10 Reasons I Must Be The Next CEO Of Twitter: Vale!
The post 10 Reasons I Must Be The Next CEO Of Twitter: Vale! appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
Growing up in Buenos Aires I had dreams of being an actress and winning an Oscar. I gave speeches of gratitude to the Academy in the only bathroom we had for our family of five. The soap was my microphone, the mirror my audience. My hair was beautiful.
But my father said I should learn to type and be a secretary. So I did.
Estoy Capacitada Para Ser CEO de Twitter
His words melted into my bones and convinced me there was a ceiling for me: Secretary, maybe teacher.
That changed today, when my husband looked me in the eyes and told me I have so many ideas I should be CEO of Twitter.… Read the rest

What is ONE Tip To Start Meditation?
The post What is ONE Tip To Start Meditation? appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
ONE THING:
Notice the voice that is constantly talking in your head. Usually in negative form, or criticizing others.
Do you hear it? Can you notice it?
If you CAN that is GREAT…
If the voice tells you something like:
“This is not right, this answer is stupid and you should not be reading this..”
You are in luck, because:
THAT IS THE VOICE!
You found it!
Can you quiet it down somehow?
Can you somehow go underneath the inner verbal diarrhea?
Can you stop it long enough just so you see how you feel when there is no constant constant commentary?… Read the rest

I Had To Go! – The Yoga Podcast Ep#11
The post I Had To Go! – The Yoga Podcast Ep#11 appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
I had to go. Badly. But one of my three roommates was taking a luxury long shower in the only bathroom. What to do?! No oh no! The thought crossed my mind…Use the Indian bathroom? Me?
[Click HERE to Start Listening Now, or I-TUNES]
None of the four of us sub-leasing that house in Mysore, South India circa 2008 had yet opened THAT door.
None of us had dared step into the vortex of how two thirds of the world do their business.
But I had to. What was the alternative?
So I did.
I opened the door…. Slowly. … Read the rest

10 Reasons JetBlue Is My Favorite Airline
The post 10 Reasons JetBlue Is My Favorite Airline appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
I am sitting on a wide comfy leather chair that will take me from JFK to Los Angeles, a crew member offers me iced-water with a bit of honey and a mint leaf…
Would you like vodka with it? She asks.
No thanks. I say
Later I chew on my mint and blow kisses across the corridor to James, we have our own separate seats in an airplane for the first time in our marriage, and thanks to booking very early. Please don’t hate me… You will see why in a few lines.
We are on JetBlue Mint, and we have a private cabin, not just a seat.… Read the rest

Yoga: How I lost 30 Pounds-Never Saw Them Again
The post Yoga: How I lost 30 Pounds-Never Saw Them Again appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
In January of 2008 I set off for a long trip to India to study in Mysore, when I returned in late February I was 30 pounds lighter and I have kept that weight off ever since. It’s been 7 years!
A friend who knew me “before” and then “after”, recently asked how did this happened. Exploring her question led me to understand that it was not just because of the yoga, or the food, and certainly not because I was mean or deprecating to myself.
Here is what I learned and the new healthy habits I implemented to allow the release to happen.

A yogi practicing the fourth series of Ashtanga Yoga (which in plain terms means something like winning an olympic gold medal three times, not that asana should EVER be on the olympics… But just to give you an idea)

Don’t Say Yes When You Want To Say NO
The post Don’t Say Yes When You Want To Say NO appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
“YES, AND” Is the way out… It is how you can say NO! When you mean it.
I attach the latest episode#262 of Ask Altucher where we talk about it in detail [bottom of post]
Because it is THAT important…
Heck! James and I even wrote a book called “The Power Of No” – Mostly because we, also, struggle with it…
And it is critical:
YOU MUST NOT SAY “YES” WHEN YOU MEAN TO SAY “NO”
So: Saying “yes, and” can save the day…
For example:
If you like the the idea of doing something someone is asking, but have no time, you could say:
YES, I want the best for your project, I believe in it and I want it to excel AND, thing is I would only contribute if I can give it 150% of my energy and time which at the moment I don’t have….

How To Get Any Job You Want: Guaranteed
The post How To Get Any Job You Want: Guaranteed appeared first on Claudia Yoga - Ideas From a Yogi Entrepreneur.
When someone says “guaranteed” I get a neg-gut reaction, you probably do too, so let me say it right off the start: this woman is doing it. She is getting the job she wants. TODAY.
She may or may not get the “company” she wants, true, but she is talking to the CEO of Airbnb TODAY, right here in San Francisco, where I am blessed to be.
How many resume senders get that opportunity?
There is a way out of the Alcatraz of the Mind
So it works… And you can listen to James and I deconstruct exactly what she did right here.… Read the rest
