Envy

Hi dude,
after some day of hard work, I come back to you to talk about one of the most common defects in my country, Spain.

It is said that this capital sin is quite perceivable specially throughout all administration officers. I strongly belive that this happens to those who are not happy with the life they are living.

So dude, envy noone! It is not worth! It is pathetic! Be so proud of yourself and pay no attention to what others do.

Decisions

Hi bro,
As you know, during lifetime there are plenty of paths for everyone. Each one must create his path and, unfortunately, nobody will tell you how.
Now, how the hell may we know what is the correct choice? Would it not be easier a life without having to choose? Of course, bro, but this is the essence of freedom.

Once you have made a decision, you are opening a wide range of opportunities in front of you. The point is that just one choice seems to be the best!
Take it easy, bro! Many paths can drive you to your goal. Don't allow yourself not to decide. That would be a big mistake!

After some time you will be able to look backwards, and then, you will realize that you did right! That choice led you to where you are now, and believe, you will never will be able to compare whether that decision was great or not!

So, just let it go! Enjoy from now on, with no fear! Be brave! Enjoy your life!

Your mind growing

Sometimes, when you try to get up early in the morning, as early as you can, to go to the job, lots of thinkings invade your mind. Usually, at 7AM, most of them are bad thoughts, and just remind you how long is the day you have in front of you, and how many things you have to do in your job, in your school, or wherever you are going today. But your wristwatch clockwise start turning around, the sun rises, you go out home and realise that every little thing you see or you do can make you feel happy, just depending on how you interpret it. Just a song can make you feel better, a bird or a tree can make you realise how wonderful is your environment. Everything depends on your point of view everytime, you have to be the owner of your mood, the owner of your feelings and the driver of your life. This is the way your mind will grow in the correct way. Feel free to be yourself, show everyone who you are and why you are like that. And respect, learn, develop and share. Like this you’ll become a well-furnished respected mind, and tomorrow you will get up easier than today.

Deadlines

Bro, don't think the world is moved by money. Forget it!
This magic word is the root cause of anything happening to us. Deadlines are leading every action we take and bringing us where we are! Those living with them will reach the top! Guaranteed!

Unless you want to go nowhere, your life should be plenty of deadlines. Have a look into your agenda and check for how many deadlines you have written down. The number of deadlines will determine the maximum salary you will be paid. Even more, depending of the projects you are working on, you will be classified as a profitable man or not. So, what? Deadlines lead to money, and deadlines will lead you to one high social class or to one lower. So work with them. Use them.

Deadlines are also commonly used to force ourselves to reach a target. Have you ever had the need to know the date for something to be done? I am not just talking for professional matter! Consider also personal projects! Is some project taking you more time than planned? Is this concerning you too much? Is this making you don't enjoy other things? Fix a date in your agenda and just do accordingly. When a deadline is fixed, you cannot postpone it! Try it! Enjoy it!

Bro, time is over! My deadline just came! Target completed, right?

Leaving

Bro, sometimes we think that life cannot continue without oneself. It is not true.

Just to put an example, today one friend at work is being fired. This global crisis is affecting everyone of us with no doubt. Today someone else is fired, but tomorrow that one can be you. Who knows! The sad side of this is not that this person has finished a working contract, but rather that life is gonna be the same for the rest of us at the department.

I was told a long time ago that "no matter whether people like you or not; the important is that people talk about you." I would add something to it. "Leave a trace and you will be alive in the mind of those you met". Don't be afraid of showing how you are! Behave as you are! Don't try to avoid tough situations, face them! Don't leave one place (one job) allowing people around you to forget you.

Become indespensable for anyone! Sell yourself! Be awesome wherever you are!
You must stay in all minds forever and ever.

Networking

Dude,There are many ways to face your profesional career, some of them more ambitious than others, with more or less impact.And there are people who never raise their way. No matter the goal, they don’t want to prosper. They don’t look forward, and just spend their time thinking: “It’s enough, I’m ok right now, why to prosper?”

In a successful career, is very important not to lose the way, and have well-defined targets, tactical and strategic, allowing us to face all impediments to achieve our goal. And to follow in the correct and ambitious path, we can’t forget one of the most important key points in this process, which is called "networking".

Everybody knows how important is to have a family, friends, co-workers, etc. We are all in contact thanks to ITs, social networks and Web2.0, but we can’t forget the network of professional contacts that can help us achieve our goals and follow that path we wanted. And this is the why I want to remind some words that some day I listened from an andorran CEO, very important in that country, that made me thought about that. That man believed that there are 3 keys to succeed in your career, “Do the networking”, “Keep it warm” and “Ask for contacts”.He attributed his success to the constant following of these 3 concepts, and to the effort he put to build a solid network, keep it warm, and make it grow and grow daily.

In my opinion, that man had very clear objectives, and thanks to the networking task he had done, he achieved most of his goals and he’s still working to achieve new ones. He has decided to have a successful and ambitious career, with impact on his life.
That’s why we have to think about our goals and priorities, and determine the professional status we want in the coming years. If you finally decide to grow and not stagnate, we must follow the philosophy of that manager and use the new technologies to build a network as wide as possible and, above all, keep it alive and awake.

Waiting & Wasting

Después del éxito con los dos primeros "posts", éste lo voy a redactar en el idioma del futuro (con el permiso de los chinos, claro).

And the reason is: why not sharing our experiences with all people around the world? We should think big, we should break all borders existing among us. Web 3.0 is becoming a reality, and therefore my purpose is to anticipate to this huge transformation and start communicating with everyone. Plus, it would be a waste for them not to enjoy this growing and awesome new blog.

Let's focus on the topic that occupies me now.

The point is: are you one of those who live waiting for something to happen? Are you always concerned in important events which don't let you do what is really important in this life?
Sometimes I am. And because from my engineering side I know that waiting is wasting, we should not allow that to occur. Are we allowing external factors to decide by ourselves? Are we wasting our lifetime in minor, non-relevant things because it is said that by achieving this or that we will meet the goal?
My friend, during lifetime there are plenty of things to do, but the most important is to love. Don't forget this! Apply it wherever you are! Because that's the goal! That's the one thing that we are gonna keep after life.
Once said this, don't waste now your life trying to love too much. Money is also really crutial in these tough times. So, don't wait. There is always something you can take profit from. Have you ever thought in 'investing'? I am not talking about "stocks", I am meaning in providing your life with the tools that in the future will let you fully enjoy. Maybe today is not the time to enjoy. Don't desperate! Use your time, use your mood and use all your energy in the direction you prefer. But please don't wait! Don't waste your life doing nothing! Be patient, but don't fill your time as a spectator.

Time is limited, bro. Everybody knows it! So use it. Use it because at the end, you will be the one responsible for what you did. And what's worst, you will be the one responsible for what you did not.

Objetivos y constancia

A unos meses de terminar los estudios, y uno ya se aventura a nuevas experiencias, a nuevas responsabilidades, a nuevos retos.

Y es que una vida sin riesgo no vale la pena vivirla. Uno cree que tendrá tiempo suficiente para poder realizar todos sus sueños, pero cuando pasa de los 25, y ve que la vida avanza sin detenerse ni un momento, se da cuenta entonces que, o bien empieza a poner la primera piedra en cada uno de los proyectos personales y profesionales por los que está llamado a vivir, o bien va a vivir el resto de sus días como un espectador de su propia vida. Qué cosa más triste, verdad? Y que cerca estamos de ello cuando queremos abandonar, o cuando no empezamos nada nuevo.

Este blog es para aquellos que creen firmemente que la vida se la hace uno mismo, "pic i pala", y que nadie ni nada va a interceder por nosotros para ahorrarnos un trabajo duro con una recompensa infinita.

Os animo a que nos sigáis, a que creáis en Pic&Pala, y a que luchéis por convertiros en lo que siempre habíais soñado ser.
