The free world.

At least that´s what has been told about our era.

Think about it: zillions of data, metrics, people… all connected.

Not only in the digital world.

But in the “free”, damaged, world.

There´s a lot to process. Every single day.

Tasks to do. People to meet. Leads to follow. Steps to take.

Infinite possibilities. And inside all of this massive chaos… there is… you.

You.

The one who needs to choose which of these “freedoms” to pick and give it a nice entrance into your life.

How do you know if the little piece of the “free” world you choose to consume is of any good to you?

You have a damn hard task here, friend.

It ain´t easy. It´s a HUGE demand for your energy.

Sometimes, freedom is a cage.

A cage of ideas.

A cage of stories you tell yourself.

Of stories, the world tells to you.

Of the daily habits you decide to take.

Of the emotions you neglect.

Sometimes, if you aren´t cautious enough, this freedom of yours will consume your life.

Downgrade it.

Make you doubt about any progress.

Fear any change that might open a door for you.

There´s a price to pay for the freedom you want in life.

But how do you make sure you can escape from that cage?

It isn´t about choosing more.

It´s about choosing less.

Less distractions, more focus.

Because, if you haven´t tamed your mind, you´ve enslaved yourself to prejudices, opinions, identities, bad habits… you name it.

And who wants to cease control of their own life?

I bet you want to take control of your life.

This is the lemma: Tame your mind, save your life.

In short:

You don´t get to live freely without any cost.

There´s a quality process for each of the millions of possibilities you choose to live in your everyday life.

You have control over the quality of your freedom.

You can escape the cage you are trapped in, by training your mind to question, hear, and experiment more.

Learn to see the unseen, and you´ll get to live more freely, on your own terms, with your own steps.

Hope this inspires you to break off a bad cycle and construct a way out, friend.

See you soon, remember: I´m rooting for you.
