I would say that the goal that I want to achieve and it’s really difficult to achieve is working overseas. The reason why I said it was really difficult because it requires a lot of process and stages. For example, like you need to prepare for the language for those kind of countries like the target countries that you want to work, you need to learn and spend a lot of time to learn that language. If it’s not English language, then you need to learn a new alphabet. For example, memorize a new language is quite difficult. And you need also to understand about the vocabulary that is used for certain industry, I mean like certain field. if you’re working as IT engineer you need to know exactly the vocabulary that is usually used in daily life and for example when I tried to work overseas I was focused and concerned on education so yeah I need to find a lot of suitable vocabulary relating to education on those new language and then the difficult things also comes from the administration. You need to fulfill all the administration needed like passport for example and then translating document or everything relating to the document and administration and sometimes you need also a letter of support from the government and it’s really hard to achieve that recommendation because a lot of people also might try to apply it at the same time and you need to take the war, like join the war with other people and then as I said before if we try to make it like the whole step the order step is the first one you need to prepare the language the second one you need to fulfill all the documents needed and the third one you need to prepare the money and the financial support.

I would say that the goal I wanted to achieve, which was really difficult, was working overseas. The reason I found it difficult was that it requires a lot of processes and stages. For example, you need to prepare for the language of the target countries where you want to work. You need to learn and spend a lot of time mastering that language. If it's not English, then you need to learn a new alphabet. Memorizing a new language is quite challenging. You also need to understand the vocabulary used in a certain industry. For instance, if you're working as an IT engineer, you need to know the vocabulary that is commonly used in daily life. When I tried to work overseas, I focused on education, so I needed to find a lot of suitable vocabulary related to education in that new language. The difficulties also came from the administration. You need to fulfill all the administrative requirements, like obtaining a passport, translating documents, and everything related to documentation and administration. Sometimes, you also need a letter of support from the government, and it's really hard to obtain that recommendation because many people might be trying to apply at the same time. You need to compete with others. As I mentioned before, if we break it down into steps, the first step is to prepare the language, the second is to fulfill all the necessary documents, and the third is to prepare the financial support.
