“You don't have life because you don't feel like it.” Helena Sempere, chaos manager, consultant and pedagogue, does not hesitate today in La Vanguardia to warn that learning to manage time well is essential in life as well as at work. She throws shortcuts to achieve it.

There is life beyond football. There is news that goes almost unnoticed here but that shows that, in the world, there are several worlds, like this: India has lost the final of the Cricket World Cup at home; It means seeing a billion broken hearts!
