Hello Miss Ale,
There lots of ways to success, if the easier way is not usefull their always there other ways to success, it doesnt matter how difficult they can be. They told me this lots of times. If you take the elevator, it does all for you otherwise if you take the stair, you will but all your energy and effort. If we let other people to do things for us, just as the elevator, we would never learn to do things for ourselves.
Example:
If you never do your homework alone with out help, when you are left alone, you are going to have problems for solving it.

Hello Mrs Ale!!!!
I think this quotient means:
Taking the elevator would be like if I have a job I would have to do my job, I don't need somebody else to do so if you take the stairs it would be like if you are doing your things porperly. You have to make an effort to acomplish your job so that means that you have to make and effort to walk up the stairs and not take the elevator, taking the elevator could be like not making an effort so you won´t accomplish what you wanted to do.
Bye!!

Hello Miss Ale!
ii think that what the quotation mean is that there is always a way to arrive to your goal. That in life nothing is that simple. We say that it is better to go by elevator but why is it better for us? we think that we are not going to get tired, that we are going to get first. But it while you wait the elevator you are waiting and losing your time. When you are in a big building you don't think of using stair because you would be more that tired then. So in some way the elevator is useful for something it was invented.
When you are tired and you have to go up by stair think that there were people that didn't have stair and they didn't die, they kept on with their life's. The thing is that we all ready know the invent of the elevator so we want it. In the past no one knew about the elevator they didn't think of elevators.
If you have to go up stair your only choice is to go by stair is what you have. You don't have any other choice. Many people would say that another solution would be to ask someone to bring the things that she or he needs, but we can't always depend on others. We have to achieve every days goal.
When you come back from school most of us are tiered but you don't sleep because you need to study because you have a test tomorrow, and every day or most of the days we achieve it.
I think that the quote has a lot of meanings. But what this quote is wanting us to understand that we have to depend of us. When we were little we depended of our parents, but now we are bigger. We do depend of our parents but in some other ways.
We need to grow up by ourselves.

Hello Miss Ale,
I think that this quotation means that if you take the elevator is much easier but if you take the stairs you will need much effort because you need energy and also means that you need an effort to write or to read or all the things that are related with language.

Hi Miss Ale,
I think that the quotation means that in life to reach success you have to have a great effort, nothing will happen automatically. If you have a dream, go for it, but you have to know that it is not easy and that anything will come free. In a university in Chicago, they say: There's no free lunch that menas that anything is easy in life.
See you,

Hello Miss Ale!
What I think tah t this person tryed to expressis that in life you need to choose and that sometime you need to choose the long and difficult way instead of the short and the easiest one. And that sometimes its better to go up throw the stair instead of doing it in the easiest way by elevator...

From what I understood, you cannot simply achieve success in a minute. It requires time and effort. Each step counts, no matter how little it may seem. It all adds. I believe that what it says is true. If we want to achieve something, we can accomplish our goal, but cutting corners, taking shortcuts or “taking the elevator” will not get us any closer or quicker.

Hi miss Ale
I think this quotation means that if you want to reach success there is no cheating or short cut. Mabye it is easier or funner to have a shortcut or somebody do it for you but what happens to me at the end I feel that Im taking credit for someones hard work.So this quotation should be very present in our daily life.

Hi Miss Ale! I have many options about that comment..
1- I think this question means that we have to take the stairs to do gym and do more sports in the day.
2- Beacause the person is afraid that the elevator stay locked and can never leave so he start telling us..
3-Because the stairs are good for as to use it and to move our body..

I think it is that nobody can do something for you if you really want to succes you have to do it by yourself maybe you can get a little bit of help but nobody can do the work for you.It is ñlike no excuses

I think this is because, if this is a public place, a "Discapasitado" cam't go up. That is a problem. Even in School. Imagine if tomorrow a paralitic boy wants to go to St Andrews School, he couldn't.
