HOW TO LIGHT YOUR FIRE, WITHOUT THE BURNOUT “If

HOW TO LIGHT YOUR FIRE, WITHOUT THE BURNOUT

“If you don’t listen to your body’s whispers, you are going to have to listen to it screaming.”

After two car accidents, two whiplashes and two burnouts, I was forced to find a sustainable way to manage my energy, so that I could keep doing the things I love.

Around me, I see many entrepreneurs struggling with the same thing: they keep going until their reserved are depleted, and then they push... just a little bit more.

Avoid burnout by managing your work and passion projects in a balanced and sustainable way. Focus on your long term goal instead of short term successes by learning to listen to the subtle signs of your body.

A weekend in Naples with my friend @annalizavk. For me Naples is the most Italian, the most chaotic and lawless, the most authentic experience. Like going back in time.
Meeting real people, strong, stubborn, warm and with a unique sense of humor. And did I mention the food?!? 😋
If you have the chance, go experience this! 🇮🇹

ZO SCHRIJF JE EEN BOEK! Ik heb de boeken geschrev

ZO SCHRIJF JE EEN BOEK!

Ik heb de boeken geschreven waarvan ik zelf had gewild dat ze bestonden toen ik mijn eerste boeken schreef. Pas na 30 boeken begreep ik precies waar de hobbels, vastlopers en slimme shortcuts zaten in het schrijfproces, en heb ik alles op papier gezet.

Dit zijn de boeken waar ik het meest trots op ben: ‘Zo schrijf je een boek!’ en het bijbehorende werkboek.

Waarom? Omdat deze twee boeken jou kunnen helpen jouw droom van een eigen boek waar te maken. Om jouw verhaal op papier te zetten en te delen met de wereld. Zonder de worsteling met het schrijfproces die veel schrijvers ervaren.

Tien stappen, praktische tips, voorbeelden, inspiratie, veelgemaakte fouten en succesverhalen: ik durf echt te beweren dat dit het meest complete boek + werkboek is over een boek schrijven.

Wil je liever dat ik het proces ‘van idee toe boek’ persoonlijk uitleg en al je vragen beantwoord? Doe dan mee aan de live online ‘Van idee tot boek’ workshop op 7 dec. (Je ontvangt het boek en werkboek er overigens bij cadeau!)

Nieuwsgierig? Link in bio.

PS Laat me aub weten waar jouw boek over gaat!

BOOK RECOMMENDATION 👀

📖 Malcolm Gladwell – Outliers

One of my favorite authors discusses the secret of success in this book. Malcolm reveals that we pay far too much attention to what successful people are like, and too little attention to where successful people are from: their culture, their family, and their generation. Gladwell examines how the careers of Bill Gates and the performance of world-class football players are alike; what top fighter pilots and The Beatles have in common; why so many top lawyers are Jewish; why Asians are good at math; and why it is correct to say that the mathematician who solved Fermat's Theorem is not a genius.

Outliers is about misfits, aptitude, good luck and the power of repetition: the 10,000 hour rule.

Which book inspires you? 😁

THIS WEEK 🚂 After an amazing week in Iceland

THIS WEEK 🚂

After an amazing week in Iceland and then a busy and wonderful week in Amsterdam, I am about to embark on a weird trip.

Because I bought this 3 month Interrail pass that I still haven't used, I wanted to take the train back to Puglia from Amsterdam, visiting friends and places I like on the way.

But next weekend I am meeting a friend in Naples and there is just not enough time to do everything. So I found a compromise.

This is what my schedule looks like:

Monday:
lunch with @kblanqua and personally deliver his @tinytrullo olive oil in Antwerp
Dinner with my ‘Survivor’/‘Expeditie Robinson’ buddy @marnix_allegaert and his family in Kuurne.

Tuesday:
train to Paris, to enjoy the city and buy my favorite #marriagefreres tea.

Wednesday:
fly to Rome to stay with my friend @annalizavk

Friday:
Annaliza and I train to Naples for two days in that amazing city

Sunday:
train back home to Puglia 🌳

I am traveling first class, so hopefully I will have some time to work as well.

To be continued... 🙂

THE SECRET TO HAPPINESS 👀 “The secret to hap

THE SECRET TO HAPPINESS 👀

“The secret to happiness is freedom and the secret to freedom is courage”
- Thucydides

First let’s take a look at the definition freedom:
The power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint Some define freedom as the absence of necessity, coercion, or constraint. Or as the liberation from slavery, or they use the word unrestricted.

But that is still based on breaking away from restrictions or other limitations. I think that true freedom is not moving away from something. Maybe it’s not even moving towards something, but rather moving in a free space. Independence. Choices. Possibilities.

And in order to receive that kind of freedom, you need to have courage. The courage to ask for help. The courage to step out of your comfort zone. The courage to speak up for yourself. The courage to take risks. The courage to let go.

What does freedom mean to you? ✨

THE MAGIC HAPPENS WHEN YOU GIVE UP 🌟 I have fo

THE MAGIC HAPPENS WHEN YOU GIVE UP 🌟

I have found many times that only when you stop trying so hard, a breakthrough can happen.

On this trip to #iceland with a bunch of location independent entrepreneurs, our main goal was to see the famous Northern Lights. We booked a basecamp in the deserted interior of the island with ‘northern light spotters’(!), had a private guide and monster-jeep ready to take us to wherever the lights would pop up, whenever.

Unfortunately the 4 days we spent there, were so rainy and windy that we hardly saw ANY light, let alone Northern Lights... We did see waterfalls, glaciers and other beautiful things, in the pouring rain. In the end we were already happy when it wasn't raining, delighted to have a few minutes of sunlight. And we were rewarded with a beautiful rainbow at the end of our trip. 🌈

We tried to tell ourselves and each other that at least we tried, that we could not force nature to show the Northern Lights just because we wanted to see them so badly. We had to content ourselves with the other beautiful things we had seen. 🙏

We drove back to Reykjavik for a delicious 7 course tasting dinner in a trendy restaurant. After that, most people went to a bar, but I decided to go to my hotel room to catch up on some sleep.

When I got to my room, I was annoyed that the heating was on. I tried to open the window, but the curtains were in the way. Then I discovered that I even had a balcony!

Surprised I stepped outside and looked up at the stars. I saw something move. Are those clouds? It must be the wind. What is that greenish color? It must be those city lights reflecting on the clouds. But the clouds look really weird.. That could not be… OMG! It’s the Northern Lights! On a rainy day, in the city! I could not believe my eyes!

With one eye on my phone and one eye on the sky, I alerted my friends via whatsapp. I admired the Northern Lights from my balcony; they were truly magical. Like somebody in heaven lights a candle and slowly weaves the light in the night sky. ⭐️🌟💫

We finally got what we came here for, but only after we gave up.

Do you have examples of something you gave up and then it came to you?
