“I built up a growth mindset. I was working out hard. I had a higher position in the cleaning company as a supervisor in just 12 months of being there…
It seems like it all started with that decision though. Can you distill what that decision was in your mind? If you can articulate it?
So, as I said, it was just thinking about where do you wanna go? Do you wanna keep drinking alcohol? Do you wanna keep wasting your life? And you know, being hopeless in Australia and then go back to Colombia and be a useless guy for my parents. Or do you want to really have what you want in life? Do you want to create the life you want? That was a the decision and I said, fuck it. I wanna try my best to stay in Australia. I have just one goal; extend my visa. I wanna try my best to do that.”
