Beyond Everest

Climbing is like life itself, there are hard blows and intense emotions, to ascend towards a goal what gives us the most satisfaction is to constantly overcome ourselves and to be giving our best effort ...
 
We all have our own Everest to climb; Some have been lucky enough to arrive and others constantly strive to achieve it, the most important thing is to persevere.

Some climber would say to himself:

“Slowly I turn down, the enormous emptiness at my feet seizes my body, but my mind clings to the mountain, I am cold, very cold, the icy water that the sun has melted up penetrates the sides stealing the heat that I have left, about to fall, and at the same time I feel that I begin to levitate, hypothermia! ... wake up !, this remote wall in the Arctic circle and that no one had climbed will not be your grave !. Centimeter to centimeter advanced. When I reach the ledge I know that the summit will be ours. "

The desire to overcome the human being, either by the competitive spirit or by the desire to overcome a physical or intellectual challenge, is the basis for the achievement of achievements and goals.

It is what leads an athlete at the end of the race, or an artist to perform great works, it is the same that takes an alpinist to the top of the mountains, and once reached the desired long time summit, it is what we It leads to looking for a higher or more difficult one.

In any human activity, there are people who dare to try to realize their most ambitious desires. The question arose again and again, how to reach the summit? With intense dedication, learning along the arduous path, with determination, but above all with much affection for what we do.

We all have our own EVEREST or many of them to climb, some arrive sooner than others, some constantly strive to achieve it, however, I think the most important thing is to persevere.

When I defeated an Everest I wonder: what now, if you already climbed to the top?

Once we have reached our EVEREST, its summit becomes a step to explore new horizons, that relentless pursuit of one's own physical and mental limitations, that will to try something else is what puts the human being, in addition to intelligence, above the rest of creation, once a goal has been reached there will always be another.

Being immersed in a new challenge, our whole being must devote himself to trying to survive, studying, training, ignoring destructive criticism or envy, using our experience and creativity to reach beyond where others have come.

Climbing is like life itself, there are hard blows and intense emotions, to ascend towards a goal what gives us the most satisfaction is to constantly surpass ourselves and to be giving our best effort.

Mountaineering has been called the art of knowing how to suffer, and knowing how to do it is what gives life flavor.

To live intensely is to receive bitter failures and sweet successes, it is to get up early, to reveal oneself, to have tiredness, cold, hunger, fear and thirst, that brief passing of our body and mind in the space of life must be enjoyed intensely, but in order to do so there is to endure, and in the art of knowing how to suffer is how we can know ourselves more and thus have a fuller relationship with others.

But, isn't what you do very risky? They ask me and I wonder. When addressing any project, you have to take risks, we cannot stop running them, nor can we do it recklessly because we would not last long in the serious game of living.

A winner knows first of all to survive, thinking coldly and calculatingly, giving himself the freedom to go back at the right time and if he is prepared, force the opportunity to present himself.

The more uncertainty there has been throughout the ascent, the more satisfied we will feel when we reach the goal.

We can get to where we have dreamed, if we have been realistic in our fantasies and have used all our resources and faculties when trying.

Before or after our EVEREST, the goals can be endless, we just need to go one step further, this is when the challenge will become irresistible and our indestructible eagerness.
