The first step


I did not imagine how hard it would be to create a simple weblog. I am mixture of two profiles called "hurry up", which means that I want to do things very fast in less time possible, and also "be perfect", which means that I need to have things fast and very well done. It is hard to find this profiles but these are one among others thousands definitions that you can find about me.

Just to have an idea how hard was it, to decide the name it would show in the blog I took a while. I was trying to identify which groups of friends would be the "target" of my blog. I could be called Boca, Jussy, Marcelao, Marce, Marcelinho, Celo, BH, etc.... I am a mixture of many things, many experiences.

Maybe you could say that I have many different faces, I am not one person, I am Geminis. Actually it can be true. Is true in the sense I am very adaptable and flexible to deal with many different group of people, to live different situations, in different countries. Some of you know me going to the budist spiritual retirement, some you may know me enjoying the best of Carnival in Brazil, some of you may know me as the funny most extroverted guy in the group, some of you may know the serious team leader, some of you may know the workaholic team player, some of you know the smart strategist, some of you the tireless implementer, some of you the soccer player, some of you the dancer, some the poor guy from Ipanemao, some of you the no-immigrant citizen living in South Florida in a house with swimming pool, some of you know me speaking Portuguese, portuñol or funny English, etc....

It was always hard for me to define myself or use this mass communication channels as orkut, linked in, facebook, mailing list or blog because of the different "target groups". But I am pretty sure about my essence, the core that do not change, the values that is the base of my been, my beliefs, my goals, my opinion and step by step I am shaping my mission that contributes to a better world.

So let´s start this new virtual communication experience and exercise myself reflecting while writing in this blog.
