Mi Diario Actifit: 30 agosto 2023 // My Actifit Report Card: August 30 2023

Hola, querido hiver.

Esta mañana nos han despertado los jardineros municipales, que andan limpiando las malas hierbas y cortando el césped de las zonas verdes cercanas a mi casa. Hay que ver lo rápido que crecen, no me parece que haya pasado tanto tiempo desde la última vez. Ahora da gusto ver la calle, que acompañado por la temperatura agradable anima a salir afuera.

El coche nos ha dado un pequeño susto que se ha solucionado cambiando un manguito. Cuando no es una cosa es otra, prácticamente todos los meses reclama su atención con un consabido gasto extra, aun siendo un vehículo que ha estado bien cuidado y usado. Para él también pasan los años y los materiales se desgastan o se vuelven inservibles. Lo vamos aguantando hasta que se produzca una avería que no merezca la pena reparar. Mientras tanto, como tantos otros, seguimos alargándole la vida para evitar un desembolso mayor.

Cita estoica del día

En efecto, cualquiera señalaría como rasgo característico de la necedad el realizar sus obras con indolencia a la par que rebeldía, y empujar el cuerpo en un sentido y el alma en otro distinto, viéndose solicitada por estímulos muy opuestos.

Séneca.

Mi reflexión

Ay, qué necia he sido si me atengo a estas palabras de Séneca. Pasé años haciendo lo contrario de mis deseos solo por no enfrentarme a los demás y no decepcionarles. Cuánto tiempo perdido y cuánto sufrimiento vivido que ya no puedo recuperar.

Pero, como siempre escribo, de nada me servirán los lamentos ni los arrepentimientos. Por eso miro hacia adelante con valentía y con la conciencia de que asumiré lo que venga y que no pueda controlar, pero ya no me doblegará lo que sí esté bajo mi dominio y capacidad. Mi largo trabajo en la autoestima me permite ahora diferenciar lo que es un favor de un chantaje emocional. Y, aún cayendo de vez en cuando en la trampa, me siento con todo el derecho a cambiar de opinión y conducta porque soy un ser independiente y libre.

En esta ardua tarea ayuda mi tendencia hacia la simplicidad, el preferir calidad antes que cantidad por lo que supone de ahorro en el medio y largo plazo. La consecuencia directa es menos gasto de energía y tiempo y más bienestar.

Como todo el mundo, algunos días la pereza amenaza esa tranquilidad y me invita a posponer las obligaciones con la excusa de que mañana es otro día. Mi forma de combatirla es comenzar la tarea y el resultado es que me cuesta hacerla mucho menos de lo que la imaginación esperaba. Y, de postre, cuando la acabo obtengo una alegría extra que suma puntos a mi autoestima por el deber cumplido y mi sentimiento de utilidad para el mundo. Diferenciar qué es obligatorio de veras y qué no lo es constituye la clave y la diferencia entre sentirse oprimido o liberado. Elegí la libertad.

Bitácora del día

Por la mañana: compras y labores domésticas, curación de contenidos, escritura.

Por la tarde: curación de contenidos, tareas variadas de Hive, asistencia a evento en el Discord de Ecency, paseo con el perrito.

Hi, dear hiver.

This morning we were woken up by the municipal gardeners, who are clearing the weeds and cutting the grass in the green areas near my house. It's amazing how fast they are growing, it doesn't seem so long since the last time. Now it's nice to see the street, which, together with the pleasant temperature, encourages you to go outside.

The car gave us a little scare which was solved by changing a hose. When it's not one thing it's another, practically every month it demands attention with a customary extra cost, even though it's a vehicle that has been well looked after and used. The years go by and materials wear out or become unusable. We put up with it until a breakdown occurs that is not worth repairing. In the meantime, like so many others, we continue to extend its life in order to avoid a major expense.

Stoic quote of the day

Indeed, anyone would point out as a characteristic feature of foolishness the fact that it performs its works with indolence as well as rebelliousness, and pushes the body in one direction and the soul in another, being solicited by very opposite stimuli.

Seneca.

My reflection

Oh, how foolish I have been if I stick to these words of Seneca. I spent years doing the opposite of what I wanted to do just because I didn't want to face others and disappoint them. How much time I have wasted and how much suffering I have lived through that I can no longer make up for.

But, as I always write, regrets and regrets will be of no use to me. That is why I look ahead with courage and with the awareness that I will take on whatever comes that I cannot control, but I will no longer bend to what is under my control and capacity. My long work on self-esteem now allows me to differentiate between what is a favour and what is emotional blackmail. And, even if I fall into the trap from time to time, I feel I have every right to change my mind and behaviour because I am an independent and free being.

In this arduous task, my tendency towards simplicity, preferring quality over quantity, helps me to save money in the medium and long term. The direct consequence is less expenditure of energy and time and more well-being.

Like everyone else, some days laziness threatens this peace of mind and invites me to postpone obligations with the excuse that tomorrow is another day. My way of fighting it is to start the task and the result is that it takes me much less time to do it than I had imagined. And, for dessert, when I finish it I get an extra joy that adds points to my self-esteem for the duty accomplished and my feeling of usefulness to the world. Differentiating what is truly obligatory and what is not is the key and the difference between feeling oppressed or liberated. I chose freedom.

Can certainly relate with regards to ongoing repairs. As fast as I try and mend one, something else needs sorting out. It does get to a point though, when you reckon that not much more can be done to prolong the life of something.

Glad your car was sorted, as that's certainly a scary one for sure. My next maintenance task is my hair haha.. Blonde box hair bleach/dye it is looool.

Yes, it seems that we have the car at the moment. 🚘
Ugh, I stopped dyeing my hair... I don't even remember when! Only saving time is worth it. 😁
Lately we recycle as much as possible.
Thank you for your support! 🤗
