Throw away

Throw away  What? Everything that does not fit you or improve yourself. We keep lots of things in our life that must be thrown in the trash from a long time ago. I don't mean material things but that would be a great example to begin with. Imagine a room where you keep all stuff from the past, things that in some way you have got, but most of them doesn't mean anything anymore but you keep keeping them even what's out of order. That room would be mostly useless because all that stuff that doesn't work anymore will only hide from you what still works, what still matters. I know that must look like a weird example but it's not, that's the way life works. If you amass, you won't be able to see what it's really working. This applies to everything, material stuff, activities, routines, ways of thinking, opinions, critics and also people.  Don't you think it will be just amazing to say that everything in our life perfectly works? I bet must of us seek for ...

Jealousy

 Being jealous  I must say that personally I believe is one of the worst feeling you can ever feel. Lets start by saying that the definition involves  feeling or showing an unhappy or angry desire to have what someone else has. It's something quite deeper than that. Why would you like what someone else posses? Easy, because you're not happy enough with what you do have. It's sad since we learn to appreciate what we have until we lose it.  We might believe that that neighbour with that fancy car can be happier than us just because his car is way better that ours, but we're wrong, we usually would claim. "He commit some fraud or anything". Why not instead? "Maybe he worked harder than me, I could start trying a little harder". See? It's all about attitude, about knowing that our car it's okay but it could be better if we try a little harder. A few months ago I read a book in which they say that in order for being successful we must learn to ble...

Money

 Money This article is about the role that money plays in our lives. Let's begin.  A lot money is believed to be bad. We have all these wrong beliefs about money. Money is nothing but a resource and if you allow me, I've heard those who say, money doesn't make you happy but the way I see it, they wrong.  When I say money does make you happy I don't mean the bills and coins itself. I say that it makes you happy because it allows you to do things that might bring happiness to you. It works as a tool to satisfy your basic needs and not only the basic ones but those that are not merely vital but likeable.  It even allows you to make others happy. Let me give you an example you really want to see an old friend but you don't have any money either for a car or for visiting. On the other hand if you have the resources, that's what money is, a resource. You'll be able to do what you desire and at the end of the day that will make you happy. While it's important t...

Time

  Time   Defined as the indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future regarded as a whole. Time is not everything but almost. Time changes, people, situations. One day things may be someway and the next one everything is different. It would be no ones surprise if I tell you that we cannot control time. But no one would deny that we decide what to do with time, at least with ours. It would be impossible to control others time.  It's a big mistake trying to control others time. This leads me to remember that big quote. Time is nothing but a gift. It couldn't be more true. We may not have seen it yet but the more valuable someone can give us, is time. Let me clear myself not any kind of time but quality time. That time that you give or offer to someone not because you have to but because you love someone enough for giving it your time. From my point of view not everyone is worth of your time, and you must learn to differenti...

Not being good at something

 Not being good at something While it is true that lots of things are not made for everyone, it is also true that practise makes perfect. As I said, you may end up discovering that it was simply just not for you.  On the other hand you loose nothing trying, because there are those who born with talent inside of them but also those with the passion and determination to practise until they get it. Those who don't give up.  I'd like to talk about one coach that gave me one of the best pieces of advice in my life. I used to skate on ice and we were practising, I found out I was doing the exercise just wrong, so I asked my coach why he kept telling me I was doing it right when I was surely not. He answered me that even though I wasn't doing it right, he knew if he had told me I was doing it wrong, I would have been sad by consequence I would have stop doing it. Instead if he told me I was doing just fine, I won't lose excitement what wou...

Disappointment

  Disappointment   By definition it's sadness or displeasure caused by the nonfulfillment of one's hopes or expectations. But we could all claim that it's all about something stronger.  I have to clarify that disappointment is not caused by anyone but us, because we expect, not too much, not too little but just what we consider right or perfect for us. And that's not the way it is, neither the way it should be. It happens with everything in our lives. For example. Love, we would like others to love us the way we want to, but that's just impossible because what may look perfect in my head may not look the same way in his or her. It's all about knowing that nothing is perfect but everything is perfectible. We can't expect the one we love to act just the way we'd like to.  What we must learn is that disappointment will be just disable when we don't expect but came to understanding. Understanding that we'd never know exactly the reason of why people ...

It's all mental

 It's all in our head  I wouldn't lie if I told you that our mind is the most powerful part of our body. This is based on my way of thinking so it may be right or wrong but no one would deny the great power contained in our brain. Not only it controls our whole body but getting a little deeper, I've always believed that out thoughts bring things, either good or bad. Let me clear myself. If you're always thinking bad stuff would happen I could't explain why but it appears to happen. On the other hand, if we have good thoughts, we time to time attract good stuff. I've read some cases in which people heal of terminal diseases with stuff that no one can explain like laughing a lot. I've no doubts that we are what we think, what our mind is full is part of also what we have inside of us. It's kind of ironic because it may look like the people who care about nothing is the luckiest one but it doesn't work that way. It's not like not caring but learning...
