Catching up

A quick list of everything that happened since my last blog:

1. I went backpacking for 5 days from Mammoth to Yosemite. The first time backpacking EVER.
2. I had a life changing experience, taking a 3 day course: The Landmark Forum.
3. I developed an awesome workshop my coaching partner PJ Chan: From Dreaming to Doing.
4. Traveled to New York to hear U2 play in front 81 999 people, plus me.
5. I left the PC world and bought my first MacBook Pro - and LOVE it.
6. Made peace with my father and created the possibility for us to have a great loving and exciting relationship.

And that's all I can think of right now.

I feel great and productive and a lot of it has to do with everything I experienced in the last 7 or so weeks.

Backpacking was profound. For the first time I realized for myself what a great system the human body is. It was miraculous how fast it regenerated. A full day of hiking, with weight on your back...at night I felt tired and beat. My hips were tight and I ached. One night in a tent - crappy sleep with lots of interruptions (like BEARS), and still I would wake up refreshed and new the next morning.

The Landmark forum course changed my life in many ways. It really brought home the point that everything in my life is made up - that I am the one who decides what something means. And that there are a lot of 'stories' I just believe to be true. Just realizing this made me aware of the power I have in creating anything I want. And there was way more that was helpful to me. It is a 42 hour course after all and I will not even attempt to summarize it. If you are undecided about taking the class: take it! It is worth every penny.

Coming from a space of 'what's possible', it was a breeze to come up with our newest workshop: From Dreaming to Doing. We have so many exciting exercises and learning packed in this. It will make a big difference in people's lives and I am thrilled to be creating what is important to me and what has meaning....

The U2 concert was, as expected, outstanding. Being in a stadium with 82 000 people just blows my mind. I felt connected to the people, the music, the band and the causes U2 supports. I seem to feel that connection a lot when I go to visit our friends in Brooklyn. Connection rocks ;)

Mhm PC vs MAC - that was a big step for me. I made up that I can't spend the extra money for a MAC. After all I am from Germany and I was brought up in a frugal household. But after a more that frustrating experience with my 2 week old Dell, I had enough and converted. OMG! I am in a different world. A computer that works, is fast, beautiful...I could go on. All you Apple users - I know, I should have switched sooner.

The part of my father is worth another blog or a conversation...

I am glad I feel somewhat caught up. Thanks for reading!
