Word of Advice #3



I asked my friend Catalina, who's Colombian and studies Social Work in Germany, about her advice and she was very curious to understand why. Why her? Why those questions? What's the theme? So I told her that the idea behind "Word of Advice" was to obtain the immediate reaction of people without providing them with a lot of context. This way, they would intuitively search within themselves the advice that they consider to be most valuable and thus we can create a space where people could find advice when they need it. Then, convinced she was not selling her soul to the devil, she answered:

  1. The best advice that I received is: "life always puts mirrors before you, in people that surround you; pay attention to them, so you don't fall on the same path or make the same mistakes." 

  1. My best advice is: "you are strong, so you can fly as high as you want. Stand up and continue the battle, because the war is only over when you depart."

Word of Advice #2


The first one to respond to my questions was my friend María Fernanda. She's from Colombia and lives in Germany. She studied Marketing and is about to start her masters in Management. Without hesitation, she answered: 

  1. The best advice that I've ever received: "above all things, never forget who you are. Never forget what God has done in your life and where he has brought you." 

  1. My best advice is: "don't believe that yours is the most impossible dream; don't let it go, because if you do so, life would make no sense. Everything is possible as long as you breathe and have faith in God."
