Hey all, Look, I´m 32, and leave to be fast and nervous after my 25. Why? From my 20 to 25, I was working for a job that consumes me so much, and somedays I arrive on my house nervous and crying. Yes, crying! And I´m a big man!
Well, after leaving this job, I promise to myself I will not have a heart attack younger. Since that, I try to make my own life better. Of course sometimes I still being nervous, but nothing that can be bypassed with an little walk or a cup of coffe talking jokes.
