It's the feeling of accomplishment for helping people with problems. It is to feel important in society because without you the world wouldn't be what it is today. It's to do a job that is not the same every day, your day is never the same as the other. Sometimes it's difficult because some people don't cooperate with the process. They need to pass over this and tell themselves that they do a difference even if they don't realise it.
A social worker help people with their mental health, physical health, social issues or financial problems. They help families in need and people who are victims of abuse or violence. They assist people who are victims of oppression, discrimination, unemployment, and poverty. They help people in many different ways, like therapy, social policy analysis, community capacity building, health promotion, research, and collaboration with other professions. This is the global task of a social worker.
There are many types of clients, a social worker can work whit babies and the day after with an old man. I will describe a day of a social worker that works in a secondary school with adolescents. You arrive at school at eight o'clock and you go to your office to read your note of the day after. You look at the schedules to see which class you have today. At 8h30, you go to the class and welcome the student. You need to ask them if they doing well because at their house it is not easy. During a good day, you just need to help the teacher whit the smooth running of the class. In a bad day, you need to control the anxiety of the student, anger, or sadness. They tell you their problem, because they trust you.

In three years, I see myself starting to work in my old secondary school (it's my dream). I will get my diploma and be the best version of myself for the people I will help. I will be someone who listens to others and I will take every declaration seriously. I will like to be a grind for the adolescent that I would help, that's my goal. My goal it is to finish my study in three years and pass all my classes. I will not go to the university because I am exited to go work to this school.
