An introduction to values – and…
…my book! I have decided to embark on my lifelong dream: to write a book. I’ve thought long and hard about what kind of book I wanted it to be and then one night it just hit me: Values. In a world managed by likes and popularity it seems too me that we have lost […]
2018
2018 has been many things. It has been a year I most certainly can look back on and be grateful for, but it has also been the year that helped me grow in the most painful way. 2018 has taught me many things and given me many things to be grateful for. But it is […]
Love is perishable.
A strong statement, I know, because we are all fed with the ideal of unconditional love. Which is very much real, but unconditional doesn’t happen over night. Unless it’s your children I guess. Unconditional love doesn’t mean the lack of hardships either. Unconditional love doesn’t mean that we don’t have to nourish or feed it, […]
How to find motivation.
Happy Tuesday readers, I’ve been dwelling on this motivation-thing since yesterday and I think it’s time we look into it a tad more serious than all this happy-snappy-rainbow bullshit that overflows my instagram feed (and probably yours as well). Aren’t people tired of pretending to be motivated all the time? And what is it, really? […]

“Every time I thought I was being rejected from something good, I was actually being re-directed to something better” Dr. Steve Maraboli said. I read that today and found infinite truth in it. Come to think of it, that’s how life works. I mean, even though I don’t remember, I’m pretty sure being born is […]
If I cut you off, chances are, you handed me the scissors.
Today I’m extremely pissed off. My day has been the definition of a blue Monday. To be honest, I’m actually sad and hurt, but knowing myself I tend to lash that out in anger. Not so frequently anymore, but today I really feel it. It’s probably because it really got me deep in there. I’m […]
Greetings from Trondheim.
Right now I’m in Trondheim Norway, enjoying a beer and my book at a busy bar in the city centre. I am by myself, enjoying being at it’s fullest. I had a bit of a slow morning, but in the end got myself down to the city centre for a walk, a bit of sighting […]
The judgement detox.
Judgement. Taste it. Taste the lingering bitterness upon your lips. If it doesn’t give you a bad taste in your mouth, it is because the ego has sugarcoated the word for you for how ever long you’ve been unaware of the bitterness it brings to your life. Recently I picked up a book by Gabrielle […]
