I've been off the grid for a number of years, leading the "normal" life. Steady job. Paying the bills. Finding a partner in crime.
But it's time to make some changes. The job will have to stick around for a while, so no major life-altering decisions ahead just yet. However, what about a creeping revolution one step at a time?
Bear with me. Have you heard of the Big Five for Life
? The five things that you want to achieve in your life before handing over the spoon? Well, jumping of a cliff? You know what I mean. I've read the book, loved it, but haven't really succeeded in figuring out my exact five things.
In case you've never met me, here's the overview: Ran off for a number of times to flee the country, supposedly to figure out what to do with my life. Loved the experience! Returned to Germany, bartended at a charmingly run-down Irish pub in central Cologne. Met the man of my dreams at the bar, where he was talking with my colleague about motorbikes while drinking soda. I was immediately attracted :o)Fast forward three years and here I am, with my beautiful list of (more or less) concise goals, putting myself up for the challenge to actually achieving them. By now this list is hopefully visible to your right :o)
Be warned - I am somewhat of a structure freak, so expect lots of lists and mindmaps!
Hope you're enjoying the ride :o)
