Before I finished my first semester of studying in LUNN, I got such an interesting challenge, to make English as a part of my everyday life. So I’ll spend 30, 45 or 60 minutes “to living in English” every day. I’ll see what it will bring ☺️

/Actually my vacation started two days ago,but I think it’s never late to start! /

As the first step, I started reading the book,I wanted to read for a long time. It’s “ Sense And Sensibility” written by Jane Austin. I read for 30 minutes, but it’s just the beginning.:)

I chose that book because I like Jane Austin’s style,how she describes people and nature and connections between people and world which surrounds them. I know that it’s British English and moreover I noticed some old structures of sentences,but anyway it’s English and I’m sure I’ll enjoy this book.😌

And as the second step, I watched TED talk “What are you willing to give up to change the way we work”

The man,who spoke about this theme, told his own life story and how he changed his understanding of work in team. He explained that to be more productive you should work with specialists from different spheres and it will make your work faster and more interesting. And also there are no rules of the basic principles of organizations , because everything depends on the certain company, project, people.

The main question was “What are you willing to give up?” Then he understood that Change is not only about embrace the new, it’s about giving up on some of the old as well.

I guess it’s all for now:) I’m looking forward to watch and learn more and more.💪🏻
