Today is one of those days when I think too much.

I have three mantra words. They are openness (open-minded, inquisitive, non-judging), presence (be here and now) and gratitude. To me that’s a great mindset. Sometimes they are hard to follow, there are days like today when I do expect much more of myself – making a bigger difference in the world.

Days like these pass, in a larger context they are simply minor bumps in the road. The last days I have watched some videos and listened to some podcasts. What I took from them was this that can be handy to get back to where I want to be.

  • Stay inquisitive! Curiosity might have killed the cat but it drives both learning and change.
  • Be present and grateful!
  • See and create magic!
  • Dare to be messy! (days like today and failing)
  • Be the best you can be!

What are your tricks to get back to your place of strength?
