Whether you think you can or you cannot, you're right! I was born and grew up in a province where not many people can speak English. I was so shy and reserved. I always dreamt of speaking English fluently so I could make friends with many, many people but I didn't know how to communicate with foreigners. I was not confident enough. I was about to cry and hated myself so many times. One day, I read in my sister's book this sentence: " If you think you can, you can. And if you think you can't, you're right.". It's the saying of Mary Kay Ash that makes me change. I decided that If I couldn't win over my phobias, I couldn't success in anything. I plan to study hard, encourage myself to be more confident and communicate with other people more positively. Now I feel much better and would like to make more friends overseas. I know my English is still not good. I hope that through Italki I can make more friends, improve my English and learn from others. Thanks for reading! Have a nice day!! <3
