good at it. But nowadays when I have to meet tight deadlines and take on a heavy workload, when I think that the situation can’t be worse and want to quit my job, I remember my first place of work and cheer up. 

All in all, I suppose that having a work placement before getting a permanent job is a crucial part of our life. It’s an exceptional chance to try yourself and make your choice and as a bonus get a valuable experience. 

If you ask me, work placement is absolutely necessary and even better to do two-three courses at least because that could help students to understand what exactly they would do at their future job, to decide whether they really want to have such a job. And last but not least, work placement promotes of building sandcastles and not being taken aback wih what? when students start working.

To sum up, ...

I have greatly enjoyed working at “ABC School” company for the past two years. In those years, I have become an integral member of the team, and have invested almost all my time in this job. Disappointingly, I have to resign from this position because of moving to another city.

However, the principal reason for writing in this occasion is to express my dissatisfaction with inadequate compensation. As you are doubtless aware, all the teachers were involved in preparations for the summer camp, I have developed a detailed plan for the first week, your  teachers can take this plan and work without any preparations, as it’s written in apprehensible way.

This work was an amazing experience of planning, nevertheless I had to spend a lot of my time on it to make it in a quality manner.  Therefore, I please could you consider finding a way of paying extra charge for my extra work.

I look forward to your response
Yours sincerely
