La felicidad y el optimismo impulsan la acci\u00f3n y el logro.\u201d \n\n~ Shawn Achor, La Felicidad Como Ventaja<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Sabe cual es uno de mis temores m\u00e1s grandes? El desperdiciar mi tiempo en cosas que no importan. Hay un poema cuyo nombre no recuerdo (por cierto si se lo sabe, digame por favor que lo he buscado por mucho tiempo). Cambio mi vida cuando estaba en la universidad. Y eso que ni siquiera leo poes\u00edas! Era la historia de un bot\u00e1nico que pas\u00f3 la vida entera estudiando los componentes de una rosa. Las mol\u00e9culas, la composici\u00f3n, etc. Luego cuando estaba en su cama de lecho, alguien trajo una rosa en vasito de agua y lo puso sobre la mesa al lado de su cama. Cuando volvi\u00f3 a verla, se llen\u00f3 de tristeza. Por primera vez vio la hermosura de la rosa. Lamento que se pas\u00f3 la vida examinandola y nunca apreciando su belleza.Todav\u00eda recuerdo ese momento. A los 18 a\u00f1os, experiment\u00e9 el pensamiento de que era posible desperdiciar mi vida enfocada en la cosa equivocada!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">No es sorprendente, entonces, que una de mis oraciones de la vida se encuentre en el Salmo 90:12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">\u201cEns\u00e9\u00f1anos a contar bien nuestros d\u00edas, para que nuestro coraz\u00f3n adquiera sabidur\u00eda.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Cuando se siente exhausto(a), sobrecargado(a), estresado(a) acerca de todas las cosas que necesita hacer, quiz\u00e1s ha perdido el enfoque en sus prioridades. De vez en cuando tenemos que tomar un paso atr\u00e1s para evaluar nuestra lista de actividades y compararla con nuestras metas. Es cierto que a veces hay circunstancias que no podemos controlar. Pero tambi\u00e9n hay muchas que s\u00ed podemos controlar. El decir no a ciertas cosas para que podamas decir si a las cosas importantes en nuestra vida, por ejemplo. Escoger hacer lo que est\u00e1 correcto en vez de lo que complace a los dem\u00e1s. Recordar que necesitamos descanso y que no lo podemos hacer todo solos. Tal parece que los estudios han confirmado lo que hemos pensado todo este tiempo. La felicidad es la que impulsa la acci\u00f3n y el logro, no al rev\u00e9s.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cMore than a decade of groundbreaking research in the fields of positive psychology and neuroscience has proven in no uncertain terms that the relationship between success and happiness works the other way around\u2026happiness and optimism actually fuel performance and achievement.\u201d ~Shawn Achor, The Happiness Advantage You know what one of my greatest fears is?
