2018 offered us an incredible journey with c/o Gerd . Getting to meet as many people as we do, talking and developing together. There is a reason we work in an industry that likes to take care of people.
What I am still struck by when I see and read is how we feel in our society. We live in one of the world's almost best places to live, yet so many people are feeling unwell. Burnout, mental illness and a range of stress-related illnesses are spreading mercilessly.
Of course, I don't have any solutions to this. I reflect, I think and I feel. In the best of worlds, I wish more people would just pull the handbrake. Decide that 2019 will be my year.
The only way we can prepare ourselves is to build ourselves from the ground up. Relax your breathing, disconnect from the demands, try to reboot your brain where we meet ourselves with good words and give ourselves positive conditions every day.
My personal mantra that came to me here at the beginning of the year is - "what opportunity does this give me". I want to apply it to both tough challenges and wonderful events. A tough challenge that comes at a sensitive stage in life can easily become draining, if we manage to see challenge as something that develops us, there are almost no limits to where we can reach.
