Failing is evident?! Es evidente fallar?!

If you’ve never failed…you’ve never tried anything new. I love this quote and underlying message. In this picture we see 6 failures! Yes- the 6 very successful failures, changed their failures around, beat the odds and rose like the Phoenix from the ashes to fulfill their own life destiny. So when I tell people “it’s ok to fail”, they look at me like I’ve gone mad…but it’s true. In the dark night of the soul, we encounter darkness, doubt and even question the pursuit of that dream, and sometimes that’s the breaking point of giving up or continue despite the challenges. In truth- our tears make us humble and cleanses our spirit. What comes after is a matter of choice- give up or continue? I choose the latter…why? Because anyone whose ever done anything great in history failed many many times, and thank God they continued. Would would have happen if the didn’t? Imagine a world without Einstein, Jordan, Oprah, Steve Jobs, Disney and the Beatles? Imagine the void of these different people in the area of basketball, science, music, technology, entertainment and imagination?

So fail, and fail again…rise above it, and fail again, keep trying, keep making mistakes, try new things, and fail, challenge yourself, until you turn your failures into realities. These failures, the journey will shape you and in the end will make you a better, stronger and more resilient human being, an example to others, that’s it’s ok to fail, the trick is to keep going, keep moving forward..without action we get farther away from our desires. If you don’t, you will never know the great void you will cause this world, if you decide not to try.

Love and light,

Si nunca has fallado, nunca has intentado nada nuevo. Me encanta esta cita y el mensaje a fondo. En esta foto vemos 6 fracasos! Si- 6 muy exitosos fracasos, cambiaron sus fracasos, batieron las probabilidades, y ascendieron como el fénix de las cenizas, para cumplir su propio destino. Por ello cuando digo a las personas “es bueno fallar”, me miran como si me hubiera vuelto loca, pero es la verdad. En la noche oscura del alma, encontraremos oscuridad, duda y cuestionaremos la búsqueda de nuestros sueños. Ese es el punto de ruptura, rendirse o continuar a pesar del reto. En verdad- son las lágrimas que renuevan el espirito y nos hacen humildes. Lo que viene después es una elección personal- darte por vencido o continuar? Yo escojo la última opción…Porque? Porque cualquier persona que hizo algo en la historia falló muchas muchas veces y gracias a Dios que decidieron continuar. Imaginemos un mundo sin Einstein, Jordan, Oprah, Steve Jobs, Disney y los Beatles? Imagínate el gran vacío de estas diferentes personas en el área de basketball, ciencia, música, tecnología, entretenimiento e imaginación? Así que falla, y vuelve a fallar, levántate de nuevo, sigue intentando, sigue haciendo errores, intenta nuevos cosas y nuevos retos, hasta que conviertas tus fracasos en realidad. Estos fracasos, el andar en el camino, te formará, y al final te hará en una mejor persona con más fortaleza y resistencia, un ejemplo a los demos, mostrando qué es bueno fallar, lo importante es continuar adelante, ya que sin acción, nos alejaremos más de nuestros deseos. Será difícil, pero si no lo haces, nunca sabrás el gran vacío que existirá en el mundo, si decides no intentarlo.

Amor y luz,

You are MAGICAL! Eres MÁGICO!

Hello my beauties!

Today I wanted to post this message and remind you that you are MAGICAL! You are so much more powerful than you realize and give yourself credit for. If you just ponder a moment on your life and assess all that you’ve been through, and no matter who you are, you have lived through one or many challenges, as no one goes through this life problem-free. Although most would agree we want less problems and challenges- but what I will stress is that those undesired challenges are what makes us learn, especially when we rise above them, we come out much stronger and we get to know ourselves a little better and we know what course to steer from and which course to follow. When we find ourselves in darkness, we feel we have no power, no magic, but all we need is a a little bit of light, a mere spark that can rekindle our soul and purpose. Especially in these times we need to know, feel and be Magic! You don’t need a magic wand to create it, all you truly need is to honor who you are and believe in your powers. No one is quite like you, never has been and never will be- you are unique and original and this is your source of magic! Don’t forget who you are in the process of life, honor it, celebrate it, believe it, and bring forth your creative force into existence – be Magical and you will make anything happen!

Love and light always,

Mariela

Eres Mágico!

Hola mis bellezas,

Hoy quería enviar este mensaje para recordarte que eres mágico!! Eres mucho más fuerte de lo que piensas o crees. Si contemplas un momento en tu vida y en lo que has sobrepasado, y no importa quien seas, todos hemos tenido uno o varios retos o problemas, ya que nadie pasa por esta vida sin ellos. A pesar de que todos queremos menos problemas, es importante recalcar que son los retos y problemas no deseados, los que nos hace crecer, especialmente cuando ascendemos de ellos, salimos más fuertes y nos llegamos a conocer un poco más a fondo, y reconocemos de cuál camino debemos alejarnos y en cuál debemos andar.

Cuando nos encontramos en la oscuridad, no nos sentimos poderosos, ni mágicos, pero lo único que necesitamos es un poco de luz, una sola chispa que pueda reavivar nuestra alma y propósito. Especialmente en estos momentos debemos saber, sentir, creer, y ser magia! No necesitamos una varita mágica, para crearla, lo único que necesitamos es honrar quien somos por dentro, y creer en nuestros poderes. Nadie es exactamente como tú, nadie lo ha sido, ni lo será- tu eres único y original y esa es la fuente de tu magia! No olvides quien eres en el proceso de la vida, hónralo, celébralo, créelo y vívelo- brinda a la luz tu poder creativo y vívelo en tu existencia- se mágico y podrás hacer todo lo que deseas!

Amor y luz por siempre,

Mariela

Listen to the night…as the night knows your truths

Hello my beauties! I loved this quote by Victoria Erickson- which speaks to my soul! These words ring true, since at night after we contemplate our day- the chaos of it- work, school, sports, family, friends..,whatever it is that occupies your day, we submerge into our thoughts and it is then when our soul wonders, and resurfaces our deepest desires, our dreams, goals, wishes and heartfelt dreams. During this time is when we ponder on our forgotten hopes, wishes and dreams, on all those things that make our hearts beat just a little faster.

So my advise to you is when you awake, you bring from the night all those dreams into light and make them part of your waking day- not in dreams- but in present reality! Live your passion, set your goals, wish fiercely, work harder and believe in the power of your dreams. Do not let them die, nor burry into the night..,live them each day-as only you knows what it feels to have that burning fire ignite your heart and mind.

So follow your heart, and know that there is no dream that cannot come true- if the dream never ends.

Love and light,

Mariela

In letting go…you recieve 

Letting go is the hardest thing to endure. Why? Because we like safety, because we are comfortable and because we are afraid.          Fear. This four letter word will prevent us from following our true hearts desires, follow our passion, hopes and dreams. But when we realize the power of release- of letting go- we let things flow, there is no more resistance to what needs to come, to be, or exist. What comes thereafter? Your true path. The true you comes alive.  The surrender will pave the way to self-discovery. I will not sugarcoat the process, as one must endure much darkness before seeing the light. You must endure the dark night of the soul, but in the end of this process of striping down to your very core, you will live the magic of life and all that you are destined to experience will finally find you. 

Release…and thus, recieve!

Love and light!

Mariela

Don’t follow the crowds, go your own way

I positively LOVE this quote: “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail”.
–Ralph Waldo Emerson
Who doesn’t love Emerson! He was so right with this quote. I know that fear many times prevent us from doing our own thing, and instead we end up following the masses to try and fit into a mold that will never be contorted to fit us.
Don’t be afraid to be you and to be different! Because only you can bring forth a creation so magical that only you could have created such a unique reality. Whether you want to be an actor(ress), writer, dancer, musician, doctor, astronaut, soccer agent, or soccer player. Only you know what it is to dream your dream, so don’t let them be only that- a dream- go forth and make them into reality! Whatever your heart desires is the beginning of creation.
So create a magical reality and don’t follow the crowd, instead go on your own path and see what wonders you can create- when you follow your heart and do your own thing.
