Todos nos sentimos desanimados a veces, por eso es esencial recordar lo positivo. Motivate y aprende al mismo tiempo.
En este episodio aprende palabras nuevas recordando lo positivo.

Cuentos breves de motivación.

Recuerda lo positivo.

Durante mi estancia como profesor para nepalís en India, algunas noches entre té y té, disfrutaba de charlas sobre el Himalaya. Fábulas del Nepal sobre el origen del mundo, de la cascada que nace el Ganges desde la cabellera de Shiva y también de las hazañas de los sherpas que conocen hasta el más mínimo secreto de la cordillera más impresionante de nuestro planeta. Casi todos decían lo mismo: el Everest es el más alto, pero no es el más difícil de ascender.

¡Hacia la cima!

Tengo notas escritas en papel de ideas, recuerdos, inspiraciones... apuntes por todos lados. En la puerta de la nevera, en el teléfono, entre los libros, en mi mesa de trabajo, en diarios personales y no tan personales, en mi carpeta de poemas... ¡¡¡Por todos lados!!! 

Notas sueltas, igual que las notas que farandulean por el aire cuando un director de orquesta sinfónica alza sus batutas y las notas de los instrumentos surcan el aire sin control.

Your Spanish Journey

False friends in Spanish and English- 10 most common mistakes

To be a successful leader, marketer, salesperson, or even job candidate, you need to be able to tell business stories well. Leaders tell stories to inspire their employees and to help them see what’s possible or to teach them something. They also tell investors, donors, board members, and others impact stories that reassure them their time and money are working. 

Business stories hold so much potential that I think they should be told every single day in workplace interactions! 

Even if you don’t identify as a storyteller, you will be prompted to tell stories at times in your career. But most people are not natural-born storytellers. It’s a skill that takes training and practice. 

Tune into the latest Express to Impress Podcast episode to business storytelling techniques. With a little practice, you’ll be a great storyteller in no time!
