Being Lost

3/2/2014

How many times have you felt like you don't belong? That you have nowhere to go or simply you don't know where to look for answers. In my case, way too many. I have to say that when in solitude, I often think about if what I am doing is the right thing to do. Somehow, after several time thinking about it (often referred to as: after I already did it) I regret my decision.

When do you know that you're right? When do you know if what you're doing is correct or beneficial for you in the long run? I guess, it all depends on how well you "plan" your next step. As a still "young adult" I constantly fall into the sunk cost fallacy dilemma: is it worth it to continue doing something that has cost you so much to achieve, yet suffer most of the journey?

Fear; creativity most deadly enemy.

After doing some research on the best companies to work for in the United States, and being an owner of a small company in New York. I understood that it is indeed fear what makes people not only give up on their dreams but become tight about “comfort” in any given place or situation. For example, a manager of a SME. His or her biggest fear is losing their jobs from a person below them, making them become uncertain about their position everyday. In other words, fear makes people uptight and lose perspective of others’ feelings.

Antes de venir a vivir a esta ciudad, siento que jamás imagine cuán difícil iba a ser vivir aquí. Después de tener un súper fail tratando de conseguir un trabajo en Japón, aplicando a más de 250 empresas, siendo aceptado por tres, mi visa de trabajo no pudo ser tramitada porque mi título universitario no fue expedido por una universidad americana. Después de pasar tres semanas lamentándome el hecho de que me tendría que quedar en MTY buscar una trabajo en logística -- la cuál me interesaba en lo más mínimo en ese entonces, decidí buscar opciones en otros lugares.

Is there one way to simplicity? — There are as many ways as there are people who seek an uncomplicated life.

I would like to engage in the world of what it means to pursue simplicity, and if there is a way to get there — or more accurately, the many paths to getting to the many destinations.

What is Simplicity?

I could not found a single definition of simplicity. My view of a simple life will be different from yours or anyone else’s— and none of us is wrong.

My father told me a story when I was 14 years old and it was about someone living in a very rural zone in South America, with no electricity or running water or television or Internet. They used to wake up every morning to chop wood to burn for heat and cooking. They use water from a close by river for drinking and bathing. Nevertheless, these people were not able to go to town; they were indeed living a simple life. That is a pretty simple by most definitions. However, when I talk about pursue simplicity, I do not mean you need to step away from civilization..
