I come to this talk
with a curiosity
how many of you have heard
someone say I would leave everything and I would go
to live on a desert island
it seems that there is full
how many of you know someone
I have done it
I know two people who have
sincerely I do not know to what extent
two people are a sample
representative but what he called my
attention is that in both cases it coincided
the next
a year after being on the island
they had turned
and after six months of being there they were still
having the same problems as before
to go
what a nightmare of mosquitoes
is that I can not stand this humidity
and this sun embraces
that is still complaining about everything
what was happening around him
and is that the island will always be an island and
the city we live in will always be
a city
as we decide to see the island or the city
it depends more on ourselves than on
place itself
everything depends on how we want to see the
world around us
before continuing I will propose a
small game with metaphors of the world
animal
thinking about your current life
and associate it with the image of an animal
answering the question of what animal
I’m being
there is a lion in the room
some sheep
and an ant
a few years ago he kept the typical
conversation with co-workers
on the trending topic of the moment
crisis
we all agreed that having a
work and being able to maintain it will be a
privilege and a creative partner of mine
as she said literally
I look like a bee in a hive
and he explained it like that
I go to my life very organized
not only mine everyone that I
surrounds also has a life like that
I honestly do not listen to anyone in my
environment complain about great misfortunes and
So, what do you want me to tell you?
feel good
when this conversation ended I did not
I could avoid going with the image of the pga
in the head
and it is that I also saw myself as a
bee in a hive
but my interpretation was very different
I started doing what everyone
toward
It was what had to be done
I listened to myself complaining
constantly doing always
the same
and I felt overwhelmed for not having
time nor enough freedom to
do things that really do me
illusion
and that made me feel very bad
said David Hawkins the conflict is in
the mind of the observer
not the observed
and that is that in the same reality my
partner and I were interpreting
our world in a different way and
therefore we felt the same
it is as if unconsciously
each one of us wears glasses
placed through which we see the
world
I was wearing glasses and my partner
I was carrying other
the two of bees but they were models
different from mine with vertical stripes
yours with horizontal stripes
and discover that he was wearing glasses
puttings allowed me to reflect
what are these glasses focusing on
what filters have
I had to copy my partner’s model or
why not design cider again
form them into another animal
the good news was that it was me
could decide how to see the world only
it depended on me
well before telling you what it was that
I finally did I am going to propose
advance a little bit in the game of
animals thought the animal that you have
thought through the animal that you see
thought before
and I propose the following question
or is being served to be that animal
so if it’s okay
and if it is not also good
however for those who want to
launched a question to advance more
and animal you want to be
I do not know if it’s suddenly becoming
in koalas in parrots
well after my period of reflection I
what I decided was to imagine
and redesign my glasses completely
at that moment there was a phrase that
it helped a lot
before convincing the intellect is
essential to touch and predispose the
heart
I forgot the reason and I thought with the
heart what do I want
I want to fly free independent of a
place to another
seeing different places and people each
day
I want to hear information that we
enriches personal and
professional
and I want to feel fulfilled by doing
things that make sense to me
the red flamenco dress with polka dots
black ones that I wear says it all
and I decided on these glasses and take them in
any place
on the island in the city wherever you want
outside
today it is these glasses that serve me
without tomorrow I have to make some change
I have to redesign, I’ll do it
because I already know that it’s me who has the
power to decide how I want to see the
world around me
how do you do this
two key ingredients commitment and
determination making our
promises come true and that our
action speak much higher than our
words
will have to reduce to things like that
things that today seem very
important but they do not help us
get what we want
we will need resources some of them
we already know them
and other resources we have but the
we sometime hidden
our life
will have to be removed
and wow resources will appear
what are those resources that appear as
consequence of the desire to get
what we want
a couple of months ago I stayed with my
old girlfriend having a coffee told me
Marta I left the company and I went to
another does not work a day
complicated complete work
a day a half day
I sincerely want to spend more time with
my children and have more time for me
as well
he gave up his one-day salary
complicated
but he did a touch-up on his glasses
bee with the goal of having a life
more balanced
to the university of harvard carries out
an investigation for 76 years
approximately
the investigation was trying to give
answer to the question what is it that
It makes us really happy in life
the study as you will understand says
a lot of things but basically for
today I rescued the importance of being
ourselves doing things that
have meaning and meaning for
US
we have talked about life that is something
well, very big
but this is applicable to any
day to day situation what animal am I
being in this situation
and what animal do I want to be
today as a coach I’m going for a
company to another making see my
Customers who wear glasses on
for them to decide what changes or
even redesigns have to do to
achieve their goals
and it is that for me
what makes sense is that all the
world day
It has the smallest hour but more
what a little word but fourth
meaning inside
r of reflection what animal I am being
and imagination what animal I want to be
action guide that I will do to
to get it
you have the power to decide as the point
that surrounds us
I encourage that before the end of the day
write or think store day
and as closing bears launched a petition to
help me make everyone laugh
Thank you
