Here comes the flood hiding treasures of opportunities

You have open the gate to let people in into your space.

Before you know it a flood of things burst into your environment and you do not know how to possibly order it all.

You already had a list of things to do you put your mind on.

Now you got stuff, new commitments, new projects, new follow up to deal with.
You feel quite overwhelmed.
You ask yourself why did you allow people to come your way.

Pause.

What had burst does not mean you have to change all your plans.
Feed them into your project plan, delegate, go slowly.

You will get there eventually.

And as the flood goes as you clear up a path for it, you will find treasures of opportunities your way.

Finding a partner in the making

I love working on projects. I love working with others.

Others got inspired and joined us to develop a taster and full day workshop on Money. After the taster...

Kidnapper?

A kidnapper is a person who abducts someone and holds them captive, typically to obtain a ransom. There are many kidnappers in one life. Those who love you may be you holding you captive until all is gone. Your work is too taking away your childhood dream so you can keep running on the treadmill. A tree is too, it gives you air. Cut it, you may die. Find and name your kidnapper and weight whether you shall escape or stay. Remember though as you live one another emerge because the definition of yourself does not exist, you are dependent on others and the environment you are in.
