3rd # All sleeping in the street in front of the CAP of Drassanes (11-12 November)

#HomelessEntrepreneur believes that  commitment will eliminate homelessness , which is why we are going to hold a  24-hour monthly event  until Barcelona eliminates homelessness. This event will include  a street conference  given by experts on homelessness and other relevant areas  from 19h30-21h30 on the first night. All citizens who wish to share their commitment of eliminating homelessness, will then sleep in the street that night in the same area that the conference is held. The following day will be spent promoting awareness about homelessness and raising donations to eliminate it for the next #HomelessEntrepreneur. Our goal is to raise 10,000 € per month (the cost to provide housing for 1 year and create a small business for 1 homeless person) because we'd like to end up homelessness for 1 person each event we hold. Everyone will be given cardboard signs and flyers.

The  third event will start on November 11th  and the speakers for the street conference (19h30-21h30) will be  Andrew Funk  (President of #HomelessEntrepreneur),  Álvaro Vives Suñé  (Board Deputy Head of Andrology at Fundació Puigvert),  Marcel Abbad Sort  (President of Oportunitas Foundation),  Jesús Martinez  (Reporter and author of # HomelessEntrepreneur's 1st book, El Peso),  Menchu omero  (social worker) and  Marcos Garrido  (the 1st #HomelessEntrepreneur). The format is very simple and interactive, so eat ready to participate and speak your mind!

For those who plan on braving the night with us and create greater awareness until 19h the next day, there are some simple rules everyone should follow:

"Angel of the Street" by Matthew Nicholson

A special thanks to Matthew Nicholson, @NicholsonPoet, for letting us share his poem to create greater visibility for homeless people!

"Angel of the Street"
Guardian of the doorway
faithful servant by his side
'I need money not your pity' reads his sign
I can feel his sense of pride.
Watching people disapprovingly
pass by with shaking head
their judgement pollutes the city air
not a single word is said.
I've seen enough
and make a stand,
I pat his dog
and shake his hand.
We both laugh at
the crowded stare
of faceless people
passing there.
He greets me so warmly
and offers me a seat
'take the weight off your shoulders friend
and rest your weary feet'
'What troubles you today?' he asks
As I let out a sigh.
I feel numb and empty
came the words of my reply.
'Breathe deep, feel.
Release your fears.
It's never as bad
As it ever appears!'
His calming presence
cleansed me instantly
giving his friendship
and advice for free.
Thanking him, I asked
is there something I can do for you?
'No, but thanks. It seems
The challenge lies with you.'

7 Steps for Homeless People to Develop Good Habits

Not all homeless people have bad habits in the same manner that not all of them do not have good habits and employable skills. There are times when things do not go their way and suddenly they're without a job, a home and so-called friends.

When in dire straits, sometimes it makes you think of the more important things in life that do not have material value. You can become more grateful, assess your life, come up with a plan to get back on your feet and take responsibility for all your actions. You can even say that being thrown into homelessness can be a wakeup call as you have been taking things for granted, which in itself is bad.

When you're into this kind of situation and you have taken stock of your previous life, you'll realize that you do not actually need too many material possessions. It can open your eyes to search for and utilize available resources, such as a public library, nature, free services and socializing with friends. If you can start developing good habits, you'll be able to plan your life better by taking one step at a time, relieve your impatience to get ahead, make realistic projections and aim for reachable goals.

If you want to set new directions in your life and know why developing good habits can be instrumental to become more productive, efficient and enjoy the true meaning of life, take a look at this easy-to-grasp infographic, right here.
