Puerto Rico

Es increible el pensar lo que puede ser del futuro cuando personas de trasfondos diferentes se unen por el bien común.En una era donde la globalización ha creado conecciones cada vez mas cercanas entre naciones, que un tiempo atrás se encontraban a lo que se sentía como annos luz la una de la otra. Los últimosos han visto la caída de la UniónSoviética y como China se ha catapultado hasta convertirse en una de las economías mas importantes del mundo. 20-30 años han visto la caída Soviética y como China se ha catapultado hasta convertirse en una de las economías mas importantes del mundo.

Ante este marco de contrastes nuestras naciones necesitan lideres que posean visión mas allá de lo inmediato. Esto no significa que se desatiendan las necesidades inmediatas; sino que se evalúen y esbocen soluciones que, de cara al futuro establezcan una fundación firme en la cual se pueda cimentar un crecimiento firme y sustentando.

El momento en que vivimos es uno de increíbles retos que requieren las contribuciones de todos los miembros de la sociedad. Este no es momento de sembrar rencillas entre una parte y la otra por motivos puramente políticos. Es necesario el escuchar y el evaluar las ideas, no importa de donde provengan con la seriedad y la atención que este momento histórico amerita. Puerto Rico, al igual que el resto del mundo necesita de verdaderos hombres de estado que antepongan el bien común a ideologías o fidelidades político partidistas. Puerto Rico no aguanta mas el ataque a sus instituciones y el desmantelamiento de buenos programas solo por el mero hecho de haber sido implantados por un adversario político.

Puerto Rico cuenta con una cantera de talento increíble, pero lamentablemente no se le da el verdadero respeto que se merece. Vemos como se refuerza y se idolatra lo malo y lo positivo se ahoga en un mar de mediocridad.

Es tiempo que nos unamos de verdad en busca de un Puerto Rico mejor. No hay necesidad que unos pierdan para que otros ganen. Si unimos nuestras voluntades por el bien común podemos hacer de nuestra isla un reflejo del éxito que los hijos de esta han encontrado en el exterior. Solamente unidos, todos los sectores podremos alcanzar este futuro brillante que Borinquen se merece.

Taking the high road

In business, like in life we face difficult situations. It is easy to be carried by the heat of the moment and give into the blame game. Chances of success can be improved by shifting the focus from what was not done to what needs to be done. No amount of intellectual capital can overcome poor planning and lack of preparation. Good managers know this, exceptional managers instill it in their people. When someone is trying to throw you under the bus rather than face their own shortcomings it is better to be the one that provides the plan that will move the effort forward. After all, there will always be time later to discuss lessons learned.

Where is personal responsibility?

We live in a world were some request sacrifice as long as is someone else who is doing the sacrifice. For all the talk about freedom and liberty that you hear in the media and their importance, a simple but key element of the american experience seems missing. Personal responsibility. This used to be a good guiding principle. I firmly believe that my own sense of personal responsibility has served me well and has contributed to my success greatly. Just because I am at liberty or have the freedom to follow a certain path it means that I am free from the responsibility of the impact of my actions on others.

In the absence of personal responsibility the social fabric tha unites us all but tears apart. By not fully evaluating the consequences of our actions we fail to grasp one of the causes of our own potential undoing. It is easy to find a scapegoat, someone to assign the blame when it could be as easy as looking yourself in the mirror.

Not all is lost, those of use who truly believe in the need for accountability should speak up and educate those that preach blind freedom and liberty that to truly enjoy them you have the responsibility to ensure those same ideals are available to everyone else.

Going mobile!

It is amazing how technology can enable us to be more connected than ever. It is possible that with the right two devicea tou can work from almost anywhere. I will try to take advantage if this and start updating the blog once again.

Thanks,

La vida, la vida

I don't want to be too full of myself but I think the following is true:

"Life gives us seeds of experience. It is up to us to sow them and harvest true wisdom."

What seeds have you planted today? Which ones are you harvesting to take you to the next level? It is up to you... take control and live life to the fullest.

Loving every minute,

Yes, I am still alive - and Recruiting!

What a ride! I had so many visits this summer that I would need a vacation from vacation time. It seems that every weekend we are doing something. On the other hand there are a lot of interesting things happening. I can't believe that my last post was back in May!

I really have meant to blog again... I never thought that starting a business will be so much work! There are some checks for the win column. We are moving forward on several countries in Central and South America.

My company is currently recruiting for several well paid positions in San Diego, CA; Columbia, MD and Rochester, NY

The keys to the city

On a ceremony on Wednesday yours truly and other fellow veterans were recognized by the Miami Beach City Commission. An initiative of Hon. Comissioner Libbin, is a token of appreciation from the City of Miami Beach to its veterans. An effort that should be emulated across the nation.
