Preparándonos adecuadamente (Por: Ricardo Tribín Acosta)

E   N     M   I     O   P   I    N   I   O   N

No que va, dice el pequeño implicado; yo no quiero estudiar puesto que en el futuro voy a ser esto o aquello, sin precisar cómo es que lo va a lograr. Y ya adulto, el ser humano le saca el bulto a la responsabilidad evitando o protestando cuando le toca hacer algún curso o especialización que su trabajo le exige. Y es que el prepararse, a la mar de conveniente, no es tarea fácil, ya que requiere de un esfuerzo individual el que quizás se ve a ratos como un imposible.

De lo anterior se agrega el cuán importante resulta también ser  responsables de nuestras fallas y equivocados procederes, agregando con énfasis lo que dijo Benjamín Franklin “Cuando fallamos en prepararnos, nos preparamos para fallar”, implicando esto que, quien no se capacita y prepara adecuadamente, perfectamente se podrá clasificar en la categoría de los “no se puede”.

Por eso, cuando los padres le digan al niño “estudie mijito para que cuando grande no sea un ignorante”, este, sin refunfuñar, debería estar dispuesto a responder, como en épocas de antaño  “Si señor, o si señora”, sin mayor preámbulo o discusión, derivándose de ahí una vocación necesaria para su paso por la vida.
