Change
Posted in Business, Personal on 7 August 2007

We love routines and predictability even if we are not openly admitting it. They give us the feeling of security and being in control of issues. Still, we are only thinking that nothing changes while everything around us is in constant move and a state of flux. We just do not register incremental shifts—and therefore [...]

We are all after happiness but seldom find it but only for a few glances or passing moments.

Dynamics
Posted in Personal on 30 June 2007

Constant pace and action are not natural. One needs to relax and wind down as well. You cannot have music without silence. It takes a fine-tuned instrument to recognise when it is the time to blow hard and loud and when it is the time to give away and be quiet.
Peak performance is possible only [...]

Decentralised Society
Posted in Personal, Society on 27 June 2007

For a few centuries we have gotten used to a trend of centralisation in almost all aspects of our life. The centralisation of power, money, influence, businesses, professions, education, health-care, defence, and energy are only a few examples of the current way of the world. Fortunately things do not have to be this way in [...]

The Growth Paradigm
Posted in Business, Economics, Personal, Society on 2 June 2007

We focus on growth—it’s everything. Our current economy is based on the ever-expanding growth paradigm. It does not work without it. Our monetary base grows every year. Valuations need to grow, as well as profits and revenues. The society is driven by this growth mania.
And how do we do this? By producing and consuming more, [...]

An Opportunity Disguised as Distress
Posted in Personal on 7 February 2007

Is your life in distress – maybe your career, personal direction, relationships, work, or all the above? A cul-de-sac can be a major issue with no easy way out. Still, the answer might be closer than you have realised.

To Change Is Becoming
Posted in Fragments of Reality, Meditation, Personal on 28 April 2005

As long as there is something that changes, the quest is not
over. Anything that is not permanent and independent is still
becoming; it depends on its external circumstances and,
therefore, more or less reacts to these.
A constant state is independent of any outside events or
situations as well as any temporal fluctuations such as day or
night. [...]

Belief Structures
Posted in Belief System, Fragments of Reality, Personal on 27 April 2005

Our belief structures define who we are and how we interpret
the world. They are our point of view and allow us to view the
world through rose-colored glasses. We adjust the external
world according to our beliefs. Beliefs are our world, and they
are us. Hence they are very powerful and have a great impact
on us.

Temporal
Posted in Belief System, Fragments of Reality, Personal on 22 January 2005

Our life can be compared to a project. Projects have a begin-
ning and an end. Its definition states that it is not perma-
nent—it has a definitive life span. It starts, goes on, and ends.
A project has no purpose itself—it is only the means for
something. It has a purpose and it is used as the vehicle, [...]

Reverse Confidence
Posted in Experience, Fragments of Reality, Personal on 21 October 2004

Have you ever looked back on your life, thought about the
incidents and situations you faced in your life? Often, the
sudden and out-of-the-blue surprises that we are at first
shocked by and terrified to overcome later turn out to be
important turning points or stepping stones to something
else. They did serve a purpose and were necessary in our [...]
