simplicity of happinesssimplicity of happinessSE05 happy#229 - ups and downsIt's the end of the year, a time for personal episode again. 2023 hasn't been an easy journey for me, and I believe it's crucial to discuss struggles, fears, and losses. Life isn't defined by the absence of problems but by how we deal with them. Everything in life has a flip side of the coin. You can't choose 'no problems,' only the price you're willing to pay. By sharing that I also confront my demons, I hope to encourage you to do the same and strive for the life you love.

After taking some time off and prioritizing different aspects, I want you to know that I never forgot about you, and now I’m back. In the upcoming weeks, I’ll be sharing some prerecorded episodes before launching Season 6 of the podcast. I’m still shaping the focus for the new season and would love to hear your input.

Today's guest The Success Factor author, Ruth Gotian. A woman who has dedicated herself to meeting the most successful minds to study them and learn about their mindset and practices. Her investigation yielded a surprising result—she discovered that all these people had four elements in common that allowed them to achieve success.

It can become difficult to chose between investment and return, especially when helping others? Does there really need to be a return or is it about how we feel ourself doing it in the first place? A while ago, I had the chance to help a friend who found himself in a difficult situation. All I did was asking others, including my newsletter subscribers to help me and him out. I was blown away by the help we received for my friend and it made me proud that I...2021-11-2817 minsimplicity of happinesssimplicity of happinessSE05 - happy#223 - introvertIntrovert or Extrovert. Most of us heart these terms before, but who can recall any business training, strategy or job motivation that did not seem to be for the extroverts. I belief that this is more on the behavioral site than a real character trade and this behavior being caused by different intrinsic motivations. Nevertheless it occurs in each one of us. Jon Bakers, todays guest specializes in training and coaching for introverts and people leading introverts in their team. Being an introvert himself it is a wonderful insightful conversation with him.

That’s the equivalent of over $1,200 today. He referred to it as his ‘f–– you money’, because it meant he’d never be forced to take a part he didn’t want.

At first glance they seem to be a happy couple that found their role by successfully raising 4 children and having a career. But, there is more to it and it did not go as expected and they had to take some unconventional turns.

No, it is well curated! Things that minimalists own, fulfill a purpose and often you will find a lot of high quality items in their daily life. That is because they don‘t like trash in their life and things that are used regularly are therefor higher quality. You see, being a minimalist is not about saying no. It is about saying yes to the right things. Owning is fine, as long as you use it or is at least bringing value to your life. Less distraction, more focus!

I include myself into this category. 
No matter how much we think that life is fooling us, it is on us to choose what we make of it. Basically we close to unlimited options and often that is a reason for our misery. As soon as we take a decision for something, we have to say no to everything else that we could possibly do. Because… there is only room to do one thing at once. But there are people within our society that face constant discrimination and...2021-07-0943 minsimplicity of happinesssimplicity of happinessSE05 - happy#217 - avoid 9’s and go for 10’sI am finally sharing an episode with you that I recorded a while ago.

Around 2012 I had accumulated a lot of emotional and physical luggage that started to wear me out. I questioned who I was, who I was becoming and most of all who I actually wanted to become. Amongst others I found inspiration by people like Leo Babauta of Zen Habits, Colin Wright (https://simplicity-of-happiness.com/happy150/) and the minimalists Josh and Ryan.

A person I value a lot for almost 10 year now is Leo Babauta. He is a minimalist and founder of the super successful blog Zen Habits. I read most of his blog posts and get inspired by a lot of his thoughts. What I find especially interesting about Leo is that he lives in a family of 8. His wife, their 6 children and himself.

Most often the worst a moment right now can be, is unpleasant. Worry and grief often comes from the past, from something that already happened. Fear and anxiety on the other hand comes from thoughts about the future. As the future is never present it is only the thoughts that create the anxiety. The thoughts are created by your mind. Therefor you can change the thoughts and the fear that comes with it.

There was a time when I could not let go of excess stuff. While my income was increasing I purchased new stuff every once in a while but I did not let go of the old.

Then I realized, that it doesn‘t matter if it was episode 200, 300, 1000 or any random number in between. It is always the most important episode that I am recording at the moment. Life is a progress and always now. Therefor it also doesn‘t make sense to feel grief about the past or anxiety about the future.

About life and what it means to us, to me. What will happen when we don‘t put the money on the table and expect the most for it. Most people on earth being locked away gives plenty of room for other things. Such as nature, or reflexion.

I trained myself over the last year to always look out for the positive. Every crisis has a chance to grow and still it feels awful to be in the middle of one. It is easy to loose sight of the light at the end of the tunnel. One thing I learned to cope better with the frustrations is to be absolutely open and vulnerable. Communicate the struggles.

Mainly how to embrace struggle, failure and backsets into a learning possibility and the opportunity to grow. A belief and mindset that helps you on that journey is the realization that what brought you here won‘t get you there.

Another way to look at the very same process is slowing down to speed up. So many of our largest mistakes happen when we rush into something. Being slow, like traveling on a sailboat will make you much more aware of your surroundings. Not only will it help you to notice more but also enjoy it so much more than before.

Once again it amazed me to see beautiful nature in national parks even larger than some countries. To see the complexity and harmony of nature which is left alone by the humans is a gift and reminds me on how important it is for us humans to step back and give nature its place. At least we should see ourself as a part of something bigger again an re-integrate.

Unlike consulting, coaching does not offer a new action plan or one new set of goals. At least does it have the potential to change much more. Good coaching touches you on the inside and is able to unveil your biggest dreams and greatest desires. It can shift your mindset, change your image of the world and therefor create a new reality for you. Coaching can change everything, what do you want to change?
