Intricacies of change Yes, it has been a while since I last wrote on here, despite my attempt at writing often. Why? The answer is a predictable one. Life has sucked my juice out of me. It’s not that I haven’t been inspired or dedicated time and effort to some of my hobbies and goals,…
Challenge #1: Cornerstone
It’s coming There’s this impulse I feel that leads me to look for something inside myself and outside. Flashforward: I find it and I don’t. Nothing is ever enough.

Challenge #1: Saturday’s finding
Art and life, mysterious stuff Today I want to take advantage of this space to share a video that I’ve just finished watching.

New models for life Years pass by and society changes, the world morphs, and it seems it all happens fast now that I have years to look back at.

Challenge #1: Be present
Hard sometimes, right? It is a goal I have and that is quite –pardon me– present in our society. Be present. Thinking about this obviously makes me think about Zen and what little I learnt about it back in the day. That “fragmented knowledge” often swipes me when I experience something like a breakthrough. If…

Challenge #1: Habit formation
How do you get to writing more? You don’t have to dig deep or surf the web much to know that “practice makes perfect” and that you need to start and be consistent. Right now, I have a million habits I’d like to stick to. I’ve been making some progress, trying to establish a solid…
