In the series of MAU Talks held weekly at Millennia Atlantic University’s School of Business in Doral, we have had the opportunity to listen to various distinguished speakers. One of them is Heradio Luces, a Cancer survivor, business consultant, mentor, motivational speaker, professor, and author of the book “Business from the Self.” In this presentation, Luces shares his experience of overcoming and resilience in the face of cancer adversity and how the attitude of wanting to live makes a difference in the healing process.
Resilience for Triumph: Is Wanting to Live Different from Not Desiring to Die?
The Path of Resilience
Heradio Luces recounts that his path to resilience was not easy. After facing a cancer diagnosis and medical complications, he had to deal with a series of physical, emotional, and spiritual challenges. However, during this process, he learned valuable lessons about the importance of wanting to live and not simply avoiding death.
He shares that resilience is not a battle between winners and losers, but a process of learning and inner transformation. By facing difficulties with faith, enthusiasm, and positive energy, he was able to connect with what truly mattered in his life and find meaning in adversity.
The Importance of Attitude
One of the fundamental keys that Luces highlights in his presentation is the importance of attitude towards illness and challenges. When we focus on not wanting to die, we center our attention on the problem and fear. In contrast, when we direct our focus toward healing and the desire to live fully, we change our perspective and open ourselves to new possibilities.
A positive attitude and faith were fundamental pillars of his healing process. Heradio Luces invites us to believe in remission and the capacity for transformation, to be grateful for what we have in life, and to face difficulties with enthusiasm and courage.
Entrepreneurship and Transformation
Luces shares his experience as an entrepreneur and how resilience also applies to the business world. The ability to adapt, overcome obstacles, and maintain faith and enthusiasm are essential to carry out a successful project.
He emphasizes that the ego can be an obstacle on the path to success. Humility and willingness to learn and change are essential for personal and professional growth. Additionally, he highlights the importance of focusing on the positive, seeking alternatives, and not getting stuck with the diagnosis but with the attitude to face the situation and find solutions.
Resilience as a Process of Transformation
In conclusion, Heradio Luces emphasizes that resilience is a process of transformation and learning. It is not about a fight between winning or losing, but about finding the inner strength to face difficulties and grow from them.
Wanting to live is different from not desiring to die. A positive focus and an attitude of healing are key to overcoming obstacles and living a whole and meaningful life. Resilience invites us to rebel against adversity and embark on a journey of personal and professional transformation.
Conclusion
Heradio Luces‘s presentation on resilience and wanting to live is an inspiring testimony of overcoming and bravery. Through his experience of facing cancer and transforming challenges into opportunities, he shows us the power of a positive attitude and faith in the healing process.
Resilience is a fundamental quality both in personal life and in the business world. It invites us to face difficulties with enthusiasm, gratitude, and perseverance, and to seek creative solutions to the challenges that come our way.
As entrepreneurs, we can learn a lot from Heradio Luces’s story and apply his approach of resilience and transformation to our projects and lives. The key is to want to live fully, not letting ourselves be defeated by fear or adverse circumstances, and facing each day with the conviction that we are capable of overcoming any obstacle and achieving triumph.
