Dare. Change.

Have you ever been obliged to change in order to "survive"?

See and listen to this video.

After seeing the video, answer the question again:

Have you ever been obliged to change in order to "survive"?

Good thoughts!

I really liked this video!
It resumes most of things we live each day!
And of course in so many moments of my life I needed to change in order to survive! I've had and I still have moments in my life that I´m confronted with situations where I get a step behind feeling like I want to give up, but then, I force myself to get two steps ahead and take the risk. The NO answer is granted, but the YES answer it´s always a doubt.

Great! What a motivating video!
It's supposed to be about fear, and the encouragement to overcome those fears.
In some moments of my life I needed to change in order to "survive", of course! At times I had to give a step that I didn´t know if it was the right one, and I was scared. Then I took a step behind, but suddenly I had to take a step ahead and take the risk. I think that sometimes we must challenge our own capacities to reach our objective. So we have to fight our fears and all we can do is keeping the faith and the hope that somehow the best we will reach!

Yes, sometimes we need to do things that we think we aren't prepared to do... and then, we feel great!
Challenges enrich us, don't you think?

Yes, that´s right! Challenges in life can enrich us! I think that a challenge can make us progress and grow as persons and makes us believe that we are capable to do and make our dreams come true. Sometimes when we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and determination to change. We must learn to courage ourselves and decide to stay determined in life. Challenges are what make us who we are!…

In a word: ATTITUDE.
I enjoyed the video. It reminded me a lot of situations where I had to have attitude and boldness to overcome some obstacles and challenges.
Everything is achieved in life! We must believe!

Yes of course . We all often are prisoners of our lifes, repetitive habits, conditioned by the situations to which we settled. A lot of situations that worn and exhauste us. We must let go of the old and embrace the new, even though for some time, we will be unprotected to face a new situation.

In the world we live everything that is novelty turns out to scare us and make us a little with" Misgiving," which in my opinion is more than normal.
A change of school , joining the army, entering University , begining work life , the 1st day with "my " class , ..., seeing the video reminded me of each of those situations, the hesitation, giving a few steps back for fear but also to take stock and move forward , facing fears but fighting each one.
If we see it carefully we´ll realize that we were " forced " to change something in order to survive in the society we are in.
I do not understand the obligation as something negative but as a suitness for something.

I enjoyed a lot this video. It shows that we must have the courage to overcome our problems, in our daily war , that is our life , sometimes we have to take a step back and take two forward immediately , Without thinking in the consequences . I always say to my son , who is ten years old , we must always adapt to new situations , but he must always follow the principles of honesty and respect for others, and he should never give up.

Thank you for this so motivating video Teacher! It is quite inspiring!
This Reflects a capacity that is within each of us: with enough determination, courage, self-confidence, intrinsic motivation, the human being is able to face their own fears and overcome obstacles that sometimes seem undefeatable. There are, in fact, situations in our lives, where we are forced to take a step back, in order to then be able to take several steps forward. I think we've all had to go through situations where we are put to the test, in which we are challenged, but one way or another we get to respond to that. Thus, sometimes this implies changes, Inner changes that are part of our self-awareness and desire to become better people. I see this as something that is part of our learning process as human beings.

This is a very encouraging film. We often have to step back and then move forward with strength and determination.
I've been forced to change because many were and are the challenges that arise throughout my life, but I am a fighter and I try to run after my dreams, even if these dreams seem unattainable. One case in particular was when I had to leave everything behind (family, boyfriend and friends) and pursue my childhood dream: to be a primary school teacher.

The video is fantastic and it reminds us that we should never be afraid of facing our challenges. Once I read somewhere (I don’t remember where) a sentence that was more or less as follows: If you want to move forward, go ahead; if you are afraid, be stronger and more determined and keep going! This is really the best way to face our life and the problems we may encounter.
Attending this course was and still is a great challenge for me. (As I have already mentioned before!) When I considered attending it, the mere thought of doing it frightened me. I was only able to move back and not forward, because I believed that I wouldn’t be capable of doing it… However, I told myself that I did have the capacity to do it, so here I am. I managed to step forward.
Therefore, changes in life are fundamental if we want to “survive”. Whether it’s in our personal life or in our professional one, we should know how to change, in order to live and not only to “survive”.
