I spend a lot of time exploring the world and I’am grateful to have experienced some of the most exclusive and beautiful places on earth... Read More...

Last selfie of 2021 and some lessons I learned at a young age, I would love to share….
#2022 #lifelessons #share #happynewyear

1.
Don’t complain or you are old, or feel old, unless you are 80+
I was with my grandmother, when she was 90 and I was 30, feeling already quit old, passing my thirties… we looked at a picture where she was 60 and she said: “oh, look, there I was still young!” This hit me as a bomb, because I realized, how we think, it’s al perception, it’s just the angle from where you look at it. And at that point I made an agreement with myself, not feeling old before I get 80. (And maybe at 80, I still feel young 😄, because I’m not 90 yet!)

2.
When somebody gives an opinion about something that belongs to you, or maybe even about you, don’t let this affect you!
Their opinion is not about “that thing or about you” it’s all about themselves, their mood, the way they think and perceive things at that moment!
My grandmother said my second hand Indonesian table was ugly, just when I bought it. I was slightly disappointed, cause I liked it so much, it was an unique piece of table.
Three years later, at my big birthday party, the same table was full of nice food and candles.
Of course she was invited and said: “What a beautiful table, is it new?”
🙈
So please don’t let negativity of other people affect you 🙏🏻
It’s all about them, not about you 😘

3.
Trust your intuition. We people tend to forget we have a third eye, the one in our stomach…you might think I’m crazy, but, the examples are too many to mention. If it comes to your gut feeling, listen to it!
People’s words don’t count, really, I have been lied to, by the person I loved most, the person who should have my back. Well, it happened more than once, with several people.
Now, I usually don’t ask people anymore for an explanation of their behavior, because some people can’t be even honest to themselves, so how can they be honest to you or me?

Live by your own truth! Live by your gut feeling! And do the things you like and love! Live your live how you want it!
And avoid people who don’t have “you”, as their best interest!

Wish you all a very Happy New Year!😘😘😘
