"Since" in Russian
To connect a current state to a past event, start a temporal clause with с тех пор как (since), followed by a past-tense verb. Describe the result in the main clause—such as expanding your outlook (кругозор) or shifting your worldview (мировоззрение).
| Since I left, I have expanded my outlook. | С тех пор как я уехал, я расширил свой кругозор. |
| Since I left this city, my worldview has become different. | С тех пор как я покинул этот город, моё мировоззрение стало другим. |
Milestones and Personal Growth
Major life changes often help us develop new qualities. Use the verb обрести (to gain) to talk about acquiring abstract things, like high self-esteem (самооценка) or discipline (дисциплина).
| Since she found a job, she has gained high self-esteem. | С тех пор как она нашла работу, она обрела высокую самооценку. |
| Since I started doing sports, I have gained discipline. | С тех пор как я начал заниматься спортом, я обрёл дисциплину. |
Shaping Your Success
When discussing personal development, you might describe someone as purposeful or goal-oriented (целеустремлённый). People with this trait often actively shape (формировать) their own paths and inspire (вдохновлять) those around them.
| This purposeful person has always inspired his friends. | Этот целеустремлённый человек всегда вдохновлял своих друзей. |
| A purposeful student shapes his own success himself. | Целеустремлённый студент сам формирует свой успех. |
