No matter how hard the situation you are facing is, you should never give up. Try to do your best and at the end of the day, even if you don't get your goal or sort out the difficulties, at least you will be proud of yourself.
In a society and at a time where there's only place for success, you must also be ready for failures and be ready to overcome them or any other obstacles. That's what makes us stronger. We are succeeding in overcoming the Covid-19 pandemic and we are far stronger now than two years ago.
Here's my musical hint for today and that's what Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush advise us to do: Don't give up and here's a version with the lyrics for you to sing along...

Never give up, is too easy to say, but there are days that you really feel bad, when nothing comes out the way you wanted and everything you were avoiding ends up happening. But on one of those days it easy to go to bed and say "tomorrow will be another day" and suppose that it will be better.
ResponderEliminarThe problem comes when you wake up the next day and you realize that everything remains the same, that the problem you had yesterday you still having it and that nothing goes well. There is the most difficult moment, when everyone knows you're wrong but no one can help you, not even yourself. Your friends and family try to encourage you and help you but you realize that their effort is useless and that no matter how much they said you "never give up" that if you don't said yourself "I will not give up" all that help will be useless.
I think everyone has been through something like this at least once in their life, and ones you have gone through it, you will realize that not giving up its more difficult that it seems, but it is also true that every time that you get out of a bad moment, you get stronger to the point that every time they tell you don't yo give up, you will laugh and you will think "if I did not give up at that time, I am not going to give up now".
All people have gone through better and worse moment in their lives, and those moments are what have led them to be the way they are now.

ResponderEliminarDay after day, many people in different situations may tell you to never give up, but they don't really know what you're dealing with every day.
ResponderEliminarYes, it is true that with every thing or situation that you overcome, you become stronger, but in reality every failure takes a bit of illusion and can even demotivate you sometimes.
We can't always be 100%, there are times when you just can't do your best, and that's when you need to know that you can do anything that you decide to do.

Never give up, is the sentence. I am very agree with it, if you propose something, you can achieve it. An example is Pedro Benito, is a football player of Cadiz B. He has been in a lot of places playing football, but also studying with good marks. Pedro Benito’s dream was to be a Cadiz Cf’s player. He has played for Swansea, Anorthosis, UD Almería, UCAM and others. When he was a child saud that he was very thin. And Pedro worked day after day to improve his physique. The las match that Cadiz played against Valencia in LaLiga, Pedro made his debut with de first team.

In our life, we have to face off with a lot of things, and they are not easy.

Is very important we organize our time and learn to concentrated better and easier in the little time possible. Is a period of time that we are very nervous and we think we are going to fail the exams. We can not give up because is very important we learn and have good marks to have a better future and to have a better job. The lenguages are very important to our live because if we will go to work or live out we need it.
We have to give the better of we and always try things and never give up.

I was on the maritimo ride with my friends, it was a sunny day.
ResponderEliminarSuddenly, one of my friends says that we had not brought water. Immediately Alejandro ran to the nearest supermarket. He was very nervous because we had no water. Suddenly we saw in the distance a musician asking for help because he had fallen.
Fortunately, a graffiti artist told me about the idea of calling a rescue ambulance for the Busker. When I was calling the anbulancia rescue my friend searched in the street and said to him
Finally, the rescue effort arrived and they saved him. Abel Martínez Padilla
Never give up, is to easy, but there are days that you really feel bad, when nothing of that you want pass, or when you received a bad notice. These days you think to go to sleep and that tomorrow will be another day.
ResponderEliminarThe problem comes when you wake up the next day and you return to pass a bad day. Sometimes we can have a bad week, with the exams, or some personal situations. These days or weeks I prefer to be alone and quiet without anyone bothering me. Your family and friends try to encourage you and help, but sometimes the problem don´t have solution and in other situation they are the ones who make you see that it isn´t a big deal or they see a solution that you don´t see.
I think everyone has been through something like this at least once in their life. I must told they that it is also true that every time that you get out of a bad moment, you get stronger. We must think that this situation is temporary, and all in this life pass.
All people have gone throught better and worse days or weeks in their lives, but all in this life pass, we must enjoy of the good times.
3 years ago I was with my parents and some friends of my parents taking a walk through a deserted area, we were all well prepared, when suddenly, my mother's friend said that we have very little water left. In those moments we all got nervous because it was high temperatures. My father came up with the idea of calling someone who can rescue us from that bad experience and he called some forest rescue workers.
ResponderEliminarWhen the helpers arrived at the area where we were, they located us in his truck and took us back to town, and all this because we lacked water.

The pandemic of COVID-19 has taught us that if we work together, we can do big things. Sometimes it’s difficult, but we have to continue if we want to achieve our objectives.
ResponderEliminarWhen we have a challenge like selectivity exams or a competition, we have to be prepared and study and train. We can think that it is impossible, but we have to be motivated.
There are some moments when we need the help of our family, friends and teachers, and this is good. During history, people have achieved important things in collaboration with other people, for example: overcome pandemics, change the government, revolutions, manifestations…
I think that we have to learn to fail too, because it’s part of the life. The most relevant aspect is the lesson that we learn when we achieve the objectives, but also when we lose. The mistakes are important to progress.

We are facing problems and difficulties every day, most of which are easy to solve with more or less effort. But there are these problems, those problems that we can’t solve and stay there. We try, try and try it and nothing.
ResponderEliminarIt is easy to say “don’t give up”, but we know that it is more complicated than this to do. The problem is bigger and bigger, and we don’t just know what to do. We do not ask for help because of our pride. We think that tomorrow, would be another day, and it would disappear alone. We wake up, and we know that it is again, and we start to panic.
It is like when we have a test, and we say it is in one week, "I have a lot of time", we believe. And the last night before the test, we start crying and panicking and thinking "Why didn't I start some days before?".
We must know to give a solution to a problem just at the moment that we have it. And if we do not have them, we should think of answers in the next few days. And if you have the same problem as my example, you should organize your time.
This is the year that we must strive the most since it is the last year in high school and if we want to go to study abroad we must do our best to get the highest grade, but all this is something that makes us feel very pressured and that is not it's good. Being pressured makes us be confused when studying and that if we do not achieve what we had proposed we are wrong with ourselves, but this should not be the case, since if we have tried everything we could we should feel very proud of us.
ResponderEliminarI am a person who gets overwhelmed very quickly and I also put a lot of pressure on myself, this is something that should change as soon as possible since it hurts me a lot when I have to concentrate on studying. Also when I have an exam I feel very nervous and this makes me forget things or not know how to continue.
In the exams we must be as relaxed as possible and thus be able to read and do everything well. When in an exam we see something that we do not know how to do, then we leave it blank and continue with our exam and once we have finished everything else we get on with it, but we must do all this relaxed.
In conclusion, this year is a challenge for us and it is a mental challenge, in which we must become aware of the situation and do our best to give our best. We also have to organize the time very well to carry all the subjects well.

We all are told not to give up. All of us have good days when we are productive, we meet our friends and have a good time in general. However, sometimes we have bad days in which we might think that we won't reach our goals, in which we feel that all the efforts that we put on something are in vain, and in which we think about giving up these things because we don't see ourselves able to reach them.
ResponderEliminarIn these cases is when the sentence "never give up" becomes very meaningful. If we don't give up, even when we have bad days, we will reach all of our goals one day. Some of them will be easier to reach, and other will be very hard, but the harder is the goal to reach, the more happiness we will feel when we reach it.
The COVID-19 has also taught us to stay positive even when we think that the day can't get worse. Although everyday we saw huge numbers of deaths and infected people, we have learnt to spend our time with our family, to value our health, to appreciate jobs like pilots, nurses, lorry drivers... And while we are learning that, we are overcoming the pandemic and becoming stronger than before it.
To sum up, we all have bad days, so it's normal to think about giving up our goals. However, we have to stay positive and never give up so we can reach everything we want.
Sometimes everything we want is not achieved so easily, everything we achieve has its work, there are things that need more time and others less. If we really want something, we must fight for it and do everything we can to achieve it.
ResponderEliminarIf we really want something we must fight until we get it, there will be days when we are super motivated and we think we are going to get it, but there are other days that are a bit bad and we think we are not going to get it. Get it. We have to think that everything can be achieved with more or less effort but we must never give up.
A situation that we have today is the covid, since we are getting out of this situation or making the effort but right now we will get out of all this and we can lead a normal life. This situation is to realize that you can get out of everything, with more or less effort, but it can be done. Another thing that is very important in this situation is that we must all be together.
Anyway, everything can be achieved but it takes effort and time, if we really want it, we have to fight. There are moments in life when things will not turn out the way we want but that should give us more strength to fight more for what we want and in the end we will achieve it and we must be very proud of ourselves.
Every effort has its rewards.

ResponderEliminarnever give up !!!
ResponderEliminarIt is a very interesting phrase, and with a lot of teeth, "never give up" is something that we all must understand and understand since this will help us a lot in our day to day.
We must all understand this and think that if we give up we will never know if we could have achieved it with more effort or not, we always have to fight for what you want to achieve and achieve, because if you try with all your strength in the end you will be able to achieve it and If for some reason you do not succeed, you can always feel proud of having tried.
It is so necessary to understand this well because if it is understood well it is much more difficult to get depressed for not achieving something since if you have tried with all your might and you do not succeed, it will mean that what you were trying to do is not possible and you will accept it much better than if you did not. you have tried with all your might.
In conclusion I think that nobody has to give up when seeing difficult circumstances and face them without fear, if we all did this, society would improve a lot and we would all be happier.
Since I was little, I have always been taught that giving up is not an option. It doesn´t matter how difficult it´s the situation that you are living; you have to fight. What's the worst that can happen? If you succeed, then you can be happy because you have reached your goal, but if you don´t, then you can also be happy because then you have learned.
ResponderEliminarI think that being proud of ourselves is something super important, but for that, we also have to strive… If we don't do anything to be proud of, we can never be, so that's why it's important not to give up. We have to do our best to achieve all of our goals.
It´s also important to know that you can make mistakes and admit and accept that you have made a mistake. Sometimes, when we make mistakes or fail to achieve our goals, we get sad and feel useless... That is such a mistake. The first step to achieving success is to love ourselves and know that we can make mistakes because… we are human!
Despite this, there are people who can´t think this for themselves and when they fail, they feel anxious and stressed... In these situations, I think that the best option is going to a psychologist or a professional doctor who can help you with these problems. Mental illness is a very serious topic that shouldn´t be joked about.

Sometimes there are things that are difficult to achieve that’s why I like the phrase ‘ Never
ResponderEliminargive up’.
I think that if you want something, you can get it with effort. One of the things that you shouldn’t do is give up.
This years are very important in our lifes because the grade will decide where we go to study. I'm trying to get good marks but sometimes it is complicated because we have many exams and we are overwhelmed.
I am a very nervous person and I get overwhelmed very quickly, I think that it’s bad because when I arrived to the exams I forget many things.
Sometimes, there are days when things aren’t the way that you want them but I think that If you do the things well you get everything you set out to do.

Climate change is something for which we are partly responsible for it, since we pollute by throwing our garbage into the seas and oceans, with the fumes from cars since these are very harmful for the increase in the greenhouse effect. The temperature on our planet will not stop rising, this will cause very serious problems such as the melting of glaciers and poles, this will cause the sea level to rise and can bring with it the flooding of entire populations.
