March, half marathon Paris

Already March!
And that means that next weekend I will be in Paris running the 1/2 marathon :) 
After a good couple of weeks with long trainings, and today a fast race (10km 40min26sec); I am ready!
But this time there is not any specific goal...the only objective is to finish in front of Daniele Vinci :) and to enjoy the race and the entire weekend with friends! (http://www.semideparis.com)

Before the weekend (and I expect that everyone already knows that) we will have in Barcelona the MCW2013 (http://www.mobileworldcongress.com/); such an event will bring together some of the world's biggest industry players in the wireless and mobile space. Let's all make sure that those guys get a good impression of our city and our apps (IT) companies!
Of course http://quartprimera.com/ fully booked!

Convenience vs Inconvenience*

I'm a big fan of using technology to make my life easier.  I have Flycut, which saves my last 40 cuts to paste.  I have Lastpass which allows me to save my passwords, fill in forms with multiple addresses and a bunch of other things.  I always save my profile on websites so that I don’t have to enter all my details later.  There’s some risk to this, I know, but the time it saves me is worth it.

Recently though, I lost my wallet and had to have my bank cards reordered.  Every time I went to buy anything ANYWHERE online, the payment didn’t go through and I had to enter all those details again.  None of my repeating payments went through and in some cases I actually had to write a check, find an envelope and put a stamp on it.  Ugh.

While I was in this period, I was quite grumpy about it.  It was very inconvenient.  Later, when I was over my funk, I thought about all the time I’ve saved over the last year of having my original cards, and all the time I save when I set up my email, my documents, my phone, and every other technological wonder in my house.  It’s an inconvenient to have to redo some parts of that, but it’s much less than the time I save overall.  Stephen Covey calls setting yourself up to be efficient ‘sharpening the saw’.  Now my saw is sharp again, and I’m back to peak efficiency.  It turned out to be just a minor inconvenience.  What can you do today to make tomorrow more efficient?

SO TRUE!

Belgium / EU / #findyourway

Yes, after 24h I understood why I came back to Spain (Tarragona) around a year ago...the weather!
Let me be honest, the weather is important because it change the way you do things, but now a days other things are also important...and the economic situation is one of them. Things here are different....this is EU! And it's good to disconnect about our reality, the Spanish shitty realty!

We are young! My generation is ready to change things, but they (the government) does not allow us and will not!

Probably is time for new challenges...in the EU?! :)
