Auf Wiedersehen 2009 (in my head...)

8 AM in Brooklyn. 5 AM in San Francisco. 2 PM in Mannheim. December 31st 2009. Time to reflect.

2009 war ein gutes Jahr.
But then, all years seem good in retrospect. I am blessed with a great life. I am very healthy, which is the greatest gift.

My 'work' has been OK. I love coaching and want to do more of it. I am not sure if the 'recession' has affected my business. So far, the recession has been nothing but a phantom for me. I have heard, read, talked about it, but not witnessed it for myself. Lucky, I know.

This year I made an effort to tell 3 of my closest friends how I really feel about them. A kind of love letter for Christmas. That is very gratifying. I love to make people tear up. It's not a mean thing at all - it's just so nice to see that I touch them right to the heart.

One of my proudest moments: breaking my squash racket by playing. It had been over 10 years since I played the last time. I feel so 'sporty' breaking equipment through sheer force.

Band of the year for me: Phoenix. Lisztomania makes me happy.

Movie: Up, District 9.

Book: Meines Vaters Land.

Biggest accomplishment: Creating and leading my first workshop.

Missed opportunity: Get back into running.

As for plans for 2010: I want to laugh a lot, be relaxed. Really enjoy the moment and appreciate more.
I want my coaching business to soar. And I want to start to work on my long term plan to have a place in Berlin and Brooklyn. I love both places.

For all of you who read this, I wish peace of mind, awareness and a warm feeling in your belly.

We are all connected and LOVE is the awareness that we are!




Frohes neues Jahr, happy new year! And happy every moment to you.
