Big Fish in a Small Pond

A big fish in a small pond I was introduced to Costa Rica last summer and I was introduced to a new culture and lifestyle. The national slogan "Puravida" is a daily greeting, I ride a bicycle along the dirt bike to the city for a Spanish course. "Pure life" is an essential element of Costa Rica's identity in this increasingly globalized world. In the town where I live, people will work for the day's fishing, guided tours and the next three days of vacation and will show a different lifestyle from American entrepreneurs.

For some people, going from a big fish in a small pond to a small fish in a big pond is annoying.

For me, this is the sum of the ideas I have to forget about happiness and success. I think there are many problems in this view, especially as a lesson to children. This article is not true for children or parents. This article is for those who are considering taking a big step in a new direction. This news is quite obvious to me, but in particular because I stab about almost all of us through the public school system in some way. As an adult, we are responsible for exploring and elucidating this restrictive assumption so that we can freely follow our fate. So it's for this article:
