Fragment
Foreword
After a career of working as a psychologist connecting through direct, face to face dialogue with my clients, I now face the challenge of connecting with you through the written word.
Without the luxury of your direct feedback I hope to get my message across as an invitation to learn. I aim to offer gradually more expansive and inclusive information so you can learn at your own pace.
Learning, I have always loved it. I always and still have a drive to ‘go beyond’. This attitude has presented me with a lot of knowledge throughout my personal and professional endeavours. And I think, a lot of applicable wisdom too.
This ‘ongoing learning attitude’ has also offered me lots of reasons to consider stopping with this endlessly ongoing ‘going beyond’. I have been confronted by many emotions, feelings, thoughts and health issues that have made losing momentum and ‘staying put’ for a while seem very attractive. So when I finally took my long longed for sabbatical I only found myself in an even bigger whirlpool of inspiration and added eagerness to go out into the world and go beyond the familiarity of my psychological practice room.
I tried to stay put, believe me. But I could not get away with it, even being my own ‘boss’ in my own practice and also during my sabbatical, I continued to have the drive to include more and more into my life. I guess I am endowed with a very strong enthusiasm and drive to make things ‘work out for the best’ for myself and for others too.
I love making things work as transparently and fluidly as possible. I love being practical in mutual inspiration, creating the best unity possible while interconnecting the presented diversity of life.
I would love to take you on a guided tour of possibilities and obstacles. So you can assemble your own cocktail of choices necessary for living in a healthy, happy, meaningful and fulfilled way as far as you possibly can.
Reaching out
I am reaching out to myself to evolve from a mainly psychological approach to include my interests and experience in spirituality, health, learning, thriving, and making a meaningful impact on the world together. I am convinced the best way to do so is by reaching out to you in your role as a participant in the workforce.
I am reaching out to you as a whole, unique being, wanting to live happily and to thrive together with your loved ones.
I am reaching out to you to participate in the process of making this world a better place for all to prosper.
I am reaching out to you in your capacity of being a group member, an unmissable part of an organisational whole: if you don't thrive the organisation will lose and you will lose too. When you and your organisation join forces the effect can be huge. It will at the very least, be bigger than anything you could achieve on our own
Every change begins with one person, you.
Every change brings further development and inclusiveness.
You can take a break or stop your evolvement and involvement whenever you want.
But why stop too soon? I invite you to read on and align and apply this small book to your personal situation and purpose. I hope it gives you a taste for more.
