The neglect in which I have had my blog, the tweets and even the kilometers on the streets have a simple explanation: I’ve been very busy! However, before a complaint with a tug of the ear today, I’m typing again in this space that I love and that I left abandoned for a few days, also because I did not escape a cold with sneezing, chills and body pain.
The bad news for our competitors, of course, is that a good part of the intense occupation of these days, has to do with extraordinary opportunities that have presented themselves, and that of course, we have not been able to pass up. Of course, advertisers should not assume that I am referring only to them, as competitors can be my fellow “turneras” (town races), my rum 500 rivals (usually in the family), the fevers with whom I play some online chess (and who I don’t know) or any business that today goes in the opposite direction.
A few years ago I learned the idea of personal balance between everything we do, with a particular focus on our physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual dimensions. At the same time, I introduced the personal proposal of seeking a reasonable dose of this balance, for periods of 24 hours. And later, I decided to try it not only personally, but in some way to try to spread and promote conditions for others to do it, in their own way and style, in their own tone and personal way, in order to contribute and not to miss a single possibility.
Thus the process opens up and the spaces that are reached today discharge healthy doses of adrenaline, in a particular domain of endorphins that generate that positive feeling of peace and harmony that is required to be a bridge, connect and facilitate conditions for success, achievements and much satisfaction. It also charges the soul when you applaud the achievements of the people you love the most, embrace your family and build community with love and shared visions. It excites to take on commitments for a lifetime, ignites to see extraordinary organizations and revisit deeply inspiring events. It provokes us to discover ourselves in crisis, limitations and serious challenges, in the midst of many chronic pessimists and timid fatalists, to celebrate by working hard and in tribe, with patience and faith.
In an open blog like this one, of course, I am never specific or as transparent as I can be personally, and for this reason, I leave much unspecified with the intention of simply leaving a rough idea and a conceptual proposal to propose approaches, ideas and ways to make a contribution every day. For many, these may be critical moments in unemployment, in chaos or fear, and yet, it will be our decisions and our confidence that will have to move our mind towards the light and the positive, out of the shadows and the dark, to keep us focused on those possibilities of each day from very early in the morning.
My dear friend, for me it is now two o’clock in the morning, I am exhausted and early in the morning I am going for a few miles to run. I will also go for an intense day to live it with the joy that generates even more opportunities and with God in my heart beating, integrally connected in the gratitude that vibrates in every inch of my soul.
So well, the bad news for my competitors is simply tonalities in the fact that I am happily busy. And just as it could be because I’m training to run 30 seconds less per kilometer (tough…), learning some new move on the board (even more so…), reading to understand better (I read slowly!), knocking on doors to discover new options (and tomorrow is no exception) or simply, learning every day to walk in the right direction to defeat the enemy. (Bad news for this!? Naaaaaaaaaaa.)
Of course, I hope you have perceived a simple tone of spontaneous amusement in today’s keyboard in wakefulness, (maybe at about 70 words per minute. Or is it just 30?) and the reality that deep down and on the surface, I am sure that none of my colleagues and competitors, in just one of the fields in which I compete, can care in the least that I am busy and focused on playing better, because I have long since learned (and they know) that there is something for everyone and obviously, that we win more if we win all of us .
Embrace, I resume the blog, I return to type and we continue straight ahead. Embrace, that tomorrow the sun rises again, there is a day full of possibilities and wonderful tribes to reach them together. Embrace, because most of us are blessed to open our eyes in the morning, and see, get out of bed, and walk, open the pipe and drink drinking water in quantity. Embrace! That there is no crisis if there is will, and tomorrow comes a day to go for it with all the will. Hug!
