THE SECRET…

It was really amazing when I read The Secret… Well I have to be sincere… I´ve read it twice… It´s great! My life had a 180 degree change… The moment I read I started to be more conscious about my mind faculties. A friend of mine gave the book in a very difficult moment of my life because I was suffering some complicated problems.
This book made a new way to face life, now I´m more positive, mature, enthusiastic and relaxed person because I try to do my best with no stress and fear. A relevant fact is when I stopped thinking about problems and regretting about last decisions that I made.

One of the first good news I received since I read was that my health was fine because a couple of months before I had a problem in my stomach which produced some difficulties in my life.

After that, I´ve received lots of good news, for instances I started an English course at INA, I got a job at P&G, I received a scholarship at ULACIT to study publicity, I began TCU at UCR (it was so difficult to get) and my family started to be more united and I started a relationship with my girlfriend. And also my family members received some very important news, for example my brother got an excellent job, he started a major in the university, my mother´s retirement request was approved and my father improved his health.

I recommend to read it, I´ve lend this book to three very important people that I really appreciate and they´ve had very important changes first they´ve improved their life, financial situation and also sentimental relationships.
It´s essential to recognize that the book is not the secret, so the secret is in you, everybody has the possibility to achieve his/her goals, but it basically depends on the dedication, passion and faith to get it.

Honesty

To lie as a noun is known as: a false statement made with deliberate intent to deceive; an intentional untruth; a falsehood, and as a verb like: to speak falsely or utter untruth knowingly, as with intent to deceive.

I think politicians are incapable of telling the truth. For example last week our “diputados” got caught in their lies. It seems to be incredible that “diputados” where elected two months ago by a majority of ticos and they swore to serve to poor people, be interested on our problems and try to make us live better than last years but it wasn´t true.

Actually “diputados” pretend to get an incredible salary increase over 100%, I mean now they earn 2.3 million colones and they want to get more than 4 millions colones. It´s important to say that a lie sometimes is totally different to omit some information but in this case it was obvious that during the electoral campaign none was suppose to say: “the first weak when we arrive to The Legisture Assembly we expect to approve our own salary increase”.
A lie is an action, a word or a gesture that very quickly will have consequences. People have to be sure that when they lie the truth will probably be known. It´s important to emphasize that is not suggested to tell a lie but sometimes it´s necessary because important events will depend on them.

Addictions

Sexual addiction

This term refers to the phenomenon in which individuals report being unable to manage their sexual behavior. Its three principal symptoms are:
• Persistent desire or unsuccessful efforts to stop, reduce, or control those behaviors
• Inordinate amount of time spent in obtaining sex, being sexual, or recovering from sexual experience
• Need to increase the intensity, frequency, number, or risk of behaviors to achieve the desired effect, or diminished effect with continued behaviors at the same level of intensity, frequency, number, or risk

This behavior often leads to the sexual abuse of an addict's coworkers, friends or sexual partners. It can make an addict to feel isolated, depressed and also will induce to commit suicide. Sexual addicts and their partners are at risk of contracting HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases.

An example of a Sexual Addict is the professional golf player Tiger Woods, his behavior was discovered last year since he and his wife had a car accident. Mr. Woods suffered a lot problems by that behavior, 15 women claimed to be his lovers, its career as golf player was in troubles because he stopped being an example for young people. His sponsor decided to stop or decrease their support. A couple of months later he started a sexual therapy in order to recover his life balanced.

In summary, sexual addiction must be treated by professional therapists and counselors and also this problem will be corrected in self-help groups like Sex Addicts Anonymous, and Sexaholics Anonymous for instance.
