After the 4th day of walking through Sahara with my SAHARA experience IV group I recorded this episode covered in the shade of one of the few trees around. I caught a cold just before I left to Sahara which you might be able tell. Apart from that I was at peace with myself and the earth. If you ever feel, that you are too distracted in life and it hard for you to focus on what matters most to you,...

I recorded this interview a while ago with two amazing young women who run their own podcast called „the mind palace podcast“. Their show is dedicated to minimalism and the joy of less. The English-American team talked about podcasting, friendship, and shaping the future. JESSICA LYNN WILLIAMS is an artist and I am a lover of written word, both in reading and writing. She works as a freelance web...

So often I just get caught up in stuff I didn’t mean to do before. I don’t know how it is with you, but often that kind of stuff doesn’t do me any good. When I recognize that, I often think that… well, tomorrow is just another day. Now I had to realize that no matter how old you are, every day can be your last and I try to live up to best person I can possibly be. As I have been traveling with nom...

It makes so much sense to say things like: love people and use stuff, but every now and then it happens be quite hard to act accordingly. To get what you want it seems to be the easiest to manipulate and use other people. Isn’t that what everybody is doing. And the new car, new phone, new stereo, new snowboard you just bought and spent so much time working for the money to buy. Isn’t it normal to...

The realization that you will eventually lose everything that you ever value in your life might either lead to a depression or can make you enjoy every moment in life. Everything material object, even our bodies have a beginning and an end. Some things just last longer than others. One day either they or you are broken and it s up to you wether you suffer or the enjoy the time that you have. Links...

Have you ever thought about all the paper stuff that is in your cupboard? I talked so often about stuff you own and mentioned mostly clothes. But when you draw you attention to all the papers you own it can easily add up to several 100 pounds. Why do you keep it? Emotions? Important information? You can enjoy all of that when it is digitalized as well. I am going to present you some tools that can...

Neither are kids in control of their life nor do they think they are. Often they decide based on the situation and their feelings. And then they grow up. They learn, that mankind is dominated the nature and that we are in control. That it is just a question of right technique. Not being in control is soon regarded as a weakness and failure. The fear to lose control can become so great that some pe...

One of the events that can make the biggest difference for the positive in your life is a decent FAILURE. Fail often and fail early. And then? Keep learning from it. What makes a failure a failure is yourself. You could also regard it as a feedback from the universe and develop further. Failures can become your life’s greatest learning experiences. Look at at what you thought were failures and sta...

I am traveling a lot and I see how much traveling helps my mind and my understanding to develop. When I open the news or even facebook I read about people whose biggest desire it seems to be to shut down the borders and isolate them from the rest of the world. As if this would change anything for the better. Therefor this episode is a pledge to open the borders. Not only in your heads ;-) It is th...

Whatever your goal is to achieve in life, you wont reach it if you don’t have enough energy. No matter how hard you train, you will refill energy when you are asleep. You pay more attention to your sleep, you’ll sleep better and you will reach more of your goal in a shorter time with less effort.

„Are you god?“ is not the question that I ask myself but the character in a short story I recently read. Since I wouldn’t consider myself a religious but more of a spiritual person. Sometimes it might help to see yourself as part of something bigger, to start treating everybody else as good as you would like to be treated yourself. It is the simplicity of happiness that matters most. When more is...

The first interview partner of the show is Ben Lee, an Englishman in Australia. Ben could be the co-host of the show, such a nice and friendly guy who is always in a positive mood.

Enjoy listening to this courageous guy who went from tree surgeon in England to beer brewer in Australia a...

A healthy mind needs a healthy body and only a healthy mind can experience true happiness. My conclusion is that you need to watch you body and keep it healthy to live a happy life. Unfortunately we don’t recognize until it is almost too late that we are treating our body bad. I tried to some up some of the most important aspects to watch. - sleep - body strength - body flexibility - nutrition If...

When you thinks about living a happy life, it makes sense to think about what brings value and joy to your life and what doesn’t. Do more and get more of what does and get rid of what does not. That is the simple underlying message of simplicity. Keep it simple and focused on what matters most. Your mind, your stuff your life. In this episode I give you a very brief overview on 10 simple rules tha...

After living a lifestyle that really seems to fit the story continues in East-Africa. Having seen the African wildlife and places of my childhood dreams was not enough. I stumbled upon a lifetime chance while sailing on the Indian Ocean. I went for it, enjoyed my first full summer in the swiss mountains, dealt with individual tragedies, learned a lesson about the important things in life and conti...

Having moved to Switzerland my story continues with an adventurous trip to Sahara and East Africa, which was going to have a huge impact on my future. I learned that it is easy to lose the positive focus no matter how positive your life may look to the outside. Once again it shows, that it is not important what happens to you, but you think of it. Look at the bright side of life. That concept prov...

Having experienced so many things I loved in 2013 I wanted more of it in 2014. Together with Judy we took the crazy decision to move out and hit the road with our 1971 Mercedes Bus called Emma. Eventually we kept on traveling for eight month and ended up in the Golden Village in Switzerland. In between we had seen some of the most beautiful places ever and learned some lessons for life. If you are...

Back in Berlin I had to fit in again. That didn’t work out and I started questioning it all. I was searching for something else than the normal routine and came to the conclusion that I had to do it my way. Sometimes frustration can lead to the most powerful changes, if you are able to look at it from the bright of life. It is the simplicity of happiness that matters most. When more is too much, i...

On my personal route to happiness, I had to travel some stoney roads. Today I am talking about how a failure could turn out to become the biggest adventure. Life taught me, that is is not about what happens to you, but what you make of it. I ended up, sitting on the roof of a truck for two weeks, saw more than I could have imagined and found enough time to think. It is the simplicity of happiness...

I leave the desert village M’Hamid EL Ghizlane to be on my own in the middle of that giant dust bowl one day later. Instead of being afraid I am at peace with myself. While doing the adventure of my life I realize that all I do is not so special after all. I loose my fear but have to discover other limits to my journey and stumble yet into another adventure. It is the simplicity of happiness that...
