La Amistad (The frienship)

The boardroom shimmered with anticipation. It was our moment – the chance to present our green energy solution to a potential billion-dollar partner.  Months of research and development hung in the balance.  As CEO, I knew the presentation had to be flawless.

Flashback six weeks.  We'd made the initial contact with them, but our initial proposal was met with a lukewarm response.  Their feedback – "unclear goals" and "lack of data-driven evidence."  It was a harsh lesson.  We'd underestimated the importance of clear communication.

This time, we went all in on preparation.  We drilled down on their specific needs, tailoring our presentation to address their environmental goals and cost-saving projections.  Data became our mantra.  Charts, graphs, and case studies were meticulously crafted to showcase the impact of our technology.

Anticipating questions was paramount.  Our team planned every scenario, rehearsing responses until they were clear, concise, and confident.  Even the presentation slides – clean, visually appealing, and focused on the message – became a communication tool.

Fast forward to the meeting.  My opening statement resonated.  It wasn't just about our technology; it was about a shared vision for a sustainable future.  The data painted a compelling picture, each statistic linked back to the investor's needs.  When questions arose, our team delivered prepared, impactful responses.

The atmosphere shifted.  Their executives leaned forward, engaged.  The follow-up discussions were lively, brimming with possibilities.  We left that day with a handshake and a renewed sense of optimism.

Weeks later, they signed the partnership agreement.  Looking back, it wasn't just our technology that won them over.  It was the preparation, the clear communication, and the confidence we exuded. In business, effective communication is the bridge between good ideas and successful partnerships.  And that bridge is built on preparation.

El yoga con calor (también llamado Hot Yoga) hace que los pulmones y el corazón trabajen más y, como en las sesiones sin calor, esta práctica te ayuda a mejorar la fuerza y la flexibilidad.

* Beneficio Nº1. Mejora la flexibilidad. Estirar cuando los músculos se han calentado (como se hace en el Hot Yoga) aumenta la flexibilidad y mejora la amplitud de movimiento de las articulaciones. Un estudio de marzo de 2013 del Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research demostró que, tras 8 semanas, las personas que practicaron hot yoga tenían más flexibilidad en los hombros, la zona lumbar y los isquiotibiales que el grupo de control. La flexibilidad ayuda a adoptar determinadas posturas de yoga con más facilidad, sobre todo las que requieren un estiramiento profundo. Además, el yoga fortalece los músculos. El mismo estudio demostró que los participantes podían levantar más en peso muerto.

* Beneficio Nº2. Aumenta la capacidad pulmonar. Como el yoga se centra en técnicas de respiración y te enseña a concentrarte al inspirar y espirar, entrena los pulmones para retener más aire. Respirar hondo habitualmente permite que entre más oxígeno en el flujo sanguíneo, mantiene los pulmones sanos y aumenta la capacidad pulmonar, que suele disminuir con la edad. El pranayama es un tipo de ejercicios de yoga concreto que se centra en controlar la respiración durante un periodo de tiempo determinado. En él, se trabaja la respiración abdominal, la torácica y la clavicular, lo que te ayuda a maximizar la entrada de oxígeno.
