Momentos Salto Altos

July 29, 2022 Melanie Hawken

por Justina Luelo

Já lemos artigos nas redes sociais sobre como salto alto faz algumas mulheres parecerem com uma postura diferente. E muitas vezes com amigas falamos de como a Maria parece diferente hoje porque está a usar um par de saltos altos que nunca vimos antes e como ela está esbelta!

Então, o que são de concreto os momentos salto altos?

Vemos muito este momento em mulheres executivas que parecem que conseguem tudo, é um momento que sentimos um nível elevado de autoestima, confiança, humildade e inteligência emocional etc. Neste momento não nos sentimos melhor que as outras mas sim melhor que antes, não nos esquecemos das nossas fraquezas mas estamos acima delas, não deixamos elas dominarem os nossos pensamentos. A nossa autoestima  está a 100% olhamos para o dia ou semanas com expectativas que obrigam uma determinação que vem com elegância e postura não é uma determinação vulgar que nos leva a passar por cima dos outros, mas sim uma determinação inteligente.

No momento de salto alto, nós sabemos o que estamos a dizer e falamos com convicção, não queremos impressionar ninguém, mas á nós mesmas, não procuramos validação das nossas ações ou das nossas palavras, mas estamos ali por nós para representar  o que somos. Ser arrogante não é ter momento salto alto, arrogância torna as pessoas propensas a cometer erros desnecessários na vida torna-nos desleixadas. Ao contrário de arrogantes, nos sentimos que estamos mais bem capacitadas para ajudar outros a serem melhores versões deles mesmo, temos espaço para ajudar, não pensamos apenas em nós ou o que vamos fazer, mas, pensamos o que posso melhorar em mim para ajudar quem vai precisar?

Momentos salto altos fazem as pessoas ficarem atraídas por nós pela nossa energia positiva que levamos aos outros, as pessoas querem ficar ao nosso- lado para saber como temos esta energia positiva e saber como elas podem tê-la também. Acordamos com disposição para vencer e, ao longo do dia vamos- nos lembrando das coisas que nos são queridas, preciosas, não é que podemos fazer tudo ou enfrentar tudo, mas, é que nós estamos preparadas para cair e levantar sabemos que na vida as coisas não são preto ou branco e por isso estamos preparadas para momentos cinzentos, e momentos escuros, temos maturidade suficiente para aceitar o que surge com aprendizado com uma caneta e um papel para fazer apontamentos das várias lições que a vida trás, e temos sempre tempo para agradecer porque sabemos que, o que temos hoje amanhã pode ser um sonho por mais pequeno que seja.

Mulheres maduras conseguem momentos de salto altos e permanecem nele por muito tempo e mesmo quando este momento termina sabem como voltar a tê-lo porque aprenderam o suficiente. O momento do salto alto carrega multidões porque quem passa por ele sabe que o caminho faz-se caminhando acompanhado de pessoas que acreditam em nós, pessoas que conseguem dizer a verdade quando precisamos ouvir e conseguem mentir para ajudar a não perdermos o foco.
