Which one inspire me to write
When I am going to write I think a lot about the topic. Sometimes I have many ideas on my head. Then I want to write them immediately. It is a special moment for me and it is very satisfactory. If I like the topic or the motive because I need to write, in both cases is very easy do it.
However it is very difficult when is the opposite; I do not know how to start. Then this is my ritual: I must find a way, for example: in my job I imagine the results of my written document. I said: “When you finish this document you will be happy and proud”. I achieved write this text because I thought: “I must accomplish with my goals, I want to be bilingual and travel to other countries”.
Then my advice to write something is that you need to be motivated when you are going to write because will be easier for you. You must find a point of start, when you cannot find it you must use your creativity. You must associate something related that you like it or you should think in your objectives and goals, friends, family. You can say: “when I finish this I could go to visit to my girlfriend, I will have free time”. You can think in a prize for you.

Am I Writer?
Writing is a complex process where you need to be careful with your ideas. Sometimes you can express a feeling, but the reader can interpret other one.
I learnt to write when I was six years. When I was 11 I remember I wrote a story about little riding hood, I mean I inspired in this story. There were three little riding hood because the topic of the subject Arts was primary color. The same year I learnt the importance about spelling. Moving on 2007 when I was 16 I wrote an essay about Economy for participating in a contest. The prize was a scholarship for studying at Jorge Tadeo Lozano University in Bogota, so are you wondering: “did you win?” No, I did not. But I was very happy with my essay and I wrote because I liked, it was not a homework.
After I Finally decided to study Telematics Engineer. In 2009 I participated again in a contest about writing a tale organized by the press and the ministry of Education in Colombia. The contest sill is organized and its name is Concurso Nacional de Cuento. I did not win.
Now in my job I write emails every day. Sometimes I have no patience and I do not review my test several times because I am very confident, then I have some mistakes of cohesion. Never spelling. When I write an email I always want to press quickly the send button.
Finally I need to write about my experience with this essay, I am a Spanish speaker and I am learning English, this has been difficult for me because I think in Spanish I have many abilities for writing, I have told me: “this is not looks like my writing in Spanish”, “I have no linking words” and “my ideas are simples”, however I reflected: “oh Diego, this is normal, you are learning”.

Who Am I?
If you was born in the decade of 90s you will recognize this title. This movie inspire me to put this title to my text and a homework, of course.
I am going to write about my life in a few sentences.
Mi name is Diego. I am 25 years-old. I am single. I live in Colombia which is the only country in south America with two oceans. I work in a higher education institution, something like a college. There I am a support Engineer. I manage the network computers and help to manage a platform in moodle.
My dayly routine is very common. Although I change the order of some activities. For example: some days, first I am going to a GYM in the morning more or less 6:00 A.M. When I finish then I go to my work. The place where I work is close to the GYM. I always take my lunch since my home.My mother or father prepare it. At 12:00 I have my lunch. Then I study english for 15 or 20 minutes.
When I return to my home in the evening I take a vehicle called moto carro. Please see the second image in the link. (I know it. it is not necessary specify it!)
At my home I have my dinner at 6:30 P.M or 7:00 P.M oclock. When I change the order to go to the Gym, I wake up at 6:00 A.M. I have my breakfast and I take a "motocarro" until my work. I pay around 1.3 american dollars doing the conversion because the official money in Colombia is the Peso.
Well, that's all friends. I could continue but It would be too for you help me to correct the text. Thanks if you still are Reading.

How can you think in English?
To answer the question, first I want to speak a little about my learning process.
I am an user of Duolingo since August 2015. If you do not know what is, I will define: it is a App and a site web for learning a new language. Althought I put me the goal to be bilingual when 2015 started, I did not have the objetive. However I could mantain my interest to study english by using Duolingo. Now I have a streak of 191 days and I do not want lose it. But it is necesary for me do not translate more. Many exercises in Duolingo are of translating, I mean, I need to stop use this app. In my case I have to translate English to Spanish and Spanish (I would say: and viceversa). To resume this app has help me to get the goal in my mind. But now I must be more fluent.
I want to recomends this places:
