All the texts I’ve recently published in The Slow Burn have been born from a desire to share and inspire. I emphasize this because I recognize that it wasn’t always like this. In the past, when I called myself a publicist and entrepreneur, my writing was often driven by a need to build my personal […]
We have all enjoyed or suffered the Oscars awards in Hollywood. A few on the site, and all the rest of us, happily do it on TV. It’s sensational! I enjoy watching the films first, and then the talent, creativity, production, innovation [...]
I often have an amusing discussion with my children, because I think there is no better pizza than anchovy pizza. They find it obnoxious, while I find it wonderful. The anchovy is always salty, juicy and defined, so it stands out [...]

There is hardly a worse monopoly than that of truth. Those who assume it or those who make it their own become walls of obstruction, blockage and stagnation. They usually do not visualize the cause, do not notice the flaw and ignore [...]
For those who believe in the invisible, the impossible is possible. And for an advertiser like me, a message like the one below can be forgiven the logo. I imagine it is possible to reinvent Costa Rica and raise it to the [...]
“From Why to How to What.” I was going through the resources in Prezi, when I came across a presentation with Simon Sinek and his 2009 Ted Talk. In today’s day and age it’s like from prehistoric times, and yet with ideas [...]
