Exercise 5, page 9
Read the text and see what Ilie does when he has a problem. What does he think about his mother's advice?
My mother is a fantastic woman. She always helps people when they have problems. Probably this is because of her job. She is a life coach. She helps people understand and find solutions to their problems. She also helps everyone in the family.
At the beginning of the fall semester, I felt worried. I wanted to do everything in time and I was afraid. My mum gave me useful advice. She told me I should make good use of my time when I set my goals. So I made a plan. All my school activities had a time limit. Mum told me I should find time for my family and friends in my plan. I should think about everything carefully. She said I should not worry. I should be ready to make changes to my plan.
I can say that this plan helps me a lot. I really do everything in time. I also have time for my family and friends. I now believe that where there’s a will there’s a way.
