These Days… when you are hustling and grinding… and have no clue where you are… - Struggling along nearly losing hope, questioning your decisions… and if you are still sane... - That’s the point when you have to buckle down… take a deep breath and go all in… there is not much left you can lose… - Only gain… you have just to hold on a little more… a little longer… - And once you have hold on long enough… and you look up.. you will see this… - There will be light… still far down the road… but there will be a horizon… - Your goal is reachable… then you have to be disciplined… and do whatever it takes… or all is effort is lost… - Don’t let it go to waste… take a good look… and ask you the only question that matters… - ... why? - #graditude #sunrise #entrepreneur #grateful #nature #hustle #love #sunrise_lovers #hustling #thankful #sunrise_and_sunsets #entrepreneurship #positivevibes #sunrises #success #positivity #wealth #entrepreneurlife #graditudeeverydamnday #sunriselovers #hustlinghard #graditudeimproves #sunrise_madness #inspiration #motivation #naturelovers #instagood #graditudechallenge #sunset #sky https://www.instagram.com/p/BqArPiEgyXM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=iebtcsy1clxc

When you are fighting the biggest fight, the dragon within yourself. The result of one of my hardest weeks in my life. I went through fear, anger, frustration,... - It brought me to my limits… I wanted to quit several times… stop looking into the mirror… just hide somewhere… not talking to anybody anymore... - I slept next to nothing, always got pushed out of my comfort zone. Would make it? What to do next? Or happened next. This sucked big time... - When I started the journey. Knowing I can’t get where I want if I don’t change something. So I signed up… with a big price I would have to pay. - Everything started 3 months prior. The world was ok for me. Not realizing what’s possible for me. Wanted to find someone special. - I found the book again who stared my journey several years ago. The book had changed… I read a different message. - This time it felt right. To make another step into a new direction. Not knowing how and what could happen then. That was not important. - I had the WHY… this was key… the only thing that mattered. This experience changed my life, I changed… - Push through the hard times. It is worth the troubles and effort. - #hardweek #fightingthedragon #brave #ichanged #neverquit #nevergiveup #journey #whenyouknowwhy #results #pushthrough #happiness #decision #mindset #paytheprice #markuswinkler #patience #graditude #dinner #fancyrestaurant #photography #enjoylife #mylimit #gotpushed (at Budapest, Hungary) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpC7GoODr93/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1tfi44eiupkgt

Peter was hiding behind the piller. The police raced by. He caught his breath again. Slowly he looked if there is anyone else. - He tossed his red jacked. And went to the location his phone was showing him. His heart was racing and his senses sharp. - Three hours before he was chilling at the hotels lounge. Just finish the call with Jenny. He was excited to meet her at the train station. - Peter was new here in Dublin. He would start working for a giant tech company the next day. This was his chance. His way out. - He grew up in a small village in the countryside from Romania. Curious about computers he learned how to program. - With 15 the police showed up at his door. He was very troubled at this time. - His friends were the same. The met everyday online. They used nickname like darkknighty32 and howdar65. - One day before finishing school a letter was delivered. It was a security firm who wanted to hire him. - He never applied for a job. He jumped to his laptop and looked them up. The code on the page was strange. - While poking around on the page the phone rang. A foreign number. He hesitated to pick it up. It was the HR manager the tech firm. - On his way to the train station Jenny messaged him. She would be late. While waiting in a coffee shop. He went through his code again. - He noticed a strange behavior from his modem. There was something off. Then he looked around him. One man stood out. - After leaving he felt like he was followed. Not a new situation. This time he didn't know the area good. - Suddenly he got a message from a friend. His heart pounded faster. The message: "The box got wet." - A location popped up on the display. "Freeze" someone shouted behind him. He stared to run. Jumped down the stairs and could get out. - Four minutes later running and jumping. He could hide behind the piller. Still not knowing exactly what went wrong. - He knew he couldn't go back. Still he had no idea what will happen at the point his phone showed him. - Peter looked carefully around the last corner. Then he messaged Jenny. "Hey Jenny, sorry! I had no choice… please forgive me." - To be continued - #shortstory #storywriting #photography #cityphotography (at Dublin, Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo8ZrVEBss2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=98qsnjcdj58j

You sometimes walk just by, not realizing that something has changed. Our world is moving. The change is fast and steady. - Most of us are so buried in thought about things they can't control. It takes all their mental capacity. - Focus on what you can change. Focus on what you want. - Wake up and enjoy life. - Nobody knows actually for how long. - #fontain #innsbruck #hausdermusik #perspective #wakeup #nightpicture #photography #enjoylife #focus #change #movingfast #musichouse #brunnen #citywalk #nightinthecity #handyphotographer (at Innsbruck, Austria) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo7Bu1Uh-uT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1uzwjeuljfq75

It's very impressive what one brick after another could become… The same is with one step after another… even baby steps… will bring you somewhere… - You have to know where you want to go. Without a goal or aim it's hard to hit what you want. - "Are you going know where or are you going nowhere" don't know who said this… still it's a great question. - Just doing to be busy is not helpful. - What and Why are a great start. - Find out what you like. - Find people who like it to. - Get better at it. - Share what you are doing. - Have fun with it. - Share this message with everyone who needs to read this. - #brickafterbrick #stepafterstep #impressive #knowwhereyougo #goals #whatandwhy #milan #photography #goalsetting #travel #patience #cathedral (at Duomo di Milano - Duomo Cathedral It) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo3shx7hP3a/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=83wpmqm5st65

How easy it is to be happy. To smile for no reason. To have a honest conversation with a friend. Or even a interesting one with a stranger. To be ourselves. Without judgement. - Life is amazing. You have to believe. You have to love. You have to forgive yourself. You have to say sorry. You have to say thank you. - Nobody will do it for you. It's your life. - Do it now. Our time here is finite. - Live without regrets. Try everything that interests you. - Find out who you are. Be curious. - Be kind, be nice. Share happiness. - Have empathy. Self awareness is key. - Be in the now... learn from the past... prepare for the future... - #smiling #picture #photography #happy #empathy #patience #gratitude #benice #curiosity #selfawareness #bekind #accountability #perspective #truth https://www.instagram.com/p/Bo0rxdIBlFP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6hrvszmnls8m

This was start of an amazing night. Nobody thought about how remarkably this whole day could get. Sreams, tears and joy... -- 6 hours earlier we entered this amusemtnpark. To celebrate the birthday of my sister Steff. The 5 of ous where exited, like some 5 year olds. -- While driving here Peter and Romina couldn't stop talking about their favourite ride. Only Andy my sisters boyfriend was silent… he didn't know what to expect. -- The roller coasters are the highlights of this park. Everyone except Andy thought so. And the best… very short rows. We were pumped to get more rides in. -- At first we hopped 3 times on the small one. For warm ups. There were some other attractions we rode. While on the way to the big roller coasters. -- As we stood at the first big one. The old one. Not the fastest but you have to drive it once. Andy whos normal always the loudest. Was dead silence. He never sat in something like that. -- The cable ar started to climb to the top. I missed the clicking sound. You know when it stops, the fun starts. Andy started to lose his color. He looked like a ghost. -- Swoosh and we took the first dive down. One looping… and the next… Amazing. Still it's always too short. -- We started laughing about the pictures that got made. Still pale but happy was Andy. He was shure but he liked it somehow. -- The next one was already insight. 12 mins later we hat that one also in the books. We hopped from attraction to attraction. The free fall was a little challenging. -- Then we stood there… The new one. The big one. The Raptor. It felt impressive. And the screams from the people added to it. -- We stood in line… but Andy hesitated. The last one was also a rough one. He started to panic a little. -- At first we thought he joked. Then he suddenly went out. The rest of us had a blizz. It felt like flying, like a fighter pilot. -- The adrenalin let us hover. Andy asked silently how it was. There was something he didn't want to tell us. --- By the fifth time Andy pulled everything together what he had. He had the time of his life there. He cried of joy. #rollercoaster #pushthrough #picture #beautifulsunset #havefun #timeofhislife #storywriting #story (at Gardaland) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bow1iwaB7US/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tosn9hfkljbm

When you don't have another 200 years to figure something out... It dot matter if it's a how to or what happened... - There probably was one there who can tell you something about. The question is are you listening or reading it. - Treasures are everywhere, you have to be curious and start the search. Even when you find the treasure map you aren't at your goal. - The most important part is to follow it. It can happen that the map is upside down... or there is no tree anymore and a pond is taking it's place. - You need to use everything you have to reach the treasure. Still you only are persistent when your pull or WHY is big enough. - Then it's a journey of joy... there will be setbacks... there will be doubts and fears... - Modern treasures are rarely a chest of gold... you may find some nuggets... but when you add them up and keep track of them... - The real treasures is life can form... Health... Relationships... Wealth... Happiness... - But what that means for someone... that's not our business... that's not our search and journey... - Some didn't even found there thing... - Just try some stuff... take that trip to that island... talk to the stranger... start you band... quit your job... - If this is too scary... listen to someone else who did it before... - Read that book that caught your attention... go on that journey in you mind... listen to your heart... that's anyway the place where it all begins... - Have an amazing day... stack these days to create your awesome life... #start #reading #journey #treasure #realtreasures #happiness #books #bookshelf #library #enjoylife https://www.instagram.com/p/BolJXYrBCLL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=unwlo7a58t3l

That was exactly the view Vivien was looking at when she heard a twig break.She looked to Peter with questions in her face. "Did you heard that" she asked. . Peter pulled out his earplugs "Hmm, what?" There was another noise in the woods. As something enormous was landing from a huge jump… They looked at each other and then at the direction of the noise. . Fifty minutes earlier the decided to go for a walk as they had some personal stuff to discuss. Both where a little nervous. What the other would say and how there future would look like? . Viviens tears where not dry on her cheek… when she started to run for her life… .
