Dancing with it





This morning I was reading the post of Seth Godin, called Dancing with Entropy , a very interesting one with a good point. I am the kind of person that knows that if you want to open fires they have to burn in your heart. I put passion in what I do and I don't like perfection, I don't strive for it. I like a little bit or more of randomnes in my life.While most of the people are already dancing with entropy I am learning how to do it , how to mix and not take everything and just leverage it . 


As Seth said " There is no good, there is no bad, there's just what happened. Dance with it. " and I am. Lately , in the past 1 month as a half I have lived a mixture of moments. I'm now 23 years old but still young and restless and with more passion. I have visited Bratislava , Wien , kept trainings , went to conferences, created training conference ,I went up in the sky with a plane for the first time and it was amazing , went to Holland where I met people from all continents and spent 5 awsome days with them co-creating usefull things , for more than 50.000 members in this incredible organization I am in , AIESEC :)


Here in my big city, Sofia, I can say that I live in the NOW, and I'm honest :) I agree with the fact that " It's a waste of time to fret over things that you've done, that cannot be changed, but it's a fantastic use of time to bask in, the good times, feel grtitude for them and make use of your past to serve your future rise. I have been invited , in October, in Romania at a project called : Living Library , in Bucharest. It's a cool concept, it was held in a library :) where instead of renting books you could rent a person and start reading :) 

You had to go to the person that was renting the "books" , read the summaries of the books and choose one to "read" for about 40 min. You could "read" it wherever you wanted. There were "books" from a lot of places , with diverse backgrounds. I was the book called "Hope in a bottle" , also the name of the book I have  been starting to write for a while.

The point where I want to get is that with all the events in our life we have the option to act or react ,and yes you can go back in your past , but don't go to there to think again about things you can't change, go there to get energy. I am going back in my past to get motivation , to see how much I shaped myself,  thanks to all the people in my life, all those I met and meet , and it's a lovely feeling to leverage on this :)

I am leaving you now with the advice to go back in your past searching for things that make you happy and I invite you to learn how to dance with entropy :)

Kind regards,
