The aim justifies the means...
Does the aim justify the means?Of course it does. I am a very confident person and in achieving my goals I have to be not only persistent, but I have to invest both time and effort. I am a kind of a person, who has got used to get everything at the very particular time. I agree that the aim justifies the means, because I don't see any reasons that can stop me on my way.
I am not the kind of person who will think carefully of all possible means before doing something. Sometimes I turn to rather radical means, but in most cases that very spontaneous decision which comes to my mind finds it realisation with the help of means which of course comes first to my mind respectively. While doing something I become so obsessed with the aim, that I completely forget about anyhing else. My mother says that I am like an avalanche which swallows up everything on its way. To tell the truth, she disapproves of this character trait of mine. But I don't see any weak points in it. I think that the person should be confident in what he or she does.
But from my own experience I can say that I can choose the means needed. I would never sacrifice my relatives and my close people in reaching my goals. Aim is aim, but human relations are very important. The man is a creator of his fate, but in achieving his aims he has to be a little bit selective. Because our personal interests shouldn't harm others.

Family values in our changing world
Everything changes in our modern world. And the views upon family are not an exception. Unfortunately, such a tendency is observed not only in Russia, but all over the world. Family values and the family unit itself, have always been the base of human relationship, because it is exactly family where every human being starts its complicated lifetime size long way.
A typical family used to consist of mother, father and two children, but in recent years there have been many changes in family life. One of the reasons why fewer couples are having children is shortage of money, lack of job, and of course the high cost of living. Some of these reasons have also been caused by new laws and others are results of changes in society. For example, since the law made it easier to get a divorce, the number of divorces has considerably increased. Another change has been caused by the fact that people are living longer today and many old people live alone following the death of their partners. In general each generation is keen to become independent of parents in establishing their own family unit, and this fact can lead to social as well as geographical differences within the larger family group. But in recent years marriage rates have fallen as a result of increased expectations on the part of women and changes in lifestyle. The main reason why more and more men and women are staying single may be because of the fashionable social trend of being independent, self-confident and prospective person. And children are the evident obstacle on this way. Relationships within the family are also different now. Parents treat their children more than equals then they used to, and children have more extra freedom to make their own decisions. The father is more involved with bringing up the children, often because the mother goes out to work. Increased leisure facilities and more money mean that there are greater opportunities for individual to take an active part in activities outside their homes.
As for me, I have a very clear idea of what my future family might be. First of all, the notion family is a great responsibility for me for the rest of my life. Because when you decide to get married or give birth to your baby, you must realize that you begin a new step in your life and this decision should be well-thought and desirable. Family life should not be treated as an experiment, in the course of which some drawbacks can be bolstered, or a new one can be set out. The value of my family will be in its completeness and a tender attachment to each other. Respect will be treated as a great rule, which must be followed. My family unit will be a place, where you always will be eager to come back, without which each member of the family will not be able to exist. It would be cozy and warm, where everyone loves and is loved. But I know that such an ideal can be achieved only when you are sure in your partner, when you know that this is exactly that person who can make all you dreams come true and in whom you are absolutely sure. So, it isn’t worth hurrying up and then make your children suffer from you wrong choice.

If you are to set up your own business, what kind of business would it be and why?
Well, to begin with, if I were to have such a chance, sure, I wouldn’t loose it. First of all, it would solve all my possible financial problems, then, it would meet all my needs. But please, don’t think that I am selfish, and stingy, conducting my own business and getting money from it, I would help those who really need my money. For instance, I would help my parents in their old-ages and build orphanages for homeless pets with special vet aid and feeding. Now, I have to decide what kind of business to choose, to put my plans into realization.
To tell the truth, I am not the one who gets to grips with all the possible business prospects. But according to psychological research and tests, I am a potential entrepreneur. And I am going to choose such a business, which by no means will go bust. I know that land business and immovable property trade are the most profitable in our country. But land business is very often very cruel and dishonest, because “black estate agents” posses other people’s land illegally. As it is said, among the two evils we should choose the least, so I choose immovable estate business.
Why not? It is rather harmless, but I am going to lead a fair business and invest money with other investors’ help. I would have different professional teams, such as: managers, well-trained estate agents, creative designers and professional builders. My buildings, offices, trade centers, blocks of flats would be available for everyone. I would take into consideration different social programs: such as kindergartens, schools and educational institutions. I don’t want our future generation to study in rebuilt and transformed buildings. I would consider good credit programs for young families. I would provide our citizens with new available houses at a fair price. The results would be fruitful both for me and my companions and for those who would have chosen my company. How pleasant it would be to drive around the city and see your qualitative buildings, to know that you provide you customers with good service and to get enough money to lead a wonderful life and help others.

You are young, you are beautiful. Are you happy?
Yes, I'm young, I'm beautiful and I should say I'm happy. I can't see any reasons why I shouldn't be happy.But youth and appearance are not the only reasons for happiness. For my still early ages I have almost everything, which an ordinary girl would like to have.I appreciate this. The notion of hapiness is a very deep one and very diverse. For some people it's just material pleasures and public recognition. For others it's just what when you do your own thing and no one and nothing disturbes you. But for me, it is an overwhelming satisfaction with your life, with your attitude to it. For me being happy means being satisfied with everything that surrouns you. Because when you are discontent, various problems appear everytime, and their size differs from the tiny up to the enormous ones. And this brings disharmony. As a French philosopher Laroshfucko said:"A man never is so unhappy as it seems to him, or so happy as he wants it to be."
