Despues de un gran remolino de actividad en el trabajo, debido a un proceso de innovación que afectó al 100% de todas las áreas; junto con los acontecimientos económicos que afectaron recientemente al muindo, sumados a la crisis de la mediania, dieron como resultado que este blog haya estado inactivo.
Déjenme decirlo en otras palabras, me sentía fatal. Hasta el día de hoy que leí en Is Fear Affecting Your Decision-Making? lo siguiente:
[...] here’s a story that might help:
When the dot-com bubble burst in 2001, my Silicon Valley startup couldn’t raise capital and ultimately filed for bankruptcy. As CEO, I lost my job. To make matters worse, I was heavily invested in tech stocks. On a dead cat bounce, I doubled down, thinking the market had bottomed. I was dead wrong.
I was so disappointed with myself I couldn’t look my wife in the eye for weeks. Then one fateful night, I had a thought. So what? What’s the worst that can happen? So I don’t retire young. Big deal. I’ve got at least another decade, maybe two, of earning potential. I’ll make the money back or die trying.
Once I let go and stopped worrying about my job and bank account, I was free of fear. Suffice to say that everything turned out fine, but it wouldn’t have if I hadn’t had that moment of clarity. To summarize, I’d say that obsessing over your career and money has a negative effect on both. Hope that helps.
Llaménme cursi, pero me gusta la idea de la Esperanza.
