When Gonzo the sad looking clown,
looked up he saw Donald look down.
And down in this pool
he thought: "Who's the fool?
I'll stay here 'til he's falling down."

The hardest habit to build
is not discipline.

It is honesty.

Honesty about what is working.
Honesty about what is not.
Honesty about whether effort is creating outcomes.

Because once you tell the truth,
change becomes unavoidable.

Measure less by intention.

Measure more by evidence.

Then build from reality.

If I Could Instantly Master Any Skill, It Would Be Communication

What skill would you choose if you could master it instantly? For me, it would be communication. The ability to express thoughts clearly, connect with people, and build meaningful relationships is one of the most valuable skills anyone can possess. In this personal reflection, I share why communication matters so much, how it impacts everyday life, and why mastering it could open doors to endless opportunities for growth and connection.

The Third Sight

If there are storms in the night that I did not hear, did they appear? They were predicted but did not wake me.

As a child, I would put my hands over my eyes and say, “You can’t see me.” What is this need to discount what I can not see with my own eyes?

Not – I think therefore I am. Rather, I see. Therefore, the world, the other, you, exist.

The eyes are indeed a light. But vision is more than the jumbled contents of an optometrist’s eye chart.

Can second sight be learned? Or is it a gift given to a few?

I wonder if there is a third sight – the ability to see beyond the veil and yet not be blind to what is right in front of us.

For inner sight, divorced from physical existence, is merely narcissistic navel gazing. And vice versa, incessant attention to the outer without inner reflection is tantamount to the blind leading the blind.

Some blindness is healed gradually. Some immediately after the laying on of hands. Some after the smearing on of spit and mud.

Some of us never have our sight restored.

Awareness acknowledges that things are not always what they appear.

And that I am always in need of clearer sight.

So the next time someone tells you that thinking about death is toxic or negative, ask yourself. Is it really the thought of death that terrifies you — or is it the terrifying possibility that you haven't actually started living?

Ich glaube nicht mehr an die Geschichte vom Käfig

Es gibt keine Gitterstäbe, die ich anfassen könnte, keinen Widerstand, der mir entgegenkommt, wenn ich drücke.

Keep Going: “Dear 20-Year-Old Me”

If I could send a message back to my 20-year-old self, it would be simple: keep going. Life won't always unfold according to plan, and there will be moments of doubt, failure, and uncertainty. But every challenge, lesson, and setback will help shape the person you're meant to become. This heartfelt reflection explores the wisdom that comes with time and the importance of trusting the journey, embracing growth, and never giving up on yourself.

Wir wissen es. Die Frage ist nicht, warum wir nicht handeln. Die Frage ist, was wir dringlich nennen – und was wir dahinter verstecken, ohne es so zu nennen.

We know. The real question is not why we do not act. The real question is what we call urgent – and what we hide behind it without calling it that.
