Despite the fact i study french right now, i would be grateful if someone correct my mistakes. Thank you beforehand.
A month ago i graduated from the university of architecture and civil engeneering in Voronezh. Now i'm trying to find an interesting and well paid job for the start of my career. Sounds like some sort of fantasy, i know. But i hope my dreams come true :)
It's not an easy thing to find a job when you're smart and perspective (and modest as you can see), but don't have any work experience. Sometimes i fall into a state of frustration and don't exactly know how ho realise my potential. And, on the other side i may feel pretty good and optimistic about my life, from time to time. Sounds like bipolar, but actually it's the way my brain tries to deal with problems. So, in september i'm set to going to Moscow. My friend offered me free living for about a month (she is great i know) and i will try to spend this month profitably.
By the way, i am not used to write about my life or my feelings in public. But a day ago i watched TED talk of a woman who speaked about getting out of your comfort zone. She said there were some sorts of risks to overcome, like intellectual, social and etc. So i chose social risk and now talk to you, strangers :)
To overcome my intellectual risk i read a lot about brain and cognitive structures.
I hope these overcomings will help me to change my life.
Thank you for reading all this looong text :)

Despite the fact (that) I study French right now, I would be grateful if someone would correct my mistakes. Thank you in advance.A month ago I graduated from the University of Architecture and Civil Engineering in Voronezh. Now I'm trying to find an interesting and well paid job for the start of (or "to start") my career. It sounds like some sort of fantasy, I know. But I hope my dreams come true :)
It's not an easy thing to find a job when you're smart and with good prospects (and modest as you can see), but don't have any work experience. Sometimes I fall into a state of frustration and don't exactly know how to realise my potential. And, on the other hand, I may feel pretty good and optimistic about my life from time to time. It sounds like bipolar, but actually it's the way my brain tries to deal with problems. So, in September I'm set to go to Moscow. My friend offered me free living for about a month (she is great I know) and I will try to spend this month profitably.
By the way, I am not used to writing about my life or my feelings in public. But a day ago I watched a TED talk of a woman who spoke about getting out of your comfort zone. She said there were some sorts of ("types of"?) risks to overcome, like intellectual, social and so on. So I chose social risk, and now I am talking to you, strangers :)
To overcome my intellectual risk I read a lot about brain and cognitive structures.
I hope these new steps out of my comfort zone* will help me to change my life.
Thank you for reading all this looong text :) OK you know "long" isn't spelt like that. In any kind of formal writing you can't really do that, nor use the lower case "i"s. But in informal message speak anything goes - a lot more is acceptable :)
* "overcomings" as a noun is problematic. It isn't really. At best, it's a gerund (a noun form of a verb), or otherwise a present participle. In either case, your usage would best be described as "non standard", or less kindly "wrong". If you really wanted to use this word in this form in more or less standard English, you'd have to go for something like "I hope my overcoming of these challenges .." :) But good writing. And good luck with the career, and life.

*I am not sure what you mean by perspective. But the word is being used wrong.
Also make sure you capitalize all proper nouns, like the title of a school. The word "I" must be capitalized all the time.

Thank you for your comment and for books you reccomend. Right now i'm waiting for Daniel Kahneman 'Judgment Under Uncertainty: Heuristics and Biases' to deliver. And i deffinately read the books you recomended. I read a little about cognition traps in lesswrong.com blog, but i'd like to know more :)

I'm moved by your words. I've read <Scarcity>, by Sendhil Mullainathan and Eldar Shafir, and <Thinking, Fast and Slow>, by Daniel Kahneman. They both talk about how cognitive behavior shapes us and how to avoid the cognition trap. Maybe you will be interested in.
