En el post anterior sobre la serie Libertad, conversamos sobre la definición de libertad. Compartí una definición que me pareció válida y también compartí mi definición personal. De verdad espero que se hayan tomado un tiempito para pensar lo que significa la libertad para Uds.
Para aquellos que no se tomaron el tiempo para pensar, este post no será de mucha ayuda, así que por favor háganlo!!!
Ok... el tema de hoy toca el hecho de si estamos o no progresando para obtener "eso" que tanto queremos.
En mi caso, cuando definí lo que libertad significaba para mí, siento que abrí los ojos, ya que me dí cuenta hacia donde quería ir yo realmente, y me llevó a evaluar donde me encontraba en ese momento... Definitivamente no se parecía mucho a mi definición. Y fue en ese momento que "tomé la decisión" de ir a buscarla...
Esta es la parte más importante de este post, para movernos hacia la libertad es necesario que "decidamos", y nuestra decisión nos indicará "las acciones a tomar".
My reto para Uds hoy es el siguiente: ¿Qué tanto la quieres?, ¿vale la pena que inviertas algunos años de tu vida haciendo esfuerzos importantes para conseguirla, o te vas a rendir apenas unos meses después de empezar?
Nadie puede llevarte hasta ella, y nadie puede siquiera mostrarte el camino, ya que el camino depende de como tú la definiste.
La aventura estoy seguro que no será nada como lo planeaste, estoy seguro será MUCHO MEJOR!!!
Termino como empecé... ¿Vas en camino hacia ella?
Nos vemos el viernes!
Que tengan un super día!

Freedom Series part 2 - Are you moving towards it?
On the previous freedom series post, we talked about defining freedom. I gave you a definition that I found interesting and also gave you my personal definition of it. I hope you took some time to think about what freedom means to you, and hopefully you got a better idea.
For those who didn't give it some thinking, then this post will not be as helpful, so please do it!!
Ok... today's topic is about whether or not we are actually making progress to obtain "that" we so dearly want.
In my case, when I realized what freedom meant to me, it was an eye-opener, because I was able to see where I wanted to go, and that immediately lead to checking out where I was... It certainly didn't look like freedom to me. And that is when "I made the decision" to go after it...
This is the most important part of today's post, to move towards freedom we need to "decide" and decision leads to "action".
My challenge to you today is this: How much do you really want it?, is it worth investing a few years of your life making important efforts to get it, or you will give up on it a few months from now?
Nobody can take you there, nobody can show the way, because the way really depends on what you defined it to be.
The journey will be nothing like you planned, it will be a LOT BETTER!
I close as I began... Are you moving towards it?
See you on Friday!
Have a nice day!

Sometimes to solve our issues we need to step aside
First of all excuse the late post, its actually Tuesday now, but I know you 'll forgive me.
Today I want to bring up a more practical topic to the blog, and it has to do with solving our problems we face everyday.
It is a technique borrowed from the Trading Course that I am doing from Van K Tharp.
Many times when we are trying to solve an issue, the person that gets most in the way, is ourselves.
We try to over analyze things, the pros the cons, etc. that we become paralyzed, and there is no worse decision during a crisis, than no decision at all.
So the technique helps you deal with those situations, that you don't really know what is happening with you, but you know something is up. A "part" of you is trying to tell you something but you just cannot decipher it.
Well the suggestion in this case is to bring this "part" in front of you, and asking "it" what is that it needs. as you read this, it may sound just to weird, but give it a try! You will be impressed how suddenly you start to understand better what is going on, and begin to be on your way to solving the issue. It also works when you have an internal conflict, a "part" of you agrees, but another "part" does not. Just brings both parts out of you, put them in front, and let them figure out a solution.
Although this may seem absolutely ridiculous, it actually has psychology involved.
Aren't we great at figuring out solutions for problems our friends and families have? Don't you always know what has to be done in other people's situations, in order to solve the problem? Well that's exactly what we do by "Dissociating", we look at it, from the outside, we can see the whole picture.
Give it a try! They only way we grow and prosper, is by making choices about our current situation. The minute we can't chose, the minute we are stopped.
Let's keep moving forward together, I will be sharing more techniques learned in the course. They have really helped me!!
Have a wonderful Holy Week.
Until Friday!
