Deeper Connections   With the rush of the daily routine sometimes we skip from the essence of life, human connections, and the meaningful experience we can build with it. Wherever we are there are stories to listen, share and learn from them, people coping with different situations some sad, challenging, or amazing, but everyone is facing something that  we can even imagine. Therefore, if all of us walk together in the same life what if we look for a heart-to-heart conversation to start building Deeper Connections beyond the transactional talks to really take the time to get to know each other and make it worth. So, as entering in a new year I would like to invite you to add this habit to our lives, to live each day as a new opportunity to be more vulnerable and give us the chance to create Deeper Connections and enjoy the beauty of the life together.

Intentional Living   Throughout our lives we achieve many of the goals we set for ourselves and we begin to enjoy individual success that brings many personal and professional satisfactions, however, there comes a point along the way, which has nothing to do with how old are you, but rather with the context of each one of us, where you realize that it is time to refocus your purpose to allow a greater impact, to Intentional Living , and that is how success becomes collective. Part of this new approach is also because we understand the importance of giving back to life all that we have received, and we transform receiving into giving, we start thinking about how to Intentional Living , is adding value to those around us.

It is easy feel positive when everything´s going right, but what about those days, weeks or moments that are more challenging than others? Just as life, being happy in our jobs do not depend only on the good experiences, so how we can navigate on those challenging waves and in the meantime continue enjoying our day?

Enduring Habits   A good practice to achieve our New Year´s resolutions is to have a follow up methodology to become them in Enduring Habits , and not just another list we will repeat next year. There are several theories and techniques about the implementation of habits, whose focus is usually on the person, however, if we focus instead on the system we use, the results could be different. James Clear, in his book "Atomic Habits", describes a very useful technique for this purpose, which consists of making our habits Obvious, Attractive, Easy and Satisfying, working on a continuous improvement little by little. The phrase "the sum of small changes brings remarkable results" is totally true, and precisely the Enduring Habits are the consequence of a small constant improvements, which are transformed into a positive habit that in the long term becomes part of our lifestyle.

So, let´s Influence Positive people around us, helping and and expressing gratitude.       Influencia Positiva   Como seres humanos siempre estamos tratando de pensar y actuar en consecuencia con el legado que queremos dejar en este mundo, porque parte del sentido de la...
