Post-Brexit UK must bleed for the EU to survive
A utopian outcome is whereby the United Kingdom would recover part or all of its past lustre. The UK economy would be buoyant, immigration would be controlled and selective, employment would be at an all-time high and even the weather would improve. Under that scenario, it would not take long for other prosperous EU countries to emulate Brexit, leaving only laggards in a decaying Union.
The neutral scenario pictures a post-Brexit landscape either unchanged or wherein negative changes would have offset positive ones. Such an outcome would raise the question:
“if it makes little to no change to be part of the EU, what do we need the EU for?”
The dystopian scenario is bloody. Brexit would be hard, the UK would wage a trade war with the EU, be sidelined by the US and China, and would have to open its border to immigration in exchange for staple goods supplied by India. The markets would collapse, unemployment would skyrocket, social dissatisfaction would soar. The EU would be dragged down by the UK’s festering economy but to a lesser extent, enabling unionists to blame Brexit.
No EU politician can overtly call for UK woes but what would you be prone to do if you were pro-EU?

Desespecialízate
Entiendo la postura de Goleman y los peligros de la infoxicación. También es de sobra conocida la teoría de las “10.000 horas”, las necesarias –presuntamente- para dominar una materia.
Pues bien, me quedo con dos ejemplos metafóricos como siempre y metonímicos en esta ocasión: el Amazonas y Amazon.
En el Amazonas hay más de 14.000 especies de plantas, un botánico que viviese allí y sólo se dedicase al estudio de una de ellas, es decir al 0,000071% de las posibilidades que hay a su alrededor, estaría de manero inconsciente amputando su vocación personal y profesional, limitando su curiosidad
En Amazon hay más de mil millones de productos, si tuviésemos 24 horas para elegir, ¿nos centraríamos sólo en el primero que saliese al azar?
La especialidad fue coetánea a los gremios de los trabajadores. Hoy día, usemos anglicismos o no, el mundo – el profesional también- es otro: knowmdas, catalizadores, aprendizaje continuo…
La única especialidad que no es ciega es la del mundo biomédico que a la postre, con sus patentes, salva millones de vidas.
La especialidad ciega el mundo complejo que nos rodea. Especialízate en tu trabajo, sé el mejor pero ten una visión poliédrica del mundo cambiante, si no, no estarás en él.
