That's it! This sentence sounds just great!! Thanks!

I don't totally like that sentence. (It's not the time you spent there but what you did with that made you improve yourself.)
Yes, I agree. But I put it that way and no one seemed to realise it, so I thought it would be OK. How would you rewrite it?

And one more question... I'm not quite sure I understand this:

It's not the time you spent there but what you did with that made you improve yourself.

There's something missing, isn't there??


Thank you very much!!
