My new life

This is just a fake story. I wrote it just to train new vocabulary!

Yesterday I agreed to undertake a new role in my job. I think that it will be great for me.

But as far as my new function went, I think that will be easy, because I already did that. If somebody gave me that request, I would know how to execute it.
It's good increase in work. Now I can make more money and accumulate great wealth for my future, for my family.

Sometimes I borrowed money on the bank, and it was terrible. I used to spend a lot of money with useless things. When I need to picked up my wife in her job, I always went to McDonald's, I binge McDonald's sometimes.

But I changed! I started to ground myself in discipline, driving and built confidence in me! Wheter I like or not, change comes!

Sometimes we need to take bold actions to change our life. I'm just getting comfortable with it. No matter how old I get, no matter how much money I get... the changes start with the first step!

And family is important. Fear and doubt will be in our way, they help us cut through the challenges.

As you can probably tell, I went down the same path as somebody you know (maybe). I'm not saying that to brag or flex about my new role in company. I'm just pouring my soul into it.

I would like to draw attention to this part: it's not easy, but it's necessary! I can't give up! That's a huge challenge, but I'll win!

My new life

This is just a fake story.

I wrote it just to train myself on [some] new vocabulary!

or "practice some new vocabulary"

Yesterday I agreed to undertake a new role inat my job.

I think that it will be great for me.

But as far as my new function wenttask goes, I think thait will be easy, because I've already did thatone it before .

"function" is used more for technical stuff, like in "bodily function," or for the role of concepts (ie. "Religion functions in society as a way to build communities"), and the capabilities of items/products ("Older car stereos have a function to play cassette tapes")

If somebody gaverequested (it of me |that requestI do it), I would know how to execute it.

Since you never talked about a specific request previously, it sounds weird to say "that request". Honestly, it's kinda hard to word since you don't expand on what exactly the new role is.

It's a good increase in work.

Now I can make more money and accumulate great wealth for my future, for my family.

Sometimes I used to borrowed money onfrom the bank, and it was terrible.

"Sometimes" implies something happens habitually, so putting something like "used to" to make it pretérito imperfeito sounds a bit better.
Alternatively, you could say "I borrowed money from the bank a few times" if it wasn't habitual

I used to spend a lot of money withon useless things.

When I needed to picked up my wife infrom her job, I always went to McDonald's, I binged McDonald's sometimes.

There's a comma splice, but it's okay in casual writing

But I've changed!

Using present perfect tense clarifies that the change is relevant to the present (you're still in the state that results from the change)
If you use simple paste tense, it is open-ended and can mean that this is all entirely in the past and you reverted back to binging McDonald's, etc

I started to ground myself in discipline, driving and built confidence in mebuilding confidence in and driving myself!

This word order is better to make it clear that "myself" is the object of "driving" (this definition of "drive" requires an object)

Whether I like or not, change comes!

Sometimes we need to take bold actions to change our lifeves.

I'm just getting comfortable with it.

No matter how old I get, no matter how much money I get... the changes start with the first step!

And family is important.

Fear and doubt will be in our way,; they help us cut through the challenges.

This wording is contradictory... Fear and doubt are obstacles but also helpful?? Perhaps you meant something like "We will encounter fear and doubt on our way." "In the/our way" means that something is blocking your path, metaphorically or literally

As you can probably tell, I went down the same path as somebody you know (maybe).

Grammatically correct, but a strange thing to say unless you personally know the reader and are talking about someone specific they know

I'm not saying that to brag or flex about my new role in the company.

I'm just pouring my soul into it.

But as far as my new function wentjob is going, I think that will be easy, because I have already did thatone the same job before.

This is if you previously had the same job, then moved to your previous job. If your old job was the same as the new job: "But as far as my new job is going, I think that will be easy, because I was already doing those tasks."
