I started the year with the energy and drive to move mountains. I felt like I could do anything I set my eyes on. Boy, I was wrong! And if you’re thinking about Covid-19 … that’s just half of the story.
You see, I started earlier…
How to achieve progress on your New Year’s resolutions in 3 simple steps
If you’re willing to put in effort, determination and hard work, this approach might help. It’s been a game changer for me, changing the way I look at things, making it simple, and helping me see how I was getting into my own way.
New Year New Me? Not really…
I used to be one of those fascinated with the promise of a blank page: full of possibilities, full of potential adventures and new, unspoken, promises. I used to be one of those who woke up on 1 Jan amazed by everything the New Year could bring. Somehow I thought that if I can dream it, I can do it
Business journaling for stress relief
Not sure about you, but the last thing I feel like doing, when I’m stressed and pissed off, is to go somewhere quiet and write about it. There are a zillion other things I can think of doing in the moment, but writing just doesn’t feel natural – and this comes from a person who […]
London, rules and evenings out
In my thirties I had very little rules. Just coming out of my rebellious 20s, I usually made decisions based on feelings or intuition and saw no point in having rules for myself. Why would I do that, after spending all my life listening to others’ rules? 10 years later, I have many rules. They […]

What going up on a skateboard after 29 years taught me about attention, learning and going back up
No, I’m not kidding and I’ve got a bruised knee to prove it 😉 I almost learned to skate when I was in 5th grade. It was a few months after I broke my leg and I managed to ride 4-5 times down the street until my mom caught me and forbid me to talk […]
How do you play your business game?
I used to think that strategy meant keeping some lucky cards out of sight and playing your jokers at the right time. Later I’ve learned that strategy is more about choices than about cards and, from that moment on, this game we play and call “career” started to be more fun to play. When I […]
