On Management and Life

 I was visiting one of the coolest art exhibition in Bucharest with my friends. I stopped at one of the paintings and took my time to admire it. My friend came next to me and asked: "Are you admiring yourself?". I instantly replied yes. We looked in each other's eyes and we started to laugh. A few days later, it dawned on me what another friend used to tell me: "Ana, every relationship will mirror parts of you". Whenever she was telling me this, I just couldn't grasp it. This leads to what my grandmother used to tell me: "the husband is the mirror of the wife". Every time I had the same question: "How can anyone mirror me, when we are so different?".  We are different, but the essence is so alike. We all have emotional wounds, we all have darkness and we all have light in ourselves. We all suffered from a for of unjustness, a wound of abandonment or just rejection.

That experience reminded me that no matter how difficult life is, we always have a guardian angel. The worse is for the better.  Nowadays, I am involved in another spiritual journey and I received an invitation to a Trance Danc...

Three years ago, my mind was full of thoughts. From the moment I woke up I would think to people in my life, tasks I had to do and somehow the lack of purpose of my life. My personal life was a mess. I took my energy from my work and any social interaction would include cigarettes and booze.

My friend told me something that it is still stuck in my head today: "Stop complaining and dreaming to better days. Start acting. If you want to be healthy in your 60's, now is the moment to start taking better care of yourself".  My first step was to start exercising for 15 minutes daily and to eat better. Even with this small change, my head was still full of thoughts. At that time I was listening to Mind Architect and other related podcasts to understand my brain and myself better. Those steps were not enough, as I was under the impression that there is more I...
