Month: February 2024

  • Transformation

    Describe a phase in life that was difficult to say goodbye to. For me, it was challenging to say goodbye to my old self. It was my transformation phase, a period where nothing worked out for me, specifically in the area of my career. I had to let go of…

  • Take a Dare

    If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why? Actually, what I would ban is not a word but a phrase. Many years ago, my boss told me during my apprenticeship: “There is no I can’t, but I don’t want.“ I found it…

  • Debut

    What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months? My biggest challenge in the next six months is publishing my book, which will be my first complete book. It is a book for children/teenagers, so it’s extraordinary for me since I also worked as a German…

  • Dream Big

    What advice would you give to your teenage self? I would say to my teenage self never to stop dreaming big and to chase after these dreams no matter what. Because nothing is impossible in this life as long as you have a strong will, concentration, and vision and do…

  • It’s all about optimism

    Who are your favorite people to be around? I prefer to be around genuinely optimistic-thinking, happy, and humorous people with whom I can joke and, at the same time, have deep-thinking exchanges. These people can secure an energetic, positive, and inspirational atmosphere. The reason is that I personally try to…

  • Patience

    Share one of the best gifts you’ve ever received. Well, the best gift I have ever received is from God, the Universe, or however someone calls this higher power that exists somewhere, and it’s patience. Oh, yes, I really can say that I have had and still have a lot…

  • Not a denial, just a delay

    Something on your “to-do list” that never gets done. To be honest, I get all my to-do tasks done. Since my teenage time, I have developed a sense of responsibility. Sometimes, it took an obsessive tone, and I did my duties immediately. Otherwise, I would feel guilty. The cringe thing…
