Yes, yes, this is homework again. I enjoyed writing and talking with you too much that I want to do every homework, but there are some topics that I simply cannot master. Since this is related to my sad side of life. But now is not about that.
Today we are going to talk about my greatest achievement in life. First, a brief background!
I have not lived with my parents already at the age of 17 (for Russia this is a frequent occurrence, I would not say that this is normal, but it happens really often). Naturally, from the age of 17 I had to work, for example, for a month as a waitress or a delivery boy. But in my life there was a total revolution when, in my next job search, I saw one of the coolest floristic studios in my city.I went there and asked to arrange me for absolutely any job, since I urgently needed money. I was almost sure that I would not be hired, because I had absolutely no skills in working with flowers! But fate decided otherwise, and now, they decided to teach me floristry completely from scratch!
Thus, I got to where I felt extremely easy. Floristry was given to me as if I had been studying flowers and bouquets all my life. In 1 year, I grew from a florist assistant to a decorator-florist. And after 2 years I became the deputy director. For 5 years of work in floristry, I managed to work with international florists, make weddings in different cities of my country, and even managed to make a wedding in Montenegro! I personally supervised the decoration of 3 luxury weddings!
I have a diploma from the Higher School of Floristics in Russia. And I passed it with honors! So I, too, am now a specialist in the international format! And I'm really proud of it!
What is your biggest achievement in your life? Or are you just on the way to it?

It's awesome how you almost fell into something that you turned out to be so naturally suited for! Maybe even more awesome how you worked for it. I don't care how talented you may be, they weren't going to promote anyone the way they did you unless that person was really busting their ass all the time. So congrats on doing the work to turn an initial spark of luck into a warming blaze of accomplishement!
