Mónica Ramírez Chimal

Mónica Ramírez Chimal es una persona que como tú, ha vivido situaciones difíciles, pérdidas y uno que otro día malo preguntándose sobre su existencia y objetivo en la vida. Desde su primer trabajo en Arthur Andersen, se dio cuenta de la facultad que tiene de escribir. Empezó a escribir sobre un atardecer y reflexiones de la vida. Eso le valió para tener un distintivo, además del Chimal y las pecas: que le recuerden como alguien que capta la atención de los lectores. Años más tarde habiendo leído varios libros y acumulado más experiencia se dio cuenta de que son varias las vivencias que son comunes para todos, pero que pocos se cuestionan. Por lo cual decidió compartir su pensamiento, en este libro que hoy tienes entre tus manos y que espera te haya ayudado a lograr una mejor versión de ti mismo. “Deseo que cada uno llegue a sentir esa paz, ese calor, ese amor, esa energía, que les permita ser intensamente ustedes mismos. Porque querer es poder y la mente es sumamente poderosa. Recuerda: no es lo que tienes, sino lo que haces con lo que tienes.” Intensamente, La autora

Introduction

Changes…changes…changes…

Is not what we all want? How many times have we thought about how much our lives would change if we are only granted… if only we had what we wanted?

Well… what do we do to make it happen? Because ironically we want a change but it frightens us to start over…

A change without a dream is not done. But neither without action. What we want to become, to have, it can be done. Yes, it can happen. But we need courage; of a huge desire that comes from our guts, wishing fervently that happens. It begins with a decision in our mind to execute what we want. And from there, the next steps will begin to appear.

But how many times you feel like doing something and you hear an inner voice that says, You CAN´T do it? Or, forget it, this is for other people! But what were you thinking?

Then the vast majority of people abandon the idea, thinking that others will assume he is crazy, weird and convinces himself that it is too difficult to do it, to achieve it.

The minority that remains to try, is reduced to more than half because they mistakenly expect immediate results. Patience is a virtue, no doubt. They despair and end up aborting their idea, dream, project. Why think we can control time, life? If this have happened to you… think differently. Why not give our best, do everything possible and believe with our whole being that it will come true? Trust in ourselves, in our effort. Be positive and optimistic.

No matter the age, physical condition, experiences, socioeconomic status, level of education, gender, preferences, etc. Today is your chance to change. Today is your chance to make life yours…

It’s not about who you are, but what you can become.

Haven’t you liked the role you have lived? Are you sick that the same thing happens to you?

While what it has been lived can´t be changed…your present and future CAN BE. At the time you grow, you change; and therefore your environment, bringing new experiences and persons. How? Throughout these fourteen chapters we will see…

Warning

Before starting this process of change, this experience for good, it is necessary to know the following:

-No book is magical. The magic is done by you, at the time when you decide to learn from what you read and apply it to your life. No one can tell you when is the best time to do it. Every life has a rhythm and as such it may not necessarily work with you what for others has been useful. When you’re ready you’ll know. How? You will feel from the depths of your being that is necessary a change… a desire to do it and you not only will read this book but more.

-Be sincere and honest with yourself is essential to carry out a real change. Learn to let go of your past; as well as accept how you really were and are.

-Who changes is you and as such your environment starts doing it. No, is not that the people around you change; it is that changing your mind, you will see things differently. Seeing in that way, you will begin to feel that persons or circumstances do not fit in your life. Unwittingly, you’re going to attract other kind of people and the circumstances will begin to come so that what you want, you will achieve it.

-If at any time throughout this book or any other you come across with ideas that do not make you feel comfortable, stop. Think with all honesty what of the reading you do not like; why discomfort causes. This is called a trigger and if you analyze, it will help you to transform yourself, to not continue suffering and grow. To make the change, you need to release, seeing oneself as we really are. There are already many people with masks … take it off and learn to see you and love you how you are.

-Enjoy the reading, enjoy the process of transformation. Enjoy making your changes in this adventure called life.

-Once you’ve found balance… you’re getting what you want, probably new lessons come to your life. And could feel unbalanced… it is normal. In those moments, you will know apply the: what I need to learn? and if you need reinforcements, look for them. Asking
