2025 has been a year of contrasts—intense, emotional, transformative. It began with a heartfelt farewell and ends with my soul wide open after the magical, peaceful family moments we usually share in Escondida. In between, there was laughter under a sky full of fireflies outside Kuala Lumpur with my grandson Mauricio; a spiritual retreat in […]
From Competitors to Great Friends Competition is a temptation I can’t resist. I’m driven by an overwhelming desire to win. That’s why I choose my battles carefully, only entering those where I sense a chance of victory. I have to admit, I’m [...]
I blinked. Usually, it takes barely a tenth of a second to blink; at most, five milliseconds more. And that’s how it goes: in the fraction of a second it takes to blink, more than 650 days have passed since the last [...]
Hello, everyone! It’s been ages since we’ve connected here on the blog. I can barely remember where the tilde or the em dash is on the keyboard. It’s so easy to let good habits, healthy eating, or work-life balance slip away. In [...]
In October 2019 I listened to a chat led by an influential professor at the IE Madrid Business School – Dr Teresa Martin Retortillo. Her talk posed a powerful idea: purposeful transformation. I was listening to it alongside members of the G50, [...]

I would not like to compete with Tribu. It is an agency that is too strong, dynamic, cheerful, full of energy, ideas and achievements. That must be why so many agencies have given up. Charita! It would be much more interesting with [...]
Invitation to the next event: Sunday, February 6th. Intercontinental Hotel, 4:00 PM. Some of you may have heard or read some of what we have published about the Openhouse Project. In a nutshell, it is an initiative that focuses on creating a [...]
Costa Rican Gineth Soto will reach the summit of Everest next May. Her second attempt will be the good one, and after an intense preparation, she will be the first person from our country to reach the roof of the world. We [...]
For those things in life, I have visited “the city of sin” more than I would have proposed. I ran a marathon there a few years ago, I’ve spent a couple of yearends there, and on last week’s unexpected visit, we went [...]
In Forum2 there is a sensational tribe of geeks, full of life, energy, youth, talent and commitment. It is a collection of professionals so advanced and on the cutting edge of technology, that it is as exciting to watch them as when [...]
