One of the most important decisions I have ever made or decided to prepare for an exam, I made the decisions about a year ago when I realized that at least I was playing an important role in my future education and career. At first, I was very confident because my English skills were quite weak, especially my writing and speaking. However, after talking to my teachers and doing some research, I understood that getting a good IELTS chart or it opens up many opportunities such as studying abroad or applying for better jobs in the future. Therefore, I decided to spend at least 2 hours everyday improving my English. It surely has not been easy. Easy! Sometimes I feel discouraged because I made slow progress practically in writing. Nevertheless, I keep practicing by learning new vocabulary, watching English videos and writing these days regularly. Over time, I became much more confident in using English. I think this was an important decision because it changed my daily habits and motivates me to work harder. It also taught me that success requires patience and consistency, although I have not reached my target structure yet. I believe that I believe these decisions had already had a positive impact on my future.
