@Walkieman

Hey, Pedro !   Thank you for accepting to do this interview to the @Walkieman blog.  I want to start by saying that we have met before in a futsal team where Pedro was the trainer. He also coached student association of the Faculty of Science and Technology (AEFCT) a university feminine (won 3º place in University league) and masculine team where he was a student. So, how are you doing? First, thank you for the invite! It is an honour giving this interview, and also is the first one! @Walkieman is about mental health and to have tools for developing yourself. Do you think sports can help people with mental health issues? Can it help with our confidence? Yes, of course! Not only people that are coping with that kind of situation, but for everyone! Sports, or physical activity, have multiple benefits, not just for the physical aspect but for the psychological and emotional aspect too! And speaking especially on team sports, it’s very important because it in...

Robin Sharma is a Canadian writer and motivational speaker. He was a lawyer, but he realized that it was not his life calling, therefore he has departed to an adventure related with personal development and soul searching. The history how he published his first book “The monk who sold his Ferrari” is incredible and it reminds me of J.K.Rowling. The creator of Harry Potter had tried 12 times to approach Publishers to release her book although, the companies had turned her down. However, by not giving up she was able ending up finding someone to help her to publish it. In case of Robin Sharma, he tried as well to speak with several companies that declined to publish his book because they did not believe on the content of it. So, his first edition was made on his mom’s shop and it was sold to people door to door.  He told that on his first seminar about the book only some friends and family appeared. Notwithstanding, by not giving up, the book “Monk Who Sold ...

What the best part of your childhood was? Majority of you would give me incredible answers – all valid and unique! When I was little, playing with my toys was the most amusing part of that days. I could create a such an amazing universe for the figures to live, I could turn my garden into a country, a puddle into a lake, a ball into a planet, a bunch of flowers into a forest, a bit of sand into a desert… There was no limit for my ideas and for what I could conceive. The dreams are born when we are children - Mine was the desire to become an artist. I started painting, drawing, writing and creating stuff with different materials. It was certainly ways to express how I felt and let my soul transmit my propose in life, my true being. I believe on that time that I could be big! Although, that was lost through time! Getting old really sucks! Especially because we forgot how to enjoy life, to live by what we believe and follow our dreams. And why is that? We...

Human Rights are the rights that you simply have because you are Human and there are 30 articles on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Watch the video about the history of Human Rights: It is important to say that this declaration was conceived with the evolution of mentality around the globe and by the initiative of people that started to see the world in a different way. Although, there are still violations of this declaration nowadays: racism, discrimination, xenophobia, unfair labor practices, slavery, psychological and physical violence... The question is how we can made the difference, in a society that people do not want to change their paradigms? It starts within you. Analyzing yourself,checking your words and actions.

Moreover, sharing the message that people do not have t...

Firstly I want to thank CANDLES Holocaust Museum and Education Center for this interview. I have tried to contact the organization to try to reach Eva Mozes Kor, but I was really sad to hear that she has passed away. Eva was a Jew survivor from Auschwitz, a concentration camp, where the Nazis were killing people from different minorities and Jews, in World War II . Listen to Eva’s history on this youtube video, “Talks at Google”: Interview to CANDLES Can you tell me a bit about CANDLES? What is the mission and what do you do? In 1995, Eva Mozes Kor opened the CANDLES Holocaust Museum and Education Center in Terre Haute, with a mission to prevent prejudice and hatred through education about the Holocaust. Thousands of people, including many school groups, have visited CANDLES since it opened. In 2003, the museum was destroyed by a hate-filled arsonist. Eva vowed to rebuild, and with the help of a generous public outpouring of support, the museum was rebuilt and ...

Never give up the success can be on the right side of the corner. The example of that was Thomas Edison. Thomas Edison (19, known as the "Wizard of Menlo Park", was an American inventor, scientist and businessman. He played a leading role in the technological revolution of the 20th century. One of his main inventions was the creation of the incandescent electric lamp. Thomas Edison failed more 1000 times before successfully inventing the prototype of the light bulb. And certainly 1000 more times to build his the phonograph, the motion picture camera and other inventions. So imagine, if he had give up, on the first time, there was no electric lamp. By never giving up we can achieve greater things. It is alright to fail. Fail is just the jump for the success. Of course it can be frustrating and disappointing sometimes, but see as a challenge and a personal devolopement. If you give up now, you will never know the greatness of winning big! “Our bigge...
