To be, or not to be.... remarkable!

Here I am,

I’m being away from blogin on the last couple of weeks, and I can tell that I’m being really busy, and write a long list of justifications of not writing, but the fact is that I haven’t write, and that is lack of commitment with myself, so starting today, I’ll try to go back to my original commitment where I stated that I’ll be writing something EVERY day, so here is today’s post:

Yesterday I went to Muvico cinemas with Sol and Sarai and we watched Alvin and the Chipmunks, and every time we go to that Movie cinema, my daughters are exited. Also last night my two teen went also to that movie theater to watch a movie and to chill out… My daughters enjoy a place that is more expensive than Weston8 cinemas, that is another theater that is close to our neighborhood and Muvico is always packed. I enjoyed the movie from the characters created in 1957 and brought to live by the wonderful Computer animation graphics and the technology that allows to make any character to look real on the screen.

After the movie a questioned myself: Why if Muvico is farther and more expensive than Weston8 people prefer to go over there, even me?

Because the ambience.

That is a reason why we some times we cannot get our ideas or projects fulfilled. We know those are great ideas, inventions or places… but we don’t wrap them on the right way, with something remarkable. What makes something remarkable is its uniqueness and it takes us extra effort to think for something ‘remarkable’.

How remarkable is your life today? How remarkable are the way you are presenting your life in front of others? How remarkable are, not your projects, but the way you are presenting it to the world?

To really succeed as leader you have to look for remarkable even on the small things on your life, because those are the little things that can turn a simple piece of paper onto a huge mega project.

Truth or dare?

One of the things that is surprising to me today, is the low value that many people assign to their own promises. Teenagers don't believe their parents, because they never fulfill their promises; Couples say "I'll stand by you forever" and few months later they walk on the opposite direction; politicians make promises to earn votes, and once the election is done, they forgot about it. I remember one of the first things I learned from my grandmother it was the value of my word. "A gentleman always fulfill his promises, a man with no word has no honor" and I learned to live by that principle. Few weeks ago, I was having a discussion with one of the leaders on the youth ministry at Flamingo Road Church about some technical difficulties we were experiencing during the broadcasting of our Student Service online, and I challenged him to fix the failures, so if he would complete the task with no errors, I will do my hair like him... (He had a Mohawk haircut with ...

World War II and my Dad... a little bit of history Part II

Antonio started a great military career, and he was from the first generation of Pilots who had a formal training with the Mexican Army and US Air Force. He graduated with honors and his generation was called “Los Penicilinos” (The penicillin’s). He was ranked on the 5th place from the Air Force School from 5,000 students. By that time, World War II was on its apogee and German submarines launched an attack against Mexican oil tankers that were providing fuel and materials to the Allies. These attacks eventually caused the Mexican government to declare war on Germany; Mexico was involved on the war and was part of the Alliance, so they needed to send forces to join the battle front. Antonio was promoted to Captain and because of his high qualifications he was part of the leading team of the “The Aztec Eagles” the squad that is historically recognized as the "201". He was trained at Majors Field in Greenville, Texas on November, 1944. Here, he and other pilots received advanc...
