Life Lessons from Aesop's Fables

Episode 12: The Two Goats

"A person who’s really inspired me to do something is actually my uncle Dave, who started his own tech company about 5 years ago.He’s now turned it into a highly successful company, employing over 50 people today, which I think is a very inspirational story.

 I’ve always had an interest in anything related to technology, especially computers, and my uncle both inspired and motivated me to make the decision to study computer science in college.

I had to make this decision about 3 years ago, at which time I was at a crossroads in my life, and was at my wits end trying to decide something that I knew would affect my whole future life in a pretty short space of time. However, after getting some inspirational advice from my uncle Dave, I decided to follow in his footsteps, and study computer programming. 

The main reason I find him such an inspiration is that he started this business from scratch, while still only in his early twenties, and within only 3 years turned it into the success it is today. I watched him when he first started in this business, and how he poured his heart and soul into it ,to get the business going, and I’m always so inspired by the way he literally eat’s, sleeps and breathes the business .

 Even though his business has grown so much, he still never  sits back, and keeps working hard to keep growing and expanding the business,and always goes the extra mile, which is something that really motivates, and inspires me to keep studying hard. 

 
Thank you….."

Bird

To day we're talking about the word "virtually" and "practically". I hope you find this vocabulary useful! These are both words that we can use to say that something is almost completely true.
