Reflexion

At noon on a hot day in Italy, I met my new neighbor from Verona. After a long conversation, I asked her how I could afford five months of vacation. If she had better conditions than me, I wouldn't be able to.


Then, in a reflective moment, I evaluated the conditions in my opinion, how she could achieve what I had achieved or what I had done differently.


The first step was that I never thought I should get this because of my conditions. Instead, I worked and focused on what I wanted. And I know everything necessary to achieve it.


Another point was that I didn't work, but rather earned money throughout my life. These are two different ways of thinking, and they greatly change the concept of how we perceive and spend it.


My main focus was always on how I can achieve this instead of thinking that it's impossible.


Now I started to think about how I made it, and I highlighted a few points:


_Money is earned by helping other people and providing value.


_ Money is an energy that comes closer when you walk with authenticity and moves away when you should be.


_ To waste opportunities


_ To have direction.


_ To learn to listen with humility and apply. To be active, not reactive.


How I approach the projects.

Where do I want to go?

Is there another option?

Is it necessary? Why?

How much time should I spend?

Can it be done another way?

Am I willing?

THE 7 SINS IN THE CREATION OF GOALS

 There are certain mistakes we must avoid when creating our goals in life: Sin 1. Not writing down your goals. “Out of sight, out of mind.” It's easy to forget what we want to do if we don't constantly keep it in mind. The best way to reinforce a new concept we want to learn and maintain a long-term commitment is to write it down and keep it somewhere we can always see it. This way, we can remember the reasons why we're doing what we're doing. Sin 2. Having unclear motives. It's crucial that your goals be personal and profound; otherwise, we won't have a real reason to work on them. In other words, the reason why we want to achieve a goal will always be more important than the what we want to achieve. Think of that goal of “becoming a millionaire.” This goal is completely meaningless unless we have a strong reason for wanting to have a lot of money. If your reason is simply to be able to buy more things or satisfy your shopping habits, you certainly won't be...

Relationship with Money: A Story with Olga

I like to see everything as relationships. Human relationships, between humans. And in this case, I want to share what my relationship with money was like—and is like today, represented in this story by a figure we'll call Olga. A while back, I had a very toxic relationship with Olga. I didn't take care of her, I abused her trust, and I mistreated her. This mistreatment manifested itself in impulsive spending, senseless decisions, things that got me nowhere. But over time, I began to understand something simple and powerful: if I took care of Olga, she would take care of me. I began to see that Olga had never been lacking. She had always been there for me when I needed to be. And that many of the unmet needs I felt were actually desires in disguise, things I didn't know if I really wanted. That realization completely changed my perspective. I felt loved by Olga. And I began to respect her. I knew there were days when she could give me more or less attention, but also that s...

Not Everything We Did Was Wrong

 In the midst of crises, thoughts often emerge:  "What’s wrong with me?"  or  "Why is this happening to me?"  We might start to believe that everything we've done throughout our lives has been a series of mistakes. This mindset can be fueled by our insecurities, a poor self-concept, or the criticisms of others. Our insecurities often stem from a lack of self-awareness, low self-acceptance, or insufficient work on ourselves and our purpose. Without a strong sense of who we are and who we want to be, we’re more vulnerable to doubt. Rarely do we take others' criticisms seriously enough to understand their origins. These judgments often reveal more about the other person—their pain, expectations, wounds, and perspective—than about us. We cannot always discern whether their judgment is optimistic or pessimistic, or even their true intent behind the words. What’s more, there’s often a significant gap between who we are, who we want to show the world, and what othe...
