Giving Small Details. A painting student was finishing his painting work, when he was approached by his painting teacher and for a while after observing he asked the student for the palette and brushes, with great dexterity he gave a few strokes here and there. When the teacher returned the brushes to the student, the painting had changed remarkably. The student was astonished, before his very eyes the work had gone from mediocre, so to speak, to something sublime. Almost…
The Key That Opens the Door to Success. There is a story I want to tell you today about a boy who one day was fishing and an old man was fishing near him. This boy was having quite a bit of success fishing, he was pulling fish in and out of the water, but what was remarkable was not how many fish he caught but what he did once he caught them. The boy would take each fish in his hand and measure it. If the fish was longer than his hand he would return the fish to the water,…
Succeed or Be Defeated, it's up to you. Have you ever felt disappointed in your life?... (because I have)... in fact it would be rare, not to say strange, for us to go a week without experiencing some kind of discouragement. In the strongest cases, we have sometimes been discouraged for days. Not wanting to get out of bed. This is not our case, but there are people who seem to be under "black clouds" every day, always in a bad mood, pessimistic about life. For these people,…

Passing the friendship ball. I invite you to imagine for a moment that the whole world has 24 hours of existence left, it is just an exercise of imagination, please do not run away, just imagine that we were told: the world is ending gentlemen!... what would happen?.. what would you do? I imagine that the phone lines, chat rooms, emails, all the social networks would be saturated with people communicating with someone to say goodbye words like these: "I'm sorry I said what I…
A Virtual Hug. A few days ago the day of the hug was celebrated. And how much a hug was really needed. These days of January have been lethargic. I have a feeling that time has come to a standstill. All these first days of the year feel as if they were passing without grace or direction. I feel like stagnation in all aspects of my daily routine. Do you know why I needed a hug...? I was in low spirits, even to write. I was, past tense. In the evenings, I was texting my…
Happiness is there, just around the corner. I arrived at the requested address and honked the horn of my cab, after waiting a few minutes I honked it again and after waiting without getting any answers I thought about leaving, but since it was the last race of the day I decided to park my vehicle and go to the door to ring the bell. - Wait just a minute," answered an old man's voice over there. I could hear something crawling on the floor. After a few minutes the door…
