Robert Kiyosaki once said that every day is filled with defining moments. And that’s absolutely true. From the moment we wake up, we define ourselves when we decide to get up and exercise or sleep an extra half hour. We define ourselves when we call in sick even though we could go to work.

Let’s say you want to get in shape. You can buy a gym membership. Fine. You pay the fee. You get the little towel. You walk in pretending you know exactly what you’re doing. Then you start lifting weights like a chicken “sin cabeza”… no head. A machine here. Some dumbbells there. A bit of treadmill because you saw someone else doing it. And then you hope willpower, motivation, and the fitness gods do the rest. Good luck with that. Now, if you’re serious… Really serious… You hire a personal...
The dream accomplishment is not a promotion. Sorry. I know LinkedIn wants you crying in front of a cake with the company logo… so that you produce lots of likes. “After 17 years, I am humbled to announce…” Lovely. Very touching. Very corporate. Very LinkedIn… But no. The real dream is a WhatsApp message. “Can you jump on a call? We have a problem.” That’s it. No fireworks. No orchestra. No posts in social media with 46 hashtags.
