¡Hola chicas hermosas de LOH!

La iniciativa "Ladies of Hive Community Contest #261" de esta semana, es amplia e interesante, me costó decidir por una opción, así que desarrollaré los tres tópicos propuestos:

Hello beautiful LOH girls!

The initiative "Ladies of Hive Community Contest #261" of this week, is wide and interesting, I had a hard time deciding on one option, so I will develop the three proposed topics:


1️⃣ Una empresa extranjera te ha ofrecido un trabajo en un país que siempre has querido visitar. Sin embargo, no puedes llevarte a tu familia inmediata (cónyuge e hijos) contigo hasta dentro de dos años. ¿Aprovecharías la oportunidad? Comparte tu opinión, por favor.

Es una decisión muy difícil y hace algunos años, cuando mis hijos eran pequeños, sin dudar hubiera dicho que no, pero ahora que ellos tienen 17 y 14 años y que siento la necesidad de generar un mayor ingreso de dinero, para garantizar un mejor futuro para todos, diría que sí, aún cuando sería un gran sacrificio, porque ninguna madre quiere separarse de sus hijos y, aunque ellos ya son adolescentes, sé que aún me necesitan, además, me gusta ser parte de sus vidas y estar allí para apoyarlos en todo momento.

En cuanto a mi esposo, ya estuvimos separados por 9 años debido a su trabajo , así que no sería ningún problema.

1️⃣ You were offered a job by an overseas firm in a country you've always wanted to visit. However, you cannot take your immediate family (spouse and kids) with you until two years later. Would you grab the opportunity? Share your thoughts, please.

It is a very difficult decision and some years ago, when my children were young, without hesitation I would have said no, but now that they are 17 and 14 years old and I feel the need to generate more money income, to ensure a better future for all, I would say yes, even though it would be a big sacrifice, because no mother wants to be separated from her children and, although they are already teenagers, I know they still need me, besides, I like to be part of their lives and be there to support them at all times.

As for my husband, we were already separated for 9 years due to his job, so it wouldn't be a problem.



2️⃣ ¿Tienes pensamientos negativos sobre ti mismo? ¿Cuál es y estás haciendo algo para replanteártelo y adoptar una perspectiva más positiva?

El pensamiento negativo sobre mí misma más recurrente, es a no ser suficiente y fracasar.

Por ejemplo, hace poco mi esposo me comentó acerca de la oportunidad de un empleo en otra empresa, con un mejor salario; sin embargo, ese escenario me llena de dudas, porque creo que hoy en día hay mucha competitividad y como siempre he trabajado en la misma gerencia, no sé si estoy preparada para empezar de nuevo en otro sitio. Además, ya tengo 51 años, la edad también me parece un aspecto limitante.

Creo que hay decisiones que no pueden tomarse a la ligera, siempre he elegido las opciones que me hacen sentir que piso sobre tierra firme, aunque muy probablemente pude haber logrado más si me arriesgaba más, va contra mí, porque necesito seguridad y estabilidad en mi vida.

Lo que he estado haciendo es asumir desafíos más pequeños que normalmente no tomaría, pienso que de esta manera podré ir avanzando escalón por escalón, hacia perder el miedo a fracasar.

Además leo y escucho todo lo que pueda ayudarme a aumentar la confianza en mí, lo que sí no hago es conformarme con lo que no me satisface, siempre encuentro la forma de avanzar.

2️⃣ Do you have a negative thought about yourself? What is it, and are you doing something to reframe that and adopt a more positive outlook?

The most recurrent negative thought about myself is that of not being enough and failing.

For example, recently my husband told me about the opportunity of a job in another company, with a better salary; however, that scenario fills me with doubts, because I think that nowadays there is a lot of competition and as I have always worked in the same management, I don't know if I am ready to start again in another place. Besides, I am already 51 years old, age also seems to me to be a limiting aspect.

I think there are decisions that cannot be taken lightly, I have always chosen the options that make me feel that I am standing on solid ground, although I could have probably achieved more if I took more risks, it goes against me, because I need security and stability in my life.

What I have been doing is taking on smaller challenges that I would not normally take on, I think this way I will be able to move step by step towards losing the fear of failure.

I also read and listen to everything that can help me to increase my self-confidence, what I do not do is to settle for what does not satisfy me, I always find a way to move forward.



3️⃣ La gratitud o el agradecimiento ayudan a mejorar nuestro bienestar general. ¿Practicas un enfoque de «vida agradecida»? Si es así, ¿qué es lo que más agradeces hoy?

Sí, el agradecimiento forma parte de mi día a día, creo que gracias a eso recibo tantas bendiciones en mi vida, que no ha sido fácil, pero nunca me sentido sola, porque siempre, de alguna manera, llega a mí lo que necesito.

Lo que más agradezco es la gracia de tener los hijos que tengo, son lo más valioso en mi vida y que ellos estén bien, es mi mayor recompensa. Ellos hacen que todo valga el esfuerzo y que mi existencia tenga sentido.

Por otra parte, lo que más agradezco del día de hoy, es poder estar en casa tranquila con mis amores, que ellos estén sanos y que nuestras necesidades estén cubiertas.

Poder respirar y dormir bien, es algo que también siempre agradezco, porque sé lo difícil que es tener dificultad para hacerlo.

Son tantos los motivos que encuentro cada día para agradecer, que me sería difícil terminar de enumerarlos.

3️⃣ Gratitude or gratefulness helps boost our overall well-being. Do you practice a "grateful living" approach? If you do, what are you most thankful for today?

Yes, thankfulness is part of my daily life, I believe that thanks to that I receive so many blessings in my life, which has not been easy, but I never feel alone, because somehow what I need always comes to me.

What I am most grateful for is the grace of having the children I have, they are the most valuable thing in my life and that they are well, is my greatest reward. They make everything worth the effort and make my existence meaningful.

On the other hand, what I am most thankful for today is to be able to be at home with my loved ones, that they are healthy and that our needs are covered.

Being able to breathe and sleep well is something I am also always grateful for, because I know how hard it is to have difficulty doing so.

There are so many reasons I find every day to be thankful that it would be difficult for me to finish listing them.

Sort:  

Cuando uno reconoce donde está la falla puede trabajar en ella y tú lo estás haciendo, no aceptaste una propuesta de trabajo que te recomendó tu esposo donde ganarías más dinero, por el temor a no quedar y te quedaste en donde te sientes con los pies en tierra, pero te estás poniendo pequeños retos para superar esa desconfianza que te tienes.

Gracias a Dios tienes mucho motivos para agradecer, y lo haces y por eso seguirás teniendo muchos más que agradecer, ya que el agradecimiento es un imán que te da más motivos para seguir agradeciendo. Dios bendiga tu linda familia y suerte en el concurso 🙏🏼

...ya que el agradecimiento es un imán que te da más motivos para seguir agradeciendo

Exactamente amiga, siempre hay que agradecer, es mucho más productivo que vivir en la queja, que sólo atrae más motivos para quejarnos.

En la vida siempre me he guiado por mi instinto, hay decisiones que no son fáciles, más cuando tienes miedo de perder la seguridad que te da lo que tienes. Poco a poco iré probando mis límites, a ver a dónde me llevan.

Saludos, gracias por tu spalabras.

Your responses are thoughtful and shows how much you care about your family. I admire your strength. About the job, if you want to take it up, then you should. Don’t think too much of your age, you’re still beautiful and strong.
Have a blessed week 🌸

Aww, thank you for your words 🤗.
At the moment I'm fine where I am, although it may be an option in the future, besides, I have other plans that are still being managed, at the moment I don't know what fate has in store for me, what is for sure is that I will move some pieces in the game of my life.
Greetings.

It's not always easy to make decisions when our family is involved. No one wants to be away for so long, even in today's technology that connects us. Your children have grown up, but they still need you, just like we needed our Moms, even when we are already adults.

Having security and stability gives us peace of mind, so I understand your hesitation when it comes to taking risks. Glad you are taking steps to become more confident. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences. !LADY

That's right, having more money is not so attractive to me, when my children are involved, it's not an easy decision at all, because money doesn't really make up for my time with them. My dream job is a very tempting offer, but I don't know if I could leave and leave them for two years, even though part of me would like to reach that goal.... Quite a dilemma, but now that I think about it a bit more, I don't think it's worth it.
I had a very difficult childhood, maybe that's why I don't like to take risks where my economic security and stability are at stake.
It was a pleasure to participate in this initiative.
Best regards.

Being with your loved ones is something to be grateful for. Sometimes, we limit ourselves because of age or other factors but the truth is to do what we feel is better and won't affect other areas of our lives.

Whenever possible, the best thing to do is to be close to our loved ones and when we have children, I consider that we have the duty to take care of them, protect them and show them love, they are fragile and the world is very difficult.
Greetings.

I am now in your previous situation and won't hesitate so say No too.

My son is still in the fragile stage so I know the feeling

I also understand you, I think that when we decide to be parents, our children should be the priority, when they are small, our priority is to protect them, it is useless to have money and they are not happy or grow up with lack of affection.
Greetings.
