Dear God, Are We There Yet?

Primos y Primas, What does it take to be considered a genius? Is a genius a remarkable musician who moves our spirits, an artist who creates beautiful paintings, a student who scores off the charts on an IQ test or the employee working the Genius Bar at your local Apple store? OK, maybe the last example is pushing it, but consider the other varieties of geniuses -- those with amazing musical, artistic, athletic and intellectual talents. Were the Mozarts and Monets of the world born with their genius? Or did their environment shape who they became? But what if I told you we are all have those genes.

Primos y Primas, sabes que research has shown that while over 90% of us want to volunteer, only 1 out of 4 Americans actually do. Did you know there is a relationship between volunteering and improved physical health and cognitive function? Research also shows that volunteers report elevated mood and less depression, and that volunteers report increased social interactions and social support, better relationship quality, and decreased loneliness. So if most of us want to volunteer, and we believe it is good for us, why aren’t all of us volunteering?Grab that cafecito and vamos hablar!

Primos y Primas, What is a Dream Life? Many people are living a dream-filled life all the time. They have “hacked” their way into it, and probably can help lead you onto your own dreamy path, too. People, from preachers to salesmen, are always encouraging others to “live the life of your dreams.” Now that seems like a narrow group, and there are more individuals beyond those two groups which say similar words to us. Just what does “live the life of your dreams” mean? Is it living like a million-dollar celebrity or a humble servant in the mission field? Is it making sure other people are cared for while your own needs go unmet? It’s like a nebulous space where you can make the call, bucko, on what you want your life to look like every single day. If you were going to live that life, what would it look like? Vamos Hablar like it's 1995!

Primos y Primas BEING NORMAL IS VASTLY OVERRATED!! I think it’s easy to get caught in a trap of trying to look or seem a certain way to other people, especially in this online social world. I love this quote because it really challenges the overall definition of “normal” and the fact that it is not one size fits all. The things that make me happy may be different than what makes you happy. It is so important for us to be true to ourselves and not feel pressure to change that if we think it is what isn’t “normal.” The world is a better place when we are living our own truths and embracing our unique selves proudly.

Primos y primas Que lo Que! If you had to choose critical things you need for success, what would they be? Maybe top on your list would be a well-paying job as a critical factor for success. Whatever it is, you can be sure that success comes not from one, but a combination of many factors that make it happen. Cars, money, houses, a good job are results of success. These things are NOT success. Success is an inside-out concept. What is on the inside of you determines what you achieve on the outside. If you have it right inside, you can be (and do) anything you want out there. You don’t even need tons of money to be successful at all. So does that come from passion or experience?

Primos Y Primas, Let talk about this. If the subconscious mind can create alter egos in order to cope with the world and stressful parts of life. Can one talk to one's alter egos? Are our emotions those alter egos? Just as typical people have ‘internal conversations’ with themselves to sort out thoughts and feelings, alter egos are ‘on call’ to discuss and express various opinions and feelings that have been suppressed or undeveloped in the core personality.

Primas y Primo, have you ever considered that curiosity is the missing puzzle piece to living a happier life? Curiosity is about recognizing and seeking out new knowledge and experiences. Instead of trying desperately to explain and control our world, we embrace uncertainty. Instead of trying to be certain and confident, we see our lives as a quest to discover and grow. There is no internal struggle to avoid the tension of being unsure. We don’t take positive events for granted, instead we investigate and explore them further. I am always asking pero que lo que? not to be a brat, know it all or argumentative but to come to terms with what I believe and not what the world wants me to believe, just because "someone" said so, Grab that cafecito because I'd love to hear what you think?
