Translated from Spanish by AI. Ornella wrote this story in Spanish.

Within the mental labyrinth and in moments of order, I arrived at this great strategy and life agenda. Out of all the personal development courses, I have never felt as satisfied and organized as in this one. I only know that, from this moment on, I respect and honor my being and its desires. It's not that it's shallow, it simply wants to express the essence of my being in its totality and live a full life, full of light, happiness, love, gratitude and prosperity. Regarding the areas of life, in my health and fitness I set as a premise “keep my body healthy, active and revitalized. This implies discipline, self-care and a lot of love. I want to give all of myself and be at my one hundred percent”. My vision in health and fitness is based on being able to “use my physical body to the fullest, as a means of self-expression, freedom, balance and life. As well as full of vitality and energy”. As for purpose, well, I want the following: “to live fully, to feel part of nature, to feel strong and powerful. To have an integrated experience with my physical body and be the material expression of my spiritual being”. The strategies to fulfill this area are: “meditate daily, practice sports I'm passionate about (the board, trekking and dance). When I think about the second category, intellectual life, my premise is: “my mind is limitless, capable of learning and grasping everything I set out to do”. As for the vision, I intend to “cultivate my mind and expand it. Fill it with wisdom and productive thoughts that fill me with peace and complete satisfaction. That every day my intellect develops and uses its potential to the fullest, for my understanding and that of those around me”. As purpose I have “to live a completely productive, wise and developed life. One in which a collective intellectual life can be formed”. Regarding the strategies to achieve what I've set out, I am going to “do games, cognitive exercises, readings, spaces for meditation, creativity and intellectual development”. In the area of emotional life, as premises I set out “to have control of my inner world, I honor it and heal it constantly; my emotions are there for a reason, I respect their messages, I listen to them and understand them, I give them the attention they require, I let them pass; I am enough to evoke the emotions I consider necessary; I will not be afraid to feel, even if it hurts…I will be brave and I will heal all my emotional wounds; my emotional health is what allows me to be conscious”. My vision in this area is to “value, respect and integrate the messages that each emotion, my own and others', conveys to me; I develop a great emotional intelligence to share, full of gratitude and fulfillment”. As for purpose, well, I want “to develop emotional states full of constant gratitude and fulfillment; in which my peace is unshakable, regardless of what surrounds me and comes up”. The strategies to achieve it are “create memories, experiences and moments of pleasant emotions; identify what makes me smile and be happy; identify what withers me and disturbs my peace, so as not to go back to it”. My character, in determining everything in my life, I want to start with the following premises “staying calm always gives me clarity to make good decisions. Trust consciously, analyzing the pros and cons of each situation; a good character is a free character, authentic, free to be who it is and to value itself, aware that its opinions matter; a good character is one that is founded on coherence, calm, stability, and security, one that seeks balance and freedom”. The vision is that “I am a winner, I share fulfillment, gratitude and love, I am honest, reliable and abundant, I am spirit and I am light, full of calm and clarity, I am just as God created me, lovable; having a good character simplifies your life”. My purpose in all this is “to establish a free and healthy lifestyle through the practice of conscious personal development, having a good character implies being willing to recognize mistakes and correct them, as well as growing individually and socially”. The strategies for this area are “persevere, follow my agenda and goals to notice the changes; fulfill all the goals I set for myself, even if it takes time and I will do it in the most entertaining and interesting way possible for me”. The next area, spiritual life, is the most beautiful for me. I feel it is my strength and foundation for the growth and expansion of all the others. As premises I set myself to “respect beliefs, opinions, forms of ortos, as well as my own, we all teach each other about spirituality, we integrate the consciousness of the great experience; I want to be the best version of myself and leave the best contribution I can give of myself to the world; develop constantly and share development and enlightenment with others; I want to find my place in the universe and belong, grow in community, as well as develop on an individual level”. My vision implies “seeing a path of enlightenment, of expansion, of peace and unconditional love, as well as of personal and communal development and growth; my path is to awaken a little more each day until I understand this dimension in its totality and give the world the light I receive; my spiritual path is full of fulfillment, love and abundance, I connect with and respect the beings who appear on my path and they with me; expansion and light are the path to the spirituality we deserve”. The purpose I find in this is “to be me, use my talents, have the desire to live genuinely and find my own place; the spiritual path fills me with fulfillment and satisfaction, I think it is the best experience of my life; I want to find the truth and be just as God created me”. The strategies to achieve it are: “meditate daily to have mental clarity, peace harmony and wisdom; be able to connect with the creator God, through a constant dialogue of spiritual guidance and wisdom; I will make spirituality a very fun parea, because the key is in happiness, joy and gladness; my spirituality implies a great sense of humor and a creative way of seeing life in every circumstance”. As for love life, my premises are “I want to be light, with that unique love that grows more each day, to accompany each other along the path of life; I want to be my best version and not be afraid of myself, having self-love and respect allows me to give and receive the same; to be a strong and solid family, raise beautiful people in this world, give each other love and stability in every sense; there exists the perfect partner for me, whom I will make very happy, I am the perfect partner for someone, who will make me happier”. The vision in this area is “to have a full and lasting relationship; my husband is my friend and life companion, the person I trust and lean on the most, this is reciprocal, to have a genuine love that forgives, grows and keeps moving forward, an example of love, inspiration and hope for others; a real love that accepts me just as I am, trusts in my potential, pure and natural love.” The purpose in this area is “to live love shared with another and expand the original feeling of love; I want a full relationship, full of greatness and abundance, that gives me stability; I want to love every part of my being and be satisfied with it, empower myself and live my femininity as it should be, beside my life companion, one who protects me and loves all of me and I all of him”. The strategies to achieve these goals are “show my love through words and actions; pay attention to complaints and compliments, have exciting sexual moments and greater awareness of sexuality; I will be direct, I won't play dumb and I will express what I feel, I will be realistic, I will show my love with actions, I will always be there for him, just as he for me; I know he needs me and I him, we are looking for each other; he will be an extraordinary person and we will grow together, we reinvent ourselves every day to keep love burning, in constant excitement”. Regarding family, my premises are “I want to be a better example to follow, be my best version and a great teacher, I wish with all my heart that my next generations develop more than I did; be flexible and firm, discipline and love, give them all the intellectual and emotional tools to understand this world and integrate into it; share beautiful moments that lo fill us with light and calm”. In the vision I want “to care for people who are physically, psychologically and spiritually healthy, who seek to expand constantly; who recognize their divine condition naturally and exploit their mental potential”. The purpose of this is “to develop a world of conscious beings; to care for and develop beings of light”. The strategies to achieve it are “dedicate attention and time to them, I will have clear and established limits, but ones that don't limit their natural freedom; as fundamental values are respecting roles, spaces and always being honest and sensible”. Social life, in this space of my life I set myself the following premises “my friends are my little soul siblings, I love sharing with them, giving them a space of peace and love where we can cultivate our friendship”. The vision I have is “I attract and share love with my beautiful friends, we do things that make us happy, we accept and tolerate each other just as we are; we form a sisterhood of support, affection and unity”. My porpose in this is “to be happy through my relationships, cultivate friendships that fill me with energy, reciprocity and oneness”.

In the finances category, I set out these premises “money allows me to have what I want in material terms, it gives me quality of life, well-being and allows me to explore and share pleasant moments of abundance with others; money allows me to expand my being materially, through it I can reach more people and share the message of prosperity; I want to respect money, understand how it works and move under its rules; I know that money is good and I can do great works with it, I value it, appreciate it and respect it, as if it were the capacity of divine representation, through it I can manifest the world I desire”.

My purpose is to “change the world for the better and money allows me to do great works for communities; I want to have a higher quality of life and money allows me to have whatever I need or require at the moment; I want to give the best of me and receive the best”. The strategies to use are “I set out to do different things to have more income every day; I set out to save in one of my accounts 10% of what comes in from today on; I set out to reduce my expenses without leaving myself aside and neglecting myself, first comes my health and that of the beings I committed to caring for; day by day I will do something that brings me closer to greater financial freedom and I will always remember it, money won't come when I devote myself to fantasizing”. In my professional life, my premises are “loving what I do is an important value, in my profession I want to reflect my value, passion and vocation in what I do; through my vocation of service, I try to be better every day to support and reach more people, my first example and work is myself; I want to contribute to the development of people, families and societies, through community work, paid and voluntary; if I make people grow, I grow in every sense; I know my talents and skills, management is one of them, so I can have different businesses and sources of income, all of them reward me with the same love and dedication I give in everything I do”. The vision in this area is “to love what I do, show that my talents and skills in my field are indispensable, I always stay calm, wonderful people contact me to acquire my services, accompaniment and advice, I am a life mentor dedicated to studying and researching human development in all its senses”. The purpose of this is “to evolve as a society, my professional career is where personal development, wealth, quality of life and contribution to the world come together; To evolve as a society through knowledge of the mental capacities of the human being; to develop a society sustainable over time, that integrates with the other natural systems of the world, other beings and natural resources; to develop community values, cooperation and constant growth; to promote well-being and mental health in families, couples and individuals”. The strategies are “self-discipline every day I will make some progress to perfect my knowledge as a psychologist; I will give equal attention to all areas of my life, if I don't feel good, I don't do things well, I will be in the present, during my work I will keep the greatest possible attention to do what I do very consciously; I will do meditation and attention exercises daily to improve my focused attention; I will have order and organization in my day to day and I will commit to keeping my own schedule; I will make this schedule very conscious of my rhythm, lifestyle and needs”. You can't have great achievements without great challenges! As for my lifestyle, I have the following premises “having a quality life is the most important thing, we came to enjoy life, not to fill it with suffering and sacrifice, I want to have challenges and achievements, an exciting life, fill it with experiences that allow me to learn more and more and value every detail, taste and pleasure of life; I came to fill myself with calm, ecstasy and fulfillment, and to recognize my position in the face of life; I want to have what I need to explore the world as I please and share my life experience” Fill yourself with experiences, we came to learn”.

And together find the step by step to reach our self-realization” Happiness is lived when it is shared! (into the wild). My purpose is to “be happy, enjoy and radiate well-being and prosperity, I want to transmit the experience and share it, to be more and more each time; every lifestyle is very authentic and necessary to fill all of us with great experiences”. My strategies are “give myself constant love and the best personal care; improve at something every day, identify what I want to change for the better; keep order and cleanliness in my surroundings as much as possible, be aware that if I inhabit a space, it's because I'm capable of maintaining it; have touches in my space that allow me to find calm and fulfillment whenever needed; always move forward, however small the step I take, may my steps focus on moving forward and not on making others stumble ” Be the path you want to see in the world! (Gandhi) We are all a goal in ourselves. My life vision is “To use my physical body to the fullest, as a means of self-expression, freedom, balance and life. As well as full of vitality and energy. I intend to cultivate my mind and expand it. Fill it with wisdom and productive thoughts that fill me with peace and complete satisfaction.
