La fotografía es de
Cada vez que pierdo un concurso,
cada vez que no salen las cosas como yo quiero, cada vez que llega una mala
noticia, y pienso retirarme, siempre me refugio en una frase de la biblia que
la memorice de chiquito, y recientemente en un texto que me envió una de mis
mejores amigas, acerca de cómo enfrentar momentos difíciles.
Perseverancia que es diferente de la terquedad
es algo que Dios me ha dado, y en momentos difíciles canciones como I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For de U2,
son como un Himno para seguir caminando, el día que deje de sonar en el siguiente
proyecto, que deje de pensar que se puede mejorar algo, ese día debo estar muerto
pues solo la muerte me puede separar de ese instinto por seguir caminando; comparto
con ustedes este texto, y la versión original y la de un concierto en París de
esta canción.
Buen domingo.
Do you need someone else to tell you your product/idea/execution/brand is great? We say don’t worry what anyone else thinks, trust your own judgment. When others doubt, be confident in your vision. Stop waiting for the perfect time to do what you want to do. Just go for it and do it now.
Don’t’ follow fashion trends. The most fashionable thing you can be is to be you. Travel the world, live in other cities, learn cultures. Learn because it keeps your mind young. You don’t need a university degree to be successful, although it may be helpful, but don’t do it because your parents – or you? – have status anxiety. Stop whining about it.
But what you do need is vision, tenacity and confidence in what you do. Do what you love now. Switch topics or schools now. Don’t wait till the last year of your education to realize that this isn’t your path. Listen to your heart, it knows what makes you happy.
If your job sucks, stop blaming others, your boss, your parents, the unverse. Just quit and take responsibility for your own choices. It’s not about the sucky job. It is about you being in the wrong place. There’s never a better time than now.
Start doing what your mind has been ticking away for you to do for years. Take risks. Be in a relationship that flows effortlessly. Trust your gut feeling. Intuition is strong and powerful.
Stop smoking, invest in your body, get off your ass and exercise. If you’re an entrepreneur , don’t spend all night on your projects. Practice balance and time management and have a life. Your family and kids are wondering why you aren’t home for dinner, again. What a waste of your time.
Have the tenacity and focus to execute an idea no matter how daunting it may seem at first. Have the confidence in what you’re doing even when others doubt. Create opportunities for yourself. It is time for you to step up.
Don’t care if you or anyone else don’t like it or agree with what you feature. If you did that, you’d go insane and you would be fake and boring and bland.
Los dejo con dos videos sobre este tema, el primero para los mas jóvenes, el segundo para mi contemporáneos.
