It might happen, that, while trying to be and stay a nice person you say yes, when you are asked for a favor.Doing that it can be quite hard to stay focused on what you really want. It might even be difficult to even serve those you promised to because you keep getting distracted by other who you also promise a yes.

happy#061 – keep your promise

  • by

I believe that you will not be truly happy people if you are not a trusted and reliable person, to yourself and others. If you keep letting other people down on your promises. If you don’t keep the promises you make to yourself you won’t honor yourself, you won’t like yourself. The bet think about being honorable is that is 100% up to you wether you are or you are not.

happy#058 – a culture of learning

  • by

What do you think? How hard is it to personally grow without learning.I see how different, kids, teenager and later even grown ups behave when they never learnt how to learn. So do yourself and you kids the favor and create a culture of learning. Stay young, stay curious, stay foolish!

happy#056 – powercut

  • by

I have the chance o experience quiet often how dependent we ar on regular power supply. Last weekend we had no power for three days which makes us have some troubles even here. That is when I realized that it is not having or not having something that give you freedom but options that do. To learn to go without (fill in yourself 😉 increases your options. Increased options can increase your freedom. Increased freedom… Read More »happy#056 – powercut

Driving on a normal road in Mikumi, I saw Zebra, Buffalo and Elephants next to road and started to wonder. What can we do to preserve the last beauties of the earth.

happy#053 – the lion in us

  • by

On our way back from an adventurous game drive in Ruaha national park, we first met a whole family of African elephants. Later, outside the park shortly before the village that we are camping in, a lion crossed our street. About 100m meter in front he appeared from the woods on the right, stepped on the road, stopped, looked at us and disappeared in the woods on the left.This picture made think a lot about… Read More »happy#053 – the lion in us

happy#052 – democracy

  • by

Nowadays I often hear say that we don’t really live in a democracy because there is no real choice. I very clearly want to disagree. Just the other day we had to American guests at the lodge and they were pointing out thing that are not going right in America. With a lot of their concern if not most they were right.But I absolutely did not agree with the consequence they drew from their frustration.They believe… Read More »happy#052 – democracy

Do you think it is a blessing or a curse that our life is dominated by electronics.How do you use it, or does it use you?Think about the episode of yesterday. Today you can chose so much. You can also choose to which degree you will use technology.I think what helps most is when you arrange your life without technological gadget and make yourself clear that you don’t need them, maybe once a week or… Read More »happy#050 – technology

happy#049 – master or slave

  • by

150 years ago it was on you to decide to decide on which side of history you were standing. You were born a slave or a master and there was almost no way to change that. Fortunately that changed and most people in modern society are able to chose were and how they work.Today often I hear people that they are treated or feel like slaves… They think, they don’t have a choice in jobs,… Read More »happy#049 – master or slave

happy#047 – start at the end

  • by

Often we learn to be realistic. We analyze status quo and try to figure out what we can do with what we already have. Sometimes and I think most of the times companies and entrepreneurs act the same. The invent a product or have an idea, produce and then find somebody to sell it, instead of thinking about the consumers needs first. I learned in marketing to start with the needs of the customer instead… Read More »happy#047 – start at the end

happy#046 – expectation management

Clear language can make a huge difference. In your communication with others as well as in the communication with yourself. The way you talk, you direct your mind and the way you think. Your behavior will follow your thinking and you will talk accordingly.If you talk clearly other people will know what they can expect. You might risk a direct no but you can react immediately and prevent misunderstanding which would lead to frustration at… Read More »happy#046 – expectation management

happy#044 – don’t try, do

  • by

Thinking is a way of directing your unconscious mind. Be careful what and how you think. There are words that direct you mind in one or in another direction. The word try is one of them. Be careful when and if at at all you use it. Better you do it, than to try it.
