This is a YouTube video titled "¿Cómo dejar de reaccionar y empezar a liderar tu vida? | EUGENIO BAEZA Cracks Podcast" containing a conversation between two speakers discussing personal development topics such as political career decisions, self-reflection, inner peace, and virtues. The dialogue explores themes of planning one's destiny and achieving happiness through inner peace. The content was created in August 2025.
And some people who had to do with the PAN and the PRI listened to me and heard me giving a talk. I don't know what it was about. A and then the PAN and the PRI came and visited me and told me and offered me to be a deputy. And I was 32 years old at the time, so, ah, I thought, well, how cool that they would take you into account at this time.
Right.
And then I started thinking about what a political career would be and what a business career would be. And at that time I saw Salinas, who was 42 years old and was president of Mexico. So I said, M, I'm 32. If in 10 years I don't manage to be at least governor of Chihuahua, well, there's no other way to dedicate myself to that. So I would have to leave all this to put 100% into being a politician and try to get this place of the size that I wanted.
Right.
And on the other hand, I began to make a plan of where I was, of my daughters, of what my relationship with my family was like, what my relationship as a citizen was like, and what my relationship as a person was like with my friends. And then I began to write what the architect of your destiny is. When I began to write what the architect of your destiny is, I started with a part that, as I was telling you a little while ago, is biological. So where was I? Well, I was trying to get rid of mistakes to promote virtues.
Right.
So how do I get rid of this that I have that is causing me a problem? Yes. And how do I turn it into something that generates peace and happiness? Really?
Right.
That peace, the inner peace, is what gives us happiness. While one is clinging to oneself, it is difficult to be happy. And that definition of what I don't like and what I would like to do is where this issue of planning begins, first of all for the person, for the family, and for the impact that I was having at that time. So if you analyze it, the architect says, my relationship with God. And there are a series of chapters that talk about meditation and how to find vices and virtues and how to fight against that. Right. Talk to Michelangelo, the archangel with the flaming sword. Yeah. Oh, where was I? Well, I was trying to get rid of mistakes to promote virtues.
Right.
So how do I get rid of this that I have that is causing me a problem? Yes. And how do I turn it into something that generates peace and happiness? Really?
Right.
That peace, the inner peace, is what gives us happiness. While one is clinging to oneself, it is difficult to be happy.
