Happiness – reflections of a 50-year-old
My dear readers: I have started writing my fourth book entitled 'Happiness - reflections of a 50-year-old' . I will share some excerpts of it in this post.
What is the real meaning of success?
Each of us can define our own success. In order to do so, one can ask oneself the question: How will I know that I have achieved (am achieving) success? For me, success is living a peaceful life, getting rid of stressors, having a good, rewarding job, setting financial goals and achieving them, having healthy relationships with my wife and other people, developing interests (e.g. personal development, Slavic languages).
“This transcendent nature is the core of our true value and meaning” (Jim McManus CSsR).
"Esta naturaleza trascendente es el núcleo de nuestro verdadero valor y significado" (Jim McManus CSsR). (This post is in English and Spanish) Let me start with a quote from the book "The Inside Job. A Spirituality of True Self-Esteem". Permítanme empezar con una cita del libro "The Inside Job. A Spirituality of True Self-Esteem".

A few thoughts on anxieties (from my third book entitled “A Cure for Anxiety”).
"By working on ourselves (with the help of a therapist or on our own) we are able to "work through" our anxieties little by little. Getting rid of them is freeing, rewarding and opens up new possibilities. When we are afraid, we do not dare to live the way we - in fact - want to live. Anxieties limit us, they want to enslave us and often succeed in doing so."

A few excerpts from my third book “A Cure for Anxiety”
Introduction. What will you learn from this book? This book is divided into four chapters, each of which deals with a separate aspect of anxiety, worry and fear. In chapter one, I outline what anxiety, worry and fear are (among other things, I give their definitions). In chapter two, I describe the negative sides of living with anxieties. In chapter three, I give reasons for getting rid of most (or all) anxieties. In chapter four, I introduce ideas related to anxieties and describe how to do practical exercises to 'work through' anxieties in order to deal with them effectively."
“A cure for anxiety”: some excerpts from my 3rd book
"In this section of the book, I want to share what I fear, what my fears are. I fear (November 2022) only two things (situations or events): I fear the justice of God (who, after my death, will judge my thoughts, words and deeds committed during my earthly life) and the sudden death of my beloved wife. Other than that, I am not afraid of anything or anyone. You may wonder: "How is this possible?"
What is emotional intelligence?
Some of the signs of emotional intelligence are: the ability to recognise and describe what people are feeling, awareness of personal strengths and limitations, self-confidence and self-acceptance.
