It's Friday night. Your life starts here...


Probably you know someone with this kind of life …
But what a life!

If you were busy during the past week days, the weekend is nothing to compare with.

So many things to do!

You fill up your agenda with sparkling events, cool places and even cooler people.

You dress up and put on a big smile. You are the envy for your Facebook friends with the 5*programme.

You manage to visit all the birthday parties, lunches, dinners, you have a lot of interesting talks or maybe a 5*date.

On Sunday evening you cannot resist any longer your best friend, the bed, feeling excited and exhausted all together, you bury the tiredness in the deep sleep.

Next day you wake up and it's Monday!
Then you start again with that rehabilitation programme: "I can love Monday … but I won't.
Week after week, month after month, year after year.

Eventually you book a tropical or adventurous holiday to escape and relax visiting 7 countries in 2 weeks.

It all sounds pretty busy and very important but actually you are killing your time.

And your 5* programme it's a simple distraction for your life sucking routine.

The worst thing is that you did so much yet nothing feels right.

You know what?

STOP for a moment.

For Your sake, OBSERVE.

You are just running a rat race but in different lifestyle.

Sometimes it can provide an extreme pleasure.

But as all the drugs, in long term, you will need higher and higher dose.

And one thing will not change ever, the day has only 24 hours.

The busier you are, the faster your run out of Your own time!

One day you will have to admit it, this is not what you have expected.

So you had the courage to launch yourself to the wild river of life expecting the currents take you as fast as possible wherever you wanted.
But they didn't.
For whatever reason which now doesn't matter.
They let you down.
Somehow you fell deep and got stuck.

What now?

Probably you might admit you need a help.
Here it is what you will find in the market of help:

- Society: "We need to collect funds and find the cure for your rare disease. By the time, take some aspirins."

- Psychologist: "Make yourself comfortable on this fancy coach and explain me why you think you are stuck."

- Facebook friend: That's really bad news dude :-( Hopefully things will get better :-) Sorry, have to go…:-| Talk to you soon! :-*

- Family: "I told you not to jump".

Having seen the scenario, is someone going to help you out from that mud?

It's hard, but admit it.

You got into this mud by yourself.

You actually don't need a medicine, nonsense talk or a blame on you.

You only need a nudge!

It can come from a random person, your enemy, boss,  damned accident … anything that can help you experience that nomadic moment.

What does it feel like?

Well, I bet you have already felt it and not even noticed it at all!

For example, do you remember when you turn adult from being a teenager? I guess you don't know the exact day and hour when it happened, it just happened and you moved on.

It will not distract you like something awesome, super-attractive and exciting.

It's much more. It won't distract you.

It's the momentum when you realise you don't need to get unstuck anymore because you are already running your journey which is pretty cool with all that landscape you have seen so far.

You just moved on.

That simple.

Don't look for the change, you will never find it.

Instead, do it.

Do it frequently and do it your way! You will have to move your a** though.

A spontaneous, constant and steady movement towards one direction.

Like in a pooh stick game. You are the swimming stick and as long as you don't get stuck anywhere you will be able to run and have fun.

But if eventually you get stuck, don't think too much about the mud around you, simply continue, give yourself a nudge, a nomadic moment and getaway from that sh*t to the next level.

Life is still a game.

5 Rules to follow in the middle of the muddy life experience

1. Relax and have fun for your sake. Mud bath is good for your skin, muscles ...

2. Read with open eyes and in between the lines. Read people.

3. Run towards one direction, not in circles.

4. Re-do things you don't like, don't re-think about them.

5. Remember, life can be simpler if you do things simpler way.


Actually change doesn't hurt that much as you might think.

Negative thoughts and complaints make things even worse than the failure in itself.

If you want to keep alive, stop thinking too much.

Imagine you are in front of a hungry lion, would you think too much about your situation?

No!

You would react immediately, hopefully...

So, ready to get unstuck or are you still enjoying that mud bath?

You will never find your home if you do this


Where is home?


You left your hometown many years ago.

You discovered new world, new people and new life.

You revealed yourself to the world.

You played hard and you got your recompense.

You dreamed about a better life but somehow it tastes differently than you imagined.

You miss those with who you grew up and they miss you too.

You know you have to follow your own journey.

Sometimes it's hard but it's life.

And out there, you are by yourself.

You learnt to fly.

Every time you go back home, the original one, everything and everyone have changed.

Things are not the same anymore.

And the reason it's you.

You are not the one you used to be.

You changed too much.

The life has shaped you into an independent and strong person, too independent and too strong.

Now you see the things from a different point of view, from the distance.

You are a spectator, not a player anymore. At least, not at home.

So where are you going to settle down and create your little nest?

Probably you will never settle down and if you do so after time you will feel something missing.

The adventure of the pure life.

The pleasure of the journey and not knowing where the next destination is.

You, the nomad alive.

This is what happened to me when I decided to go back home after 11 years living abroad.
The result was devastating. I had to go through the hell of my past, my unclear future and finally got dropped out in the dull present. I felt I didn't belong to any place anymore.
I changed too much and realised I should keep living my life my way and let memories stay in the photo album not trying to raise them to life.
Once you decide to leave and live in different places, countries, continents, you will never ever have only one home. It's a long lasting side effect for the rest of your life. You will always feel you miss some place, some people, some experiences …
Why this is happening to you? Because you have just mastered to part your heart into the beauty of the nomadic life.
You need to continue your journey because it's where your home actually is

Behind every failure hides a wrong lesson


One of the best teachers I have ever had was at primary school.
She could explain the head breaking formulas in an easy and funny way.
Also she helped me discover the logical thinking I was supposed not to have and from almost suspended in Maths, I became one of the most brilliant students even at Uni. Thank you Mrs. K!
Unfortunately, I also had teachers who didn't understand what they were talking about and therefore no one did neither.

They probably gave me the wrong lesson for something which could be the right subject for me.

I am sure you know what I am talking about.

Life is not about bad experiences, life is about bad examples.

I personally hated the subjects which I couldn't understand and therefore memorise.

Reason why many students fail and human beings consider themselves not smart enough.

One of them was the geography.

Oh dear, the  world is so huge when you are 9!

All those capital cities, rivers, countries, continents, I guess I will have to visit them first to remember where they have hidden themselves on the map.

I think most of the world travellers were not that good at memorising geography. That's why they need to travel, to finally learn the suspended subject.
I used to ask too much and doubt about the green, brown and blue painting which was supposed to represent our world.
Now I can still use this excuse to absent from the theory lesson and say: I am going there and there because I need to check if that colourful map was right about it.

Another hard subject for me was the history.
My history teacher was a frog.
(Btw, have you tried to put an animal face to people during an important meeting?)
The frog cared a lot about Napoleon.
I think you can't explain what the war is until you experience it. And it must be terrible. So why on earth they want you to memorise all those horrible moments, exact number of murdered people and even worse the date of birth of the human assassin?
It's good enough to remember your birthday and the only numbers probably you want to remember at the age of 9 is how many days are left for holidays.

So basically, from the point of view of 9 year old kids, things are exciting and need to have an understandable meaning.
This aspect hasn't changed that much once turning into adults unless you had a bad lesson.
However, as a mature person you cannot blame the teacher anymore.
Because now you are your own teacher.
It's up to you if you speak to yourself clearly and make things understandable.
Or if you want to hide behind the complex theories and excuses that you can't do that and that because you are not qualified enough.

Then, learn it!

The theories don't work, they lie down written in the dusty books.

What really works are mistakes, which you did from trying it your own way.

And then doing new mistakes again and again.

It means you are learning new things. And guess what? You will remember it without the need to memorise everything.

That simple.
