What happens while you wait for life to happen


waiting

Being a small coffee shop owner and waiting for your customers to walk in.

Being a newsstand employee, waiting for somebody to buy a paper or a magazine from you.

Being an office employee, waiting for your boss to give you something to work on for the day.

Waiting. Just waiting.

Meanwhile, life passes you by. Amazing opportunities fly by.

All that’s left for you is wait. For the next customer, for the next task. Until you retire.

You wonder then: What happened with my life? Was it worth spending it waiting? For what? Money? Security? Certainty?

And you regret. You regret all that lost time.

 

But there’s something you can do to prevent that. There’s something you can do NOW.

Do something today that you’ve never done before, or that scares you.

It’s so simple…..

Forget waiting, and just LIVE!

The “power” of compromise


compromiseEarlier this year I had the most amazing experience while going to get my car repaired.

The car shop owner, a person who I know for about eight years, called me in his office to give me the estimate. He is a short fellow, not bad looking, age 39, with a bald spot, very energetic and a little overdressed for the business he is running.

Although I had known him for all this time, Continue reading →

Being an actor in your own movie


Actor in your own movie

Actor in your own movie

Each one of us, at one moment in our life, has been a subordinate. Most of us still are, to this day. None of us likes it.

We all dream of being free to make decisions that are beneficial to us, instead of following instructions that, in most cases, are detrimental to our well-being.

We dream and dream, but fail to act.

Opportunities fly by each day, but we are so busy that most of the time we don’t even notice them.

And, when we do, we  Continue reading →

Distractions


Life is like a game of golf:

When someone distracts you when you’re about to take a swing, you might hit the ball the wrong way and send it to the trees instead of the green.

All golf players know that it takes time and energy to get the ball out of there.

Your life is basically the same: any distraction that gets your attention takes you away fromyour path, from what you want.

Actually, most people find it very challenging to concentrate on what they want without being distracted. It’s just a matter of time until they get off track, but, with a little work and dedication, it can be done, you can keep focused.

Imagine one day waking up in a good mood, Continue reading →

WATER: The magic of existing


water

The water is the best example of how you should behave and live your life.

The water moulds itself around anything, instead of resisting.

The water moves freely around any obstacles, without losing any of its momentum.

It doesn’t waste any time.

It doesn’t stop in front of those obstacles, asking itself: “What should I do now?”, or saying “I can’t get around this!”

You are composed of the same atoms that constitute water, stars and everything else in this universe.

Your body is mainly made of water. Water flows through your veins.

You are water.

Behave like it.

Live.

Does education matter in the pursuit of happiness?


education

Most of the people I know only went to school for three reasons.

First: because everybody does it and they don’t want to be at a disadvantage, second: it seems to be the normal thing to do, and third: because their Continue reading →
