Every obstacle is a lesson.
Learn from the lesson of each fall and take it as an experience.
The fear is here, but there is more behind that fear. Do not look where you are falling but where you stumbled. Analyze the situation and learn the lesson. I have had many obstacles throughout my career, but I have gotten there, thanks to all of them and I am grateful for those obstacles.
When you start a job or a new project, there is a stage of transition and learning. There will be voices that will say that it is very hard, and you have to resign, but if you let them empower you, your work will be harmed. Instead, if you overcome these obstacles, each time you will gain more experience, more wisdom, and more experience. That is because you will know the obstacles and how to overcome them.
Accept as you are with your virtues and your defects.
Be yourself and do not try to please others by pretending to be what you are not.
Stop doing everything possible to gain the appreciation of others, your bosses, your colleagues, your clients.
It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.
For a long time, I’ve tried to be the cool guy, to get along with everyone, but that’s impossible. Once you accept that you can’t be liked by everyone else and find your deep values and live with them, assume who you are, everything is easier.
At work, you have some virtues and defects. You can’t know everything. If you know how to make the most of your potential and your virtues, you will be unstoppable. If you know where your defects have to be corrected or even delegate those tasks to another colleague, then you can focus solely on what brings out your good potential. The energy and dynamics of the team will be used to the maximum.
The fear will always be there.
Courage is not the absence of fear. We have all felt fear, it is a reflection of us. It comes with our belief and we have to face it and take the leap.
Fear makes you become the living dead, but on the other side are your dreams, where your heart will start beating again, where you will regain the will to live.
If you feel fear, you are on the right track.
There will always be the old guard to tell you that you are going to fail, that you shouldn’t do that, we’ve always done it that way, that task shouldn’t be done that way or even it’s not up to you to do these things. The way to get scared can come in many forms. If you feel that fear, it is that you are doing something exciting that makes your adrenaline rise.
After dark the sun always rises.
Bad things that happen put us in the way of better things.
A closed door does not mean the end of destiny, there is always another way, and you can move on. It’s like when you drive with a GPS, if you take the wrong route, the GPS suggests another route. You will always come your way in the end, sooner or later.
There is no pain that does not come with a good experience. In life you can’t be happy without a bit of darkness.
Happiness is not achieved through the absence of problems. After darkness comes, light. There is the night and then always comes the light of day. The sun (and the day) always appears after night (darkness).
In all projects, bugs arise, contingencies and defects. The ability to react to correct those bugs is important. Every defect has its solution, failures will always arise for one thing or another, but there will also always be a solution to it sooner or later. You just have to stay calm. As I mentioned, after the night comes the sun and the day. Even if it is a gray and cloudy day and then night comes, the next day or the next, the sun comes out anyway, just like the solutions.
Look life ahead and enjoy the ride
It’s like when you drive, you have to look at life through the windshield, not through the rearview mirror, the past. The windshield is wide, we realize the road ahead and what remains to be done.
Instead, the rearview mirror is used to see just behind us, the road we have passed and left behind. That’s why don’t stay stuck in the past and continue on your way, just move forward.
Whether it’s good or bad, what matters most is what’s going to happen. What happened in the past cannot be compared to what is in the future because that is where you are going.
But remember to enjoy the trip and the present moment to contemplate the landscape. Where you go is more important than where you were.
Technology advances, methods and ways of working too. Today companies work full remote things that we could not imagine before. As I mentioned above, there will be people who will tell you that we have always done it this way, but we have to look forward. Look towards new technologies and new ways of doing it. Progress always brings better sustainability and more efficiency and that is always the case. It’s human nature, we progress for better.
Don’t hold a grudge
Most of the time people want to see those who have hurt them in a worse position, but revenge is not the solution because it unleashes a feeling of hatred that rarely knows when to stop and becomes a vicious circle. It poisons the soul and kills positive feelings. Choose to forgive and the best way to avenge the enemy is not to be like him and give him love and affection.
In many jobs you will have clashes with colleagues. Although you cannot imagine it, I have also had many confrontations, although I am a quiet and shy person. But I didn’t take it to heart, it’s part of the job and exchanging ideas, ways to think. There are people who like apples and others like oranges. You can’t force them to eat something they don’t like. The same applies at work, not because they don’t want to follow your ideas or want to knock your ideas down, you have to go confront people who disagree with you.
Learn to forgive.
Change the pain for inner peace and liberation It is necessary to improve and leave behind grudges and bitterness. It is not something you do for others but for yourself, to have a pure heart.
How many wounds have left you hurt and with a bad taste in your mouth? I speak of forgiveness, when you forgive, you are more open to good vibrations, to that feeling of positivity.
We all win, and we all lose. If something goes wrong, forgive yourself and move on. That forgiveness in the team will be noticed as a gesture of trust and will bring back that good group dynamic.
This is your moment.
