My name is Jesus Bohorquez and I was born in Colombia. I decided to create The Mindful Guide to equip you with the most meaningful information on several topics I believe will take you on a pathway to happiness.
My story begins with a marital complication. My parents were never married because my father was already a husband when he met my mother. Despite my father’s marital status, my parents fell madly in love and had a child. Following my birth, my father started feeling the pressure of being away from his family, so after some years apart, he returned to his wife and left my mother. I have no recollection of the time I spent living with my father, but we were together for the first three years of my life.
Growing up in a separated household cultivated resentment and pain in my life. I always blamed my parents for my shortcomings and failures as if they were the owners of my mistakes. Due to this resentment, I turned rebellious and hateful towards my surroundings. It was not until I moved away from my native country of Colombia and started over that I had a breakthrough: it was time to move on and seek a growth mindset. I had to let go of my past and build a pathway to happiness in the midst of adversity.
Throughout my years exploring happiness, I developed what I like to call the 3 Pillars of Success and I will be delving into them using different content. The three pillars are:
- Personal
- Spiritual
- Professional
And this is where you come into the picture, like the foundation of the greatest buildings in the world, your foundation has to be strong in order to resist the daily challenges from your day-to-day life. Join me in our journey to seek happiness as we travel along the path we choose to take.
So what is the Personal Pillar?
The Personal Pillar focuses on developing a growth mindset. This pillar is all about you, and how to become better. Topics on this pillar range from self-worth and confidence, to financial success and budgeting within many others.
Then how about the Spiritual Pillar?
The Spiritual Pillar looks at building your relationship with God. This pillar targets to deepen your spiritual knowledge. Most of the content will come from The Bible and will touch topics ranging from faith, grace, wisdom, and prayer.
And you mentioned the what? The Professional Pillar?
The Professional Pillar focuses on developing a growth mindset. This pillar sharpens your networking skills and gives you the tools to reach the people around you more effectively. Topics will range from college advice to making the best decisions at the office.
