The Best Way to Take Notes
Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com I must’ve listened to a podcast or something about this, but in this course, I realized that I’m already taking notes like this. Use the left side of the page to record what is being said (note taking). Not verbatim, but the ideas and thoughts that your are taking from the lesson. On the right of the page you are creating (note making). You can put down thoughts…

Purpose and Achievement
Purpose and achievement are not the same thing.
Having purpose and a meaningful life doesn’t necessarily equate to achieving something, and I feel like the two often get confused. I believe that the process is more important than the outcome. What I mean by this is that instead of focusing on getting on top of that hill, you focus on what’s more directly around you; take in everything from your environment, and focus on putting one step in…

Turning Pain into Growth
Turning Pain into Growth
I’ve probably never had a worse Monday blues than I’m having now. Coming to work, when you were supposed to be on a plane to Thailand… man that’s a real motivation killer. Let’s try to see this from the bright side. What’s the lesson here? I thought I was being organized and effective. That image has been shattered. I completely disregarded key information about my departure and focused too much…

Action Meditation
“Every action of your day can be a form of meditation. Washing the car, walking to the bus stop, vacuuming a rug, giving the dog a bath, folding laundry, typing a report, brushing your teeth. Play some ball with your kids. Climb a tree like a monkey. Make dinner. Make love. There are unlimited ways to meditate.” -Sifu Shi Yan Ming I want to share my favorite and sometimes only meditation…

Bridge
Prompted to write this post by this month's wordpress.com #WordPrompt Thank for the push!
Inspired by this month’s wordpress.com #WordPrompt, this month’s word is BRIDGE. We’re in March which is named after the Roman god of war, Mars. Back then, it was the time that military campaigning started, which is interestingly enough also round about the same time period chosen by Putin in both 2014 and 2022 to start separate campaigns in Ukraine. Anyhow, I think there’s plenty of news about…

What lights your soul on fire?
What lights your soul on fire?
I was reflecting on my day and felt that the highlights were finishing my movie during lunch break and messaging people. I felt unproductive at work and felt that my focus, especially after lunch, went out the window. I need a clearer strategy of what to focus on when I’m there so that when that after lunch dip hits, I can just ride the waves of creativity instead of being too involved with…

Gifts for the Holidays
My take on gift-giving for your kids.
I want to talk about giving gifts to your kids. I read something along the lines of ‘why kids need your presence more than they need your presents’ which I mostly agree with, however, I think gift-giving is a lot of fun, especially if they’re gifts that are meant to bring you and the receiver closer. I’m thinking mostly about my own kid here. The type of gifts I bought my kid were orientated to…

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
I recently became 30. I think it’s slowly starting to dawn on me. It makes me think about what I’m doing with my life and where I want to go. The years from 20 to 30 were a mixed bag of different experiences: university life, the transition to leaving university, getting my first ‘real’ job in Cabo Verde, making ends meet by becoming an English teacher after that ended, mushroom and permaculture…

What kind of people do you want to surround yourself with?
What kind of people do you want to surround yourself with?
They say you are the average of the five people you hang out with most. It is therefore critical that you choose those people carefully. It’s not only the people you surround yourself with but also the kind of media you consume that influence you. Media, after all, is created by people. I was thinking that if I wanted to take my blog to the next level, I would have to do more digging and read…

What's the point of blogging if I hardly get any interaction with my audience?
What’s the point of blogging if I hardly get any interaction with my audience?
Everyone that starts blogging or putting any kind of content out there will probably face this, especially in the beginning. My answer to this comes down to purpose and getting clear on the process of why you do what you do rather than being results-oriented. Of course, it’s great when people interact with your content, and getting feedback on what you’re doing can be helpful. After all, the…

What future can you envision for yourself right now?
Everytime I draw something on paper, I often tend to draw my dream. This involves a house on stilts near the beach, a garden, a kitesurfer out on the sea, a sailing yacht anchored and some palm trees. Recently, I was thinking about this again, and was thinking about where exactly this could be? Costa Rica came to mind, and Thailand as well. Thinking about this more concretely, I figured Thailand…

Where can I add more value to my company?
Where can I add more value to my company?
I’ve been thinking more about how I can use my time not just proactively for myself but for the company too. I could be more proactive in my role to seek more business. The question is how? The ideal client is one with deep pockets that is looking to produce material on a large scale. The relevant products could be books, brochures, blocks of carbonless paper, and labels as I look through the…

What's your Ikigai?
What’s your Ikigai?
Ikigai is basically very similiar to the idea of purpose or dharma depending on your school of thought. There’s this nice little venn diagram out there explaining what an Ikigai is made up of: Thinking about Ikigai, I currently see my Ikigai as helping people discover and strife towards theirs, coaching and blogging being among the channels to do so. Am I good at this? I’d like to think so.…

What was the moment you became an adult?
What was the moment you became an adult?
In our modern world, we generally lack any kind of rites of passage to transition us from childhood to adulthood. It is generally up to us to decide and go through that process for ourselves. According this article from the Art of Manliness, a rite of passage contains the following elements: SeparationTransitionRe-incorporation I think it’s generally important for young people to go through…

What do you fear?
What do you fear?
The first thing that comes to mind is losing loved ones. Keeping that in mind makes me appreciate every interaction, every moment we share together, that much more. It makes it easier to forgive as well. It reminds me to not hold back and share everything from the deepest part of my being. I have recently also been thinking about my fear of exposing myself and where that fear comes from. I think…

What's the point of having a goal in life?
What’s the point of having a goal in life?
I had some conversations about this the other day and I came to this conclusion: it’s not the goal in itself that has value; it’s the journey towards it that does. In the scope of an infinite universe, everything is essentially meaningless. It is up to us to attach meaning in whatever we do, and in that sense, having a goal in life helps us in directing our energy towards what it is we think…
