What is your goal in life?

Not your job, how much money you make, your title, who you marry, or your successes and failures. People that are looking for that path never get unmotivated, bored, blocked. Looking for that path fuels your inner energy. If you make that path enjoyable, meeting new people, visiting new places, learning new skills, you can feel truly fulfilled all along the way. Now, what are you going to do to achieve your goal in life today?

Very well known and delicious ice creams. I could not believe my eyes. The queue went over the corner. Expected waiting time: between 30 and 45 min. The square was full of people. No doubt, brilliant marketing campaign. If you already discover the trick around Santa and the Three Wise Men, you probably know that...
Last year, talking with a big guy in a big company, he showed me their offices. “Look at all the meetings,” he said. “They’re working hard.” As a consultant now, I’m always curious and put into test what I’ve learned the hard way through the years. And let me tell you some data. Studies show that the average employee is only truly productive for about 60% of the workday. In office jobs that translates to roughly 2 hours and 53 minutes of focused work out of 8 hours. Same hours. Much less real...
