What is your goal in life?
|
The answer is found in the simple, yet profound, statement by a Vietnamese monk, Thich Naht Hahn: “The path is the goal.” ​ In other words, finding your path in life is your goal in life.

Looking for that path fuels your inner energy. If you make that path enjoyable, meeting new people, visiting new places, learning new skills, you can feel truly fulfilled all along the way. ​ Now, what are you going to do to achieve your goal in life today?

This situation is not unusual. In my 20 years managing projects and people, I’ve seen this almost every day....
Codie Sanchez once explained that “If you want to know where future fortunes will be made, don’t look at markets; look at rooms” And she continued: “Wealth follows proximity. The closer you are to capital, information, and ambition, the higher your expected return. If compounding is the eighth wonder of the world, proximity is the ninth.” This is probably the best piece of advice I have received in the last 12 months. Economists call it agglomeration, the phenomenon where productivity and...
A couple of weeks ago, someone that I know commented this: “Vicente, I’m sick to death of my job… every Monday I feel like jumping out the window. And what it’s worse… now they want to reduce staff and I don’t know what to do” She wasn’t exaggerating. And from what I understood, it wasn’t the first time she’d said — or thought — something like that. And surely not the last. Built-up exhaustion. Unpaid overtime. A boss who confuses “leading” with being a pain in the ass. And a salary that...
