🇬🇧 The values we nurture

I started working when I was 5, helping my grandmother in my aunts’s store. I wasn’t paid during 12 years or more. Then I started receiving one minimum salary. This salary, small as it was, I spent buying high end clothing because I wanted to create my own style (up to that moment my family used to choose my clothing and I had no voice for this). But this had consequences in the way I built my core of values too.

I decided there to treasure original design. Then I learned to value high quality. And finally, years later, I noticed the link between to value good products instead of cheap ones and to value myself as a human being and a professional. If I really value myself I value other people who believe in continuous improvement as myself, and in businesses encouraging this instead of those worried only about cutting costs.

Real status is on having this ability to learn from each single experience and from observation of the world around us in a way we can strengthen our self esteem and offer to ourselves the best we can afford, and continuously develop the ability to afford better experiences through our work.

Cheap things hardly can fit to these standards. But not all expensive products and services are ready to fit.

To become a nomad is helpful to open our minds and make us freer from the cultural, religious and familiar values we learn from childhood. To discover new possibilities and to experience lots of new things. Not to be attached to a place can help us to cure the wounds in our souls and learn to value what deserves to be valued, what offers real value.

My intention here is to give tips about those who deserve our attention for positive reasons. Follow the blog to discover more.
