I learn by walking my life path
Life is an adventurous journey. Days go by and sometimes everything, except you, change. That’s what happened to me a few years back, when my inner self was telling me I wasn’t taking the right path…
Welcome to my e-real short story…
I didn’t know where I was, nor didn’t I know where I was heading to
Let me go back a few years ago. I didn’t know how to continue my journey. I worked in an office with a stable job. I had a good income, a career opportunity, and so on… You know what I mean, huh?
I had many ideas, but also uncertainties and fears. I wanted to be free, to have time to do what I was passionate about, to enjoy what was truly valuable, to materialize my dreams, to realize my life journey and even to fulfill my goals as an entrepreneur! But all of them remained for a utopian later…
I didn’t know where I was going, but I was going somewhere
I read many articles, blogs, books, etc. Watched tons of videos, read papers, listed gurus, studied books, but still I was in the viewer’s side. I knew all the lessons. I needed to put in practice all the theories…
What if I let my inner spirit lead my steps instead of controlling my mind?
One day, with 40 years old and against all the social musts that you can imagine, I released the certainty and went through the unknown. I got a one-way ticket to Spain. I started exploring the World as a traveler. I had little savings in my pocket and a lot of fresh air to inhale.
Soon the butterfly effect started to show up. I completed the Camino de Santiago in Spain and continued my never ending way. I had the chance to meet digital nomads in an event and listened about the Estonian e-residency program. I immediately applied to the program. I didn’t know much the how, but I knew the where that fitted perfectly to my desired lifestyle. Right after completing the submission and paying the 100 € fees to become an e-resident; I received the letter to visit an Estonian embassy and to proceed with my signature.
Gosh! I didn’t know that I had to go personally to leave my signature!
There were no offices in South America at that time. So, I didn’t want to lose my 100 € investment and I didn’t hesitate to get a flight ticket to Europe. I prepared my light luggage again and got ready to fly from Argentina to Europe to leave my signature and, of course, had the great chance to hike another trail.
I see the light at the end of the tunnel
Today I can combine my passion for hiking around the world, sharing my book “The Field of Stars on the Path of Life” and sharing talks as a pilgrim, with serving as a digital business entrepreneur wherever I’m at. My office is in a light laptop under my arms. No sticking to the business location anymore. Neither I lose commuting time due to the traffic jam, nor do I stick to unproductive office schedules. I am a founder of upKaizen, which helps companies to perform operational processes easier. upKaizen is my life philosophy onto businesses: weightless and productive. Thanks to my Estonian e-business, I keep connected to real people and get clients from other corners of the globe.
I am the architect of my own path, a digital entrepreneur carrying my e-office under my arms with a business that I am passionate about and that also contributes to improve the lives of others. Thank you!
I’m still learning but I’m walking my way
By walking I learned and still learn thousands of valuable things. Now I learn by doing. I believe it’s the right way. I’d like to share with you my learnings that refuel my body, my mind and my spirit.
· Life is a walking path! Walk it!
· It’s great to be on the summit, but most of the time we’re walking towards it. Live it!
· It doesn’t exist the wrong way. The way is unique!
· Life is not always a straight line!
· You walk what you walk. No one else will walk for you.
· When I connect with my dream, time loses its physical identity.
· My goals are so distant, but I get closer with every single step.
· We live a short life’s dream, let’s make it real now!
· Make your intentions public!
· Give room to the silence 5 min a day!
· Do nothing from time to time. It’s very productive.
· Take things seriously, but at the end of the day take it easy…
· Don’t leave your way without expressing your music!!
Now it is your time to start walking
Now it’s your time and your decision. It doesn’t matter where you are or how far the way is. You have a lot to offer and there are a lot of people that need you!
I’d feel so inspired if you told me your own story soon.
“How did you jumped from the viewer side to the doing side?”
I wish you all the best on your own way!
