A Happy New Year 2019 to all of you out there!
May your courage be rewarded in 2019!
Only when a couple of people told me that they would not have dared to do as I did (like improvising songs in French in the streets of the Languedoc and the Provence), I realised that there was some bravery involved quite a few times in my 2018. I do not consider myself particulary courageous. Hence I’m glad I did all those things without being fully aware of the potentially bad consequences – and lucky enough that things turned out so well in hindsight. Nevertheless, I learned a lesson from that:
Growing your courage is like exercising your muscles: The more you do it, the stronger they get and you can achieve bigger goals step by step.
This is not really rocket science, I know. But given plenty of people resolve to go to the gym regularly these days and then give up on their resolution sometime during the second week of January, I might as well print that as quote on a t-shirt and sell it, anyway! 😉
Have a brave and cheerful 2019!
Drop me a line!
Any brave or unconventional acts you plan for the upcoming year? Let me know in a comment (just the odd “Hello, I’m still alive!” will do, too, of course). I really appreciate reading from you!
