Achieving a goal doesn't always guarantee fulfillment. Sometimes we reach the finish line but lose something important along the way. The way we pursue something matters just as much as what we're pursuing. What happens when the "how" and the "why" fall out of sync? How can we align our actions with our values while learning? What does it mean to choose presence over pressure? These are some of the questions we explore in episode number 91 of “Poder aprender.”

Many of us set goals without thinking about how we want to get there. But the way we practice—our energy, mindset, and intention—often reflects our values and shapes who we become in the process.

True progress requires more than effort; it requires aligned effort. Doing something with awareness, even for a short time, can be more impactful than pushing ourselves for hours without focus or intention.

Sometimes we chase shortcuts or intensity in the name of efficiency, but that can come at the cost of sustainability. Learning to value slower, more intentional progress can lead to deeper, long-term transformation.

Small, consistent actions—like delaying a reaction by a few seconds or walking a few extra minutes each day—might seem insignificant. But over time, they prepare us for bigger changes and help us become the kind of person we aspire to be.

These are the topics of episode #91:

  • Living your values while learning
  • Integrity in effort: not all practice is equal
  • The cost of wrong views and shortcuts
  • Good means as preparation for better ends
