Emotionsmanagement: Umgang mit destruktiver Energie im Unternehmen, und wann wird dies zu einer zentralen Führungsaufgabe? Wenn: Die Unternehmenskultur gleicht Dantes Inferno, Köpfe rollen, Mitarbeiter verschwinden über Nacht, werden plötzlich langzeitkrank, es herrscht ein Klima der Angst, narzisstische Haltungen werden unterstützt und sogar gefördert und die allgemeine Grundmotivation gleicht einer flachen Kurve beim Elektrokardiogramm. Aber, Nota […]

Grow through adversity and what we can learn from lobsters. I was inspired by Rabbi Abraham J. Twerski, MD (A lifelong Process Growing up) when writing this text.

From the Egg to the Chick

Growing inner strength and breaking the surface with the egg and the chick analogy. In an egg, the hard part is on the outside, the shell, and the soft part is on the inside (the white and the yolk). The shell prevents the liquid it contains from slopping out before a chick has had time […]

“The same boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg.” We study successful people because we want to get their results.

On the awareness of accepting
premium
One day you feel unbeatable, and on the other day, you feel worthless, so far from achieving something, listening to the inner whisper: I should be more balanced, I have low self-esteem, I should be more solid.

Fact is, we don’t like it when unpleasant thought and emotions enter our house. But negative thoughts do not come to hurt but help us evolve in the way of freedom and inner balance. Sometimes negative thoughts assail us out of nowhere without warning. They enter our home in the form of self-accusations, self-criticism or […]
