Come on, give me the chills

Thoughts about changing, life, and whatever comes to mind.

  • the rule for failing

    Once you fail, a voice will start talking in your mind.
    The voice will tell you that you’re incapable, that you can’t keep up, that you can’t succeed.
    The voice will remind you of how and where you failed miserably, it will be your eternal memory of fail.

    It’s a strange voice though, very similar to the one before the fail.
    The one that told you that you wouldn’t make it.

    Still, it’s there.
    You will start feeling guilty for failing, because that’s what we feel when we fail bad.
    It’s our fault after all.

    That is a fact: it is our fault.
    We are the one that failed, the voice is right and there’s no reason we should deny this.
    That guilt, that emotion, will grow in you, and you will feel stuck, blocked.

    What the voice doesn’t tell you is that behind that guilt, there she is.
    The voice is the guilt too.

    There’s only one good rule if you want to fail.
    Listen to that voice, trust that voice.

    Always showing up will strengthen your will, and will allow you to surpass any obstacle that might cross your way.

  • we are a family

    There comes a time when you start thinking more about family than couple, more about us than we.

    It’s a subtle change in vision, but it defines what you will become.
    To me has happened recently and it’s becoming every day more important.

    It’s moving out of a comfort zone to enter an entire new world, totally unknown.

  • too much silence

    I slacked, again.

    Failed to check-in in 3 days for this blog, and it’s bad.
    At first I thought I could just pass it on, but everytime I skip the habit it becomes clear how much I’m losing.

    It’s like skipping an heartbeat, you don’t quite notice, but it’s a signal that your body is has issues.
    And if you don’t fix it, you might die.

    Keeping good habit is almost the same thing.
    In the routine you forgot why you decided to keep that habit up, and in my case that was “changing, improving, etc”.
    Which obviously I’m not doing if I don’t care and leave the habit aside.

    So here I am. Let’s keep going-
