My autobiography

I'm Matías and I was born in Santiago on April 8th, 1995.
I studied in the Alonso de Ercilla Institute between 2003 and 2014. After  take the PSU, the points that I obtain lets me enter to study psychology the Faculty of Social Science at Universidad de Chile. Actually I'm in fourth year and I would like to work in sports psychology.

About my family, I can tell you that we are a small family. I live with my mom near Santa Isabel subway station (in case you want to visit me <3). I have a sister and she is 31. Now she's living with us because she broke with her boyfriend recently and she's very sad, she need's family love and I with my mum give her a lot of them. My dad lives in Ecuador five years ago. He traveled for job.

One thing that I like to do is go to the gym to work in by body. Is an important thing for me because I like to think that I have it's control. I like the sensation that you feel after finish a good training session too. Not always I can feel that but always try to do my best.
I enjoy to read about sports psychology, motivation and other books that relate about it. Recently I read this list of books:

  1. "Everything can be trained" (Toni Nadal)
  2. "Leadership" (Alex Ferguson)
  3. "Open" (Andre Agassi)
  4. "Del Potro's Miracle" (Sebastian Torok)
  5. "Shoe Dog" (Autobiography for the Nike creator, Phil Knight)
  6. "Rafa, my history" (Rafael Nadal)

My professional decison!

I choose psychology because is the only way to continue link to sports, tennis especially. Kinesiology, nutritionist and fitness teacher were alternatives that I evaluated in the past, but I think "A lot of people is working in kinesiology, and the same with nutrition and fitness teacher, but sports psychology is not very developed in Chile". For that I would like to work is sports psychology, to help sportsman to manage their best performance in the courts, rings, etc.  Changing the topic, m y experience at the university until now was strange, because I'm very different to the other FACSO guys. They like to go to party, drink alcohol, smoke tabaco and weed, and listen to music very hard. The sport on Faculty isn't an important think.  But I like to sleep early, take care of my body, I don't drink and smoke drugs, and I don't like listen to music hard. I think that is a altethe's life. See you soon <3

But not all of us do the necesary things to make our dreams real. A lot of times, when the challenge forces us to get out for our comfort zone, we put an excuse and we don't deal it. This attitude works in a lot of different situations: in the university, in the homeworks, in the social life, etc. What happen when you have a good idea, but in a few time you see a lot of difficulties to make it real? Maybe both of us know the answer. Today I will challenge you to get out your comfort zone. You know yourself better than me, you own limits and fears. Try to make a little challenges first: come to talk an unknow person, make a post or live streaming on your InstaGram talking about whatever you like, etc. I try to do this every day and I need to say that is very, very difficult. Fears overtakes you. A lo...
