Less blah blah, and more doing!
Hello dear readers, One more week here, sharing my life perspectives to inspire you to be critical and philosophize a little about every aspect of this game we call life.
I’m different from the average, and I like feeling different.
Last week I used a phrase that said:
‘If you think you know me? Think again’
I’m too unpredictable, the most someone can get to know me will be as far as I allow them to, however, if I let them know me it’s because I’m interested in them doing so, if I stop them from the opportunity to continue knowing me it’s because their actions caused me to lose interest.
I’m a person who directs their life under a principle loyalty, but not to an external person, loyalty to myself.
In this chess game that is life, the only person I will never fail is myself, that’s why every move counts… as far as I can remember I have never made a decision at random 😉
Loyal to my decisions, faithful to what I believe, and I believe in myself! 🌟
People think my lifestyle is luck, nothing that I’ve experienced until today, I haven’t thought about coldly, because I believe in attraction, I don’t chase ideals, I project my ideas in my thoughts and put them into action.
This week I saw a very interesting video that said that a man can be confident in himself and is therefore admired (Well, I also admire men who know what they want), but if an equally confident girl, society judges her as arrogant.
Personally, I believe that the opinion of others is not part of my reality, and I also firmly believe that it is wonderful to know that human beings can be critical and if I am their controversial point, well, let’s generate more content 😜
This week was influenced by situations that reaffirm my belief that life is not perfect.
I’ll tell you that a few months ago I had a project to open a restaurant in a plus area of the country where I currently live, I mentioned this idea to some clients and some friends. Well, this past week a friend uploaded a pic on social media of the type of restaurant I wanted to open in the area I liked, I must admit that there were mixed emotions, however emotions can invalidate your ability..
So I simply said, whether or not any of those who knew, commented on my business opportunity with another and they took advantage of it, since they executed exactly my idea, well, enjoy the returns, I’m still a source of ideas.
You must learn not to serve as food if you swim among sharks! Ok, I accept I served as bait for having indigenous malice. But what can I ask of the sea, if I’m a beginner shark, therefore I prepare to learn from situations like this, otherwise I won’t learn to survive in the ocean.
At a business table, there are two factors that close a deal:
- Reducing the risk of the business you propose
- Entertainment
I have learned this, but as in poker, you don’t win in all rounds, but when you like to win you learn to count cards and leave nothing to chance👻
At another time I’ll tell you about business strategies, I just wanted to use this to develop the rest..
Let’s continue, I’ve learned this in the multiple lessons that life has given me since I can remember, where I’ve faced being a woman in environments surrounded by men.
For example, when I meet with my family (they’re all men, except my mom), in this environment it’s like being among the wolf pack, of all the male environments I’ve interacted with this has been the most difficult I’ve faced.
My brothers forgive nothing, all always competing to be the best in the house, and my dad thinks he’s the owner of absolute truth..
So we all have a very strong character, and the only option is to learn to read your opponent, and you have no idea how much this continuous competition amuses me where dad is the judge. I think this will give you a bit more context about me haha
We are all professionals in what we do and we are all a bit egocentric..
I think I’m the only one who isn’t egocentric 😁 but being honest with you, accepting what one is, is not a matter of humility or ego, it’s a matter of knowing that you are the meaning of perfection materialized hahaha
Oh how funny! I’m just kidding… or well, maybe not 😂😎
My brothers and dad know better than anyone who I am, they have helped me train, so these challenges don’t faze me, I’m very aware of my reality, and the challenges I face being a woman, many times my family has expressed that fear that I don’t have, related to male protection, but hey dude, for me relationships are like a luxury, like when I go to a store and buy heels, if I buy them I use them, but well I don’t mind being gifted a pair of heels now and then haha..
I like analogies, you know, however I must highlight that, being a woman, in the context of starting businesses in Latin America and in many other parts of the world, the sexist challenge faced by a woman is so big, but I believe that when you are clear about what you want the universe has no other option but to give it to you, even if it’s not under the paths you think you should follow.
It’s curious but when I make a decision I don’t care about the consequences, I make it after having analyzed all the probabilities, but well, when I want to distract myself I make use of the ‘sporadic’.
I have this philosophy, that anything we want we can achieve, because we are time itself, we create thoughts and project them into reality.
The most beautiful thing I read this week was this phrase:
“We are all stardust”
I’ve always liked walking on the tightrope, between reality and the unknown, as if there were two skies, one cosmic, full of stars within absolute darkness, on the other side is the immovable and immutable blue sky we know where everything is predetermined like a video game, if I had to choose between one of them, I would choose the unknown, I don’t like to repeat, not even heels I repeat several times haha
The feeling that there is more than what we see or understand is part of what drives science, philosophy and literature. It is an inherent search of the human being to understand the universe and our place in it. My favorite part is the combination between them, how philosophy is fed by history and the attempt to prove everything we believe.
Stop here dear reader! Stop looking out for a moment and look inside yourself, this reality offers us many options but within those options, let’s allow ourselves to step away from everything a little and focus on who we are, if we like what we have created, let’s not forget that at the end of the day only we remain against ourselves.
This week a friend put in his status:
“Life is very difficult”
I replied, ‘when you focus on yourself, you change the key with which you opened the door to look at life’.
Learn to focus on yourself, and walk oriented to your inner self applying these tips, according to your life structure, and you will see that this will change that perspective:
- Avoid alcohol: Oh, the truth hurts! But yes, alcohol is not the best friend of health or youth. Although, I must admit, in small doses, it can be the social lubricant that makes family gatherings tolerable.
- Sleep a LOT: Sleeping is like the update mode for humans. Without it, you become a beta version of yourself, full of bugs and errors. Although, who hasn’t dreamed of an “airplane mode” for real life? Stay in your Alphaversion.
- Eat WELL: The idea of eating fewer times but better is like the food equivalent of “less is more”. Although, I must say, the idea of not having a snack sounds like torture for many, it’s like asking a child not to ask “are we there yet?” on a long trip! Establish a diet that fits your goals.
- EXERCISE: Exercise is like washing the car; it makes you feel good and look better, but who has time for that? Although, if you like it, it’s like having a hobby that is also a superpower, it makes you look good and keeps you healthy.
- LIMIT stress: Seeking real dopamine is like looking for true love in a world of dating apps. It’s a challenge, but when you find it… oh, what a wonder! as if this were possible haha.. Controlling emotions is like being the best chess player, always thinking several moves ahead. With strategies you will hardly lose your way and anxiety will not dominate you, meditating on this is never too much 😎
There is nothing sexier than someone who manages their own destiny… free souls making their own way.
Recently I started reading a book called ‘Swim with the sharks without being eaten alive’ by Harvey Mckay. This week I also heard in his podcast that he had a coach for everything, in his podcast he said ‘If life distributes so many talents, and if I have time and action on the calendar, why not have the best to learn a little bit of everything?’
He also said “I lived much of my youth not wanting to go to sleep, I was afraid of missing something new during my exploration in this life, as if one life was not enough”, it’s incredible how we always end up reading or listening to something that adds to the experiences we are facing, as if life was trying to guide us on the right path.
When I write I have my own bank of ideas, which generates magnificent returns within my mind, my brain working at a thousand per hour 👽
This is why we must work on our best version, not to generate as many ideas as I do haha… but to avoid falling into conformism.. Damn! This is the same as if Chucky showed up in your room at 3am telling you:
“I got a new game. It’s called ‘Hide the Soul’, and guess what? You’re it.”
Conformity is like having your soul stolen.
Before closing my round of shared thoughts for this week, I want to tell you something.
To work on our best version, it’s important to understand that once we’ve created our new key, it won’t open past doors unless you modify it to go back or or bend it until you break.
When you know yourself, you know what you want from life and you don’t look back to stop.
You are the key!
People close doors/chapters cuz in them there were toxic people, vices, attitudes they no longer want to be part of.
You are f* expensive!
Expertise comes at a premium- not a discount. Never undersell yourself. You think that you’re too expensive? Good,that’s a f* compliment. Better work, delivered faster, comes from experience- and you know what’s cheap? Lazy ppl..
Brain is your most valuable asset! You change your attitude/thought you change your life ✨
So that change the terms-of business.
Bye now! 💋
