About Me

It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for – and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing. It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool – for love – for your dreams – for the adventure of being alive.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Let go of the materialism mentality. It has changed my life so much, i'm so much happier now!

Teach, Learn, Share

Do you remember, when you first went to school? You went to kindergarden, and in kindergarden the idea was to push along so that you could get into first grade and then push along to get into second grade, third grade and so on and up and up and then you went to high school. This was a great transition in life and all the pressure is being put on, you must get ahead. You must go up the grades and finaly be good enough to get into college. And then when you get into college, youre still going step by step up to the great moment when you are ready to go out into the world. And then, when you go out into this famous world, comes the struggle for succes and profession of business. And again there seems to be a ladder before you, something for which you are reaching all the time. And then... Suddenly... When you are about 40, 45 years old, in the middle of life you wake up one day and say: 'Huh? I've arrived. And though, i feel pretty much thesame as i have always felt. In fact, im not sure if i don't even feel a bit cheated.' Because, you see, you were fooled. You are always living somewhere, where you aren't. And while, as i said, it is of troumendes use for us to be able to look ahead in this way and plan. There is no use planning for a future which when you get to it and it becomes the present you won't be there. You'll be living in some other future which haven't yet arrived. And so in this way one is never able actually to inharet and enjoy the fruits of ones actions. You can't live at all unless you can fully live now.
