simplicity of happinessEssays about the Simplicity Of Happiness and living the life you love!
Again, I was surprised.
This was not the first time for me to visit Sahara in Morocco and visiting M‘Hamid lost a bit of the excitement of the first few times. Once I see the first dunes in the distance, it feels more like coming home to friends.
Ever tried to dance tango on your own? Difficult, right?
Not only is it difficult alone, but also when you don’t harmonize with your partner and/or one is trying to lead by pressure.
It is a silent cooperation that is based on a set of agreements. You set some boundaries for your joined experience and then you dance in harmony. It makes sense to decide beforehand if the dance will be polka or tango.
Most coachings are about reaching the next possible goal. Breaking it down in small reachable steps and setting the mindset to get started.
I am not interested in that. I don’t want to get paid for helping my clients to stay ordinary. I am looking for the extraordinary in you. I want to empower you to dream big and turn your dreams into your truth.
It feels like ages ago that I had the dream of creating a life I Iove. I read fiction and travel adventures and imagined to be brave enough to live through some of these adventures myself.
I like to see myself as a fearless adventurous guy. One, who leaves the known behind in search for the life I love.
I dream about all these different places I will visit and things I will do, but…
…sometimes I become fearful when I have a closer look at my plans. I back up because I fear it might go wrong once I am starting.
…and sometimes I become fearful once I get there. I am overwhelmed by the new situation and don’t know how to handle it. I back up to a known surrounding where I don’t feel as helpless.
Somehow this happens to me in all different situations. May the fear be about putting together a new adventure seminar, visiting a new interesting place, changing the place where I mainly live or sometimes just about publishing a new article, podcast or video.
For the longest time in my professional career I tried to be professional, not too sloppy, not too emotional, not too esoteric, not too spiritual.
I started as a Headhunter and realized I don‘t want to fill random positions for random people in random industries. I wanted to work for human beings and lead by living an extraordinary life myself.
I am a maximalist, that’s why I became a minimalist.
What? How does that make sense?
I think it does, although it took me more than 30 years to realize. As long as I can remember I could not get enough. It did not matter whether it was playing a game, a vacation I was on, a mountain I was hiking, stuff that I owned.
I just couldn’t get enough. I wanted more and got frustrated easily when I couldn’t get it.
I believe that a major reason for me to get frustrated was, that I never focused 100% on one thing. I could do everything in life, right? The older I grew the more I realized that I could also own everything that I was longing for.
It is now about one year that I am not actively working for ESCP Europe anymore. Although that I am already living my life and worklife relatively self-determined for some years now, I can tell you that it is a huge difference when nobody expects anything from you anymore.
Furthermore and quite important to me, did my son and his mother move so far away that I have absolutely no chance on seeing him on a regular basis anymore. In fact I have seen him only ones in the last 30 month.
Ich habe vor drei Wochen auf der DNX Manuel getroffen, der mich spontan abends für das Projekt “Get Your Wings” interviewt hat. Cooles Projekt.
There are several reasons behind my decision to provide coaching free of charge.
1. Desire to Help: I find fulfillment in assisting others, as it brings a sense of personal satisfaction. While it may seem altruistic, it’s worth acknowledging that as humans, we often find intrinsic joy in being of service to others.
2. Impact and Contribution: I aim to make a meaningful impact by sharing my knowledge. I believe in the power of investing in individuals who may not have the financial means but possess great potential. It’s akin to being a seed investor, sowing the seeds for future success.
3. Supporting Those in Need: Having experienced a period of financial constraints with abundant ideas, I recognize the importance of providing support to those who may not currently afford my services. This strategic generosity allows me to contribute to the growth of individuals who can benefit the most.
4. Effective Marketing: Offering free coaching serves as a powerful marketing tool. Recognizing the transformative nature of my coaching, I trust that those who experience it will remember and potentially return for future sessions. Additionally, satisfied individuals are likely to share their positive experiences, organically expanding my reach.
It’s essential to emphasize that this offering comes with no strings attached. The quality of the session and any subsequent actions are entirely in your hands. Attend with focus, be prepared, and decide what you want to derive from the experience.
Ultimately, this is a gift from me to you. No strings attached. The choice of what to do with it rests entirely with you.
I look forward to talk to you, Floh
