None of the topics I have had in mind for the next couple of days feels like I want to put it down today. But what should I do when nothing feels right?! – Something else.

Day 15 – “When Snails Climb Trees”
One day I watched a little yellow snail – whole, living, with house and everything – hanging upside-down on the branch of a huge cherry tree in our garden…
Day 14 – “Beyond the Beginning”
Do you remember, or maybe just right now you feel it: You honestly want to change, BUT there is so much keeping you from it: No idea what to do exactly, fear of failure and ridicule, the conviction of “not being good enough and knowing enough”, not having enough time to finally start doing it; the list goes on and on.
Day 13 – “Reality is a Community-Project”
Reality. A big topic for philosophers of all ages. Although I’m not one of them, I’d like to throw in my two pennies.
Day 11 – “Perseverance”
Ideas are easily conceived. Words are often spoken lightly. However, pouring an idea into a manifested form takes practice, grit, passion and perseverance.

Wow, that was an insanely freezing and refreshing cold shower in the forest!

Day 5 – “Dead Shell or Living Body”
Whatever activity you do, you can do it in two ways: Either without any idea behind it or filled with a certain intention.
Day 4 (Afterglow)
Did you ever experience one of those moments, when you where totally immersed in your activity and the flow just took hold of you?
Day 4 – “Simply not good enough”
Can you relate to a similar story-plot from your own life?
You wanted to do something you were reaaally excited about. You surfed around on the web and found other people that were already doing what you want to do. They’ve been in it already for years and display a high degree of professionalism. And then it happens…
