Education

If you ask me what advice I would give to a student who is about to enter college, the first thing I would say is to try to find out as soon as possible the things they are most passionate about, and from that basis, try to find a suitable career to be as satisfied as possible during their years of study. Many times young people do not have much clarity about what to study and end up in a career motivated by money or because someone recommended it to them, but without being completely convinced, which makes it very likely that they will end up abandoning it in the future. I would also recommend that the first few months after entering, try to be as focused and committed as possible to the university, until you are able to adapt to the rhythm and the extensive daily routines. I would also advise you not to get discouraged if your results, in terms of grades, are not what you expected, since it is very common that we all start with low grades, but with the necessary effort and dedicati...

Religion

¿Is religion important to me?, I would say yes, although it has always been a topic that generates a lot of controversy for me, because I am a person who hardly believe in things that are not scientifically proven. Nevertheless, religion is useful to me because it gives me faith in someone and I feel that I have a support in difficult times. I think it has served me a lot in different stages of my life. Although I am more inclined to the Christian religion, I think it is very difficult to believe a 100% in everything it says, and I do not share or like the idea of thinking that if we are not almost perfect, there will be someone who will judge us and send us to an eternal punishment. What I really believe in is a version created by me of the Christian religion. Since I agree with many things christians believe , I think that a supreme God may exist and that bad people will be punished at some point, but I do not believe that it is the way it appears in the bible I believe that each per...

Healthcare System

First of all, I would like to start by saying that in my opinion the health service in Chile is quite deficient and leaves much to be desired. Just look at the huge lines that have always existed in the doctor's offices to get an hour for medical service, and not to mention the endless waits when an operation is required, as in the case of my mother who required a fairly simple intervention and had to wait more than 2 years to be called. Even those waits can be much longer and sometimes patients are called for surgery when they are already dead. Another deficient point related to health, is the practically null concern for people's mental health, nowadays practically all of us have some problem of this type, whether it is anxiety, stress, panic crisis, insomnia, etc. And it is only recently that this problem has begun to become more visible and more weight is beginning to be given to this serious situation. One way to improve the public health system in general, could be to inv...
