¡Hoy es martes meditativo!        (Today is meditative Tuesday!)

La fecha es el diez (10) de septiembre del año dos mil veinticuatro. (The date is September 10, 2024.)

El dicho de la semana es:

La mula que corcovea no sirve pa’l carretón.

(The saying of the week is:        The mule that bucks is not useful for a cart.)

In my opinion, this Cuban proverb is helpful in human resources. We should use discernment when placing ourselves or others in jobs. It would be counteractive to have someone do a job where they cannot prosper. What do you think this proverb teaches us?

Practice saying this phrase whenever you feel forced into a situation that goes against your nature.

¡Que tengas un martes maduro!        (May you have a mature Tuesday!)

L. A. Feliz
