good afternoon
I thought this was a serious event
how are you, no, I’m not gone
all right
How are you?
[Applause]
indeed I was a serious uncle was
an uncle who was dedicated to the world the eu
I can not remove anyone in my case
there is a big difference unfortunately but
I’ll still try to do it without
nose
I do not want to be me and an uncle that
theoretically he was reasonably successful
in the professional field that works in
Chile here in the best time of
Hitler to work in Santander in
the best time to expand the
santander
then in inditex in that wonderful
expansion also of the inditex group
theoretically I was that staff or that
kind of people that is admired by
some and that many may envy and
that theoretically has achieved its
non-professional dreams that is paid
among the best in Spain that has
come to have a development
very important professional but at
better that person who was the one who was me
he did not realize where he was just
was doing towards act ago act
he acted worked and he does not realize
a lot of what I did
so much so that in fact I am the
only manager who has worked
directly for the two presidents of
the two largest companies in Spain
ana patricia loot and amancio ortega
showy and are a little scary but that
it is between us
but nevertheless one day the thing changed
the thing changed executive with tie and
and a little ruthless and he worked 16
hours a day and that practically not
had a vacation and turned into another
thing became one in that thing
that there are and for those who have
doubts I am the middle one
It’s hard to recognize but a person who
start doing things that exactly
it consists of doing what one wants in
every moment and what is more important
regardless trial that is
I started doing theater to do clown
that’s why I borrowed the flat from
clown
I started to develop a life that did not
had nothing to do with the previous one is
say I retired when I was 41
to move from that executive
serious professional with a very mask
very big to this clown that you see here
there was one thing in between the thing between
means is that one day
I grabbed a backpack I grabbed my wife
hand and we both went to
travel the world for a year
I decided to park the world of the great
company has decided to park the world
professional
just as my life had been and I dedicated
one year of my life
just to travel I just knew
where was he going to sleep
the first night he was in nairobi in
Kenya the rest of the days
we had no idea where we were going to
sleep we did not know that we were going to
devise the future and we were simply
vagabonds traveling the world
anyway when I took the
decision to leave the world to the great
company a decision
theoretically being on top of my
career
I still is not quite sure how
was going to be my future I still had
uncertainties I wanted to leave the world of
the big company but I did not know what was going
to be of my future
so I took
a little wink to myself and in
backpack
I put a tie put it in the background
the backpack and I said this is the world of
where I come
I do not know if it’s going to be the world where I’m going to
come again when this year ends
but just in case so I was
remember where I come from and not betray
my same miami in that backpack I will have
that tie and you have good
that change so big because you were
burned is because you were completely
darkened really was not everything
otherwise I made that decision
because among other things one day I read
a phrase that struck me
the phrase was this life is what
Short enough to live it
just one way and I said good if
I still have energy if I still
I really want to do things and
I still really want to fulfill
dreams even though they are not yet
are they what are
we are going to recharge batteries we are going to make
this trip you will say what you learned
during this trip
first of all the first thing that
I learned on the trip is that everything
absolutely everything in life fits you in
a backpack
everything is more we realized
during this year of travel we started
the trip with many more things from the
that we finish you realize the length of
a year of traveling in the world that
really what we have in the back
almost never need to really
with two or three shirts we can live
with two or three themes of a toiletry case
you can live with a pair of shorts with
Some sandals
you do not need many things when you do
a trip of this kind what you give yourself
account is that simplifying is one of the
greatest wise steps we can take
in this world and you realize when
you really realize that no
you need TVs you do not need
large electronic equipment no
you need to dress the fashion you do not need
absolutely nothing
all your happiness
in what he was carrying in a backpack and in the
skin of the person you want to the side
does not need much more
you realize that it really is not
needed almost nothing of what we have in
our life that here we spend almost all
our life working as blacks for
buy things that we do not need and that
they do not make us happy because really what
that make us happy in this life are
other things that we do not realize
they are make us happy until the
we lose second in second
place of the things we learned from the
thing that I learned that when you want
learn something
The first thing you have to do is
learn that normally what we have
in the head what we have in our
consciousness what we have in our
habits are things that we have learned and
that we do not realize its value
until we really realize
that we do not need it
especially in this one has in these
times that we are living now in
this world in which we are seeing
now where anything we have
learned five minutes ago is not worth it
because now technology is not
changing everything to really learn
the things that are important in life
to really learn the things that
they come to have sensitivity towards
future and not to the past
what we have to do first is
erase moral principles that do not
we need because the really
important
we know what are practical
customs ways of doing things if
We really want to learn to change if
we really want to learn to be a
different thing a different person
The first thing we have to do is
unlearning is to erase things not
we need 90% of the things that
we know
We are sincerely obsessed in
accumulate knowledge we are
obsessed with accumulating things that
they really do not serve absolutely for
nothing
in this sense internet for example
what so many advantages has brought us
it also brings us many inconveniences
We spend a lot of time we spend a lot
energy we are many
well in acquiring knowledge and
acquire things that are not important
there is a thing called facebook no
practically what we learn in
facebook are vaporous knowledge so
soon they arrive as they leave they do not leave
absolutely nothing and yet there
we spend so much time that it’s the only thing
which is together with the people around us
what is important in life we buy and
we sell things
we buy and sell knowledge
we buy and sell almost everything except the
time and time really almost what
only important
I for example when I decided to change
life is fundamentally because I arrived
to the personal conviction that no
I wanted to do the same thing all my life for
one day when he had 65 years if
I was going to receive an illusionary pension from me
we’re not going to have pensions just me what
I’m basically telling the guys
young people who are here
forget that you are going to have pensions
not forgotten
no one is fool parenthesis
when I got up one day having
turned 65 years old I would have realized
that really clouds had not done
the things that I wanted to do not
had been able to get to start up
those projects that really
I wanted my projects but others
time is what counts is the weather
that really gives meaning to life as
we fill it or how we waste it is
our decision is your decision is your
decision
is my decision everything else comes and
it goes away and the last thing I gave myself
account
it’s something we all know published
here all the people that we
we dedicate to give lectures we talk about
obvious things that we all know and that is
Fear is not necessary
it’s more if we come to the conclusion
real of the things that we have
fear we realize that 90% of
the things we are afraid of
they do not really exist and yet they are
it is fear that governs our
lives
I do not go around the world because if I do not
What will I do when I return not let
to the person that I have now because what
would happen if he does not find another person and
It is fear that gives us what is going
sinking what will be asking us
do the things that we really want
those are the four things that we gave ourselves
account and from there on some
way I thought that life is like a
balloon trip
always talk about the trip that is the
life not for me the most realistic
talk about life as a balloon trip
why because the wolf unlike
the cars or unlike the motorcycles
of the bicycles there are no flyers there
life leads us and bring us many
Sometimes it’s like the wind for the wolves
there’s no rudder in the balloons anymore or
the less you can control where they are going
the winds but nobody knows exactly
where that wind is going
What is certain is that all
human beings we have that inclination
almost natural to fly to feel
inspired and inspire really
achieve goals that are important has
really feel the freedom in your
full expression
that’s flying so I say that sometimes
life is like the wolf and also the
life as the wolf in the sense that
there are things that raise the fuel and
there are things that stick to the ground that
is the weights that wolves have
really when we do not fly when the
weight of that of the land that
we carry in the balloons does not let us
raise us normally that weight are
eating are in the form of fears
fears that on the other hand not even
are our many times fears that
they have usually been inherited
you know that for example in the case of
spider phobia know where it comes from
the phobia of spiders
is inherited from mothers to daughters
it is also usually from mothers to daughters
not from parents to children for example they are
inherited you know someone who has
had a problem with a serious spider
someone who has a hospital
does not that happen in Australia that there is some
poisonous here in Spain that make a
great milestone like a mosquito and even not
nothing happens and yet we have a phobia
Spiders are afraid of spiders
We are full of fears while
let’s have those fears, we will not be able to
fly but we do have fuels
if we have springs that are going to
allow to fly and care are springs
that will allow us to fly both in the
world of personnel as in the world of
company
in the food we talk about the impact that
they will have the new type technologies
robotics and artificial intelligence type
in the next years
this year, 16 million will disappear
of jobs around the world
for the impact of robotics and
artificial intelligence you talk about that
according to a report from McKinsey
today 55 percent of the
jobs in united states
could be dispensable today by the
impact of robotics and
artificial intelligence
that means that maybe today is not
possible unless they are all engaged
the gringos make the wall at the border
that what is gained on the one hand is lost
for another
look what it can mean in the world
when all these jobs
be dispensable
Well, the only thing that can save us
is creativity and creativity is a
bird that are poorly cared for in captivity
very poorly in captivity much you
send people to be creative as
borges said there are verbs that pass
bad in imperative like loving for a lot
that you tell someone you have to love
someone not if it is or does not come from the heart
it is impossible
creativity is the same as much as
try
get people to be creative do not
will get and yet the
creativity is what is going to allow us
be better and better both our
jobs like in our lives
personal to be creative
we have to find texts
adequate
the more free the better the more
crazy better the more provocative
the better the more crazy the better the
creativity comes as we have heard
a while when there are people who find
the right context and challenges that context
then creativity becomes
one of the engines of our balloon but
I also do not know if you know
Chavos is one of the most
reputed right now in the united states
a one company that sells started
selling shoes online that was born in
las vegas and that now sells all kinds of
through internet articles as
rags what he does is precisely
recognize differences through
the centric ones and gives one of his
cultural principles says that you have to
be a little weird
if this what everyone wants if
we do not want to be normal if we want
go up
naturally of that normality if the
normality does not scare us
then why are we censoring
We are continuously the ones who
we censor happiness if it exists
is really about being comfortable
with ourselves
regardless of what the others
think of us we are we are we
creative we are different and for
last and I think it’s something that everyone
we recognize
I believe that happiness consists not in
He expects others to give us the
happiness we are used to asking
continuously they do not know that we
They want us to recognize that they give us
pensions that give us roads that we
give money that give us nothing and also
increasingly
we do not think that maybe
happiness is at the opposite pole in
give us because we do not why not
wait for them to give us
we do not go we first help what
better there is the secret
in my case I found through
an application of an organization
called social phillips which is a
application that what it does is try
that people get their dreams to
through the help of other people
people helping people get
your dreams is what makes me happy
what makes me happy is not what I
I manage to increase neither current account
what makes me happy is really
try to make people fulfill their dreams
is what I can take to the other neighborhood
and speaking of another neighborhood I present to you
bastard like a nurse
Australian who became famous because
wrote a book based on the
conversations he had with elders who
they were in their last hours of life in
his last days of life because he was already
an illness in the department of
palliative care in a hospital
she came to the conclusion that
although there was a lot of variety about
what will be the last
remorse of the elderly before
die there were five points that
they were practically common
you know what was the most common point
of all what was the greatest remorse
that people who are
point of dying and that therefore
Maybe it’s the last moment of
sincerity in his life I had to
to have attributed I had to have
attributed life
we live it as if it were a game that
have a second leg
we saw it as a league that has many
matches
life is a final there is only one
party there are only 90 minutes
it depends on us that there is no
remorse and that we are not in the
place of those old people who had but
same its in your book
nothing else
If I dared to wear a nose
clown
I also think that everyone here
all of us here we could
have only a second of reflection
tomorrow and say what we could do
our life so that the day we do not
let’s die we’ll find
sorry a little less
thank you very much to the press
[Applause]
