There are rumours ...

Everything worth fighting for unbalances your life

There is no such thing as work-life balance. Everything worth fighting for unbalances your life


Alain De Botton

Your life changes the moment you make a new, 

congruent and committed decision

Tony Robbins

To act as one thinks ...

To think is easy. To act is difficult.
To act as one thinks is the most difficult.

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

On enjoying the journey

Mountains should be climbed with as little effort as possible and without desire. The reality of your own nature should determine the speed. If you become restless, speed up. If you become winded, slow down. You climb the mountain in an equilibrium between restlessness and exhaustion. Then, when you are no longer thinking ahead, each footstep isn’t just a means to an an end but a unique event in itself. This leaf has jagged edges. This rock looks loose. From this place the snow is less visible, even though closer. These are things you should notice anyway. To live only for some future goal is shallow. It’s the sides of the mountain that sustain life, not the top. Here’s where things grow.

Robert Pirsig (Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance)

An endless stream of puzzle pieces

The world comes to us in an endless stream of puzzle pieces that we would like to think all fit together somehow, but that in fact never do.

“Our journey to YES is the way we honour our hopes and dreams. Saying YES to the things that challenge us or scare us is the way we learn about our limitless capabilities. The adventures we encounter and the things we learn about ourselves along the way puts the twinkle in our eyes and sets the foundations for our next adventure”   (Leah Gilbert)
