Thank you for joining today's episode. We chatted with Timo Bethlehem, a friend and managing director of Meinemarkenmode. Feel free to connect with Timo on LinkedIn. We discuss the importance of priorities when you are single and have a family and how to improve ourselves in the long run by following the turtle's path. This is what you can expect in today's episode. PART I: The Role of Values in Setting Priorities. Understanding personal and organizational values can influence our priorities. - Can you share an example of a decision in your career or organization that was successful or impactful because it aligned with core values? - What are some real-world examples where values-based decision-making led to successful outcomes or avoided critical pitfalls? -What are some real-world examples where values-based decision-making led to successful outcomes or avoided critical pitfalls? PART II: Time vs. Energy Management: Which Matters More? Discuss prioritizing based on energy levels rather than just time for sustainable productivity. - How can understanding personal energy cycles help optimize productivity and improve task management?

Be social and do it often. Together, we are strong. We might think that spending time with friends is easy, but in Western culture, which prefers work over relationships, having a good time is actually becoming more complicated. Many use the work crutch as a supporting pillar to hide behind their insecurity, loneliness, and anxiety. It is easy to say that you have to work late, and sometimes, that is fully justified, as you have a big project to handle. That responsibility alone comes with your excellence and trying to do a good job. That is great! However… Humans are creatures of habit. Some are good; others can become bad. We can quickly fall into the trap of thinking we are doing our best and staying late, while in the meantime, we have substituted personal excellence for a rat-race mindset. Work hard, work long hours. You feel better about yourself. You do what you promised to yourself. Sounds about right… That is good on one side, as it fuels your habits, but it can also become a self-fulfilling prophecy as you cage yourself, especially if you focus only on always working. Science shows that burning the midnight oil might not be as productive. It's better to focus on how to maximize the time you have. Burning the night oil quickly can become an excuse not to be social. Remember, you have one life, and yes, you should strive to do your best. It happens to all of us who work long days. But do you want to spend all this time by yourself? Do not substitute living your life to the fullest for your work. Work is just one tiny piece, although we spend 80.000 in our work life there. Have fun and ask yourself why you do what you do. Question your motives, and you might find that you fuel your ego. Take risks, even when uncomfortable, meet new people, set stretch goals, and use your logic and heart! If you use your heart and emotions and not logic, try to balance it with logic. Ask others for a rational solution and vice versa. You got this: hang out with others and stay strong! :-) Useful Tools to Feel Better & Sales EQ Tips | The Fit Fun Podcast #104 by The Fit Fun PodcastIn every episode, I try to bring you new tools that might help you improve your odds of being healthier and better.

In our lives, we barrel through the week and forget to count our blessings. As you are approaching the weekend, it is good to think about stuff, moments, and people who enriched your life and people you made happier. Journaling is an ancient practice that makes us count the moments in our days and think more actively, as a driver would when driving about our journey. Life should be lived to the fullest, and we often forget about the moments when we listen to our favorite song and our feet are tapping. Human beings need to be more mindful. Today, try to find a few moments and think about three beautiful experiences you created this week. What special experiences have you created, and which beautiful growth moments will you create in the upcoming week? Remember, growth happens even without us knowing it. Journaling practice is essential. You can take a free course to learn the basics of becoming a better leader. This will make your life happier and more grounded, and you will already have everything you need. Remember that everything in life happens at the right time and sequence. Be patient. Enjoy the ride. And count your blessings.

We live in a highly competitive world, and moving from one stage to another takes a lot of effort. As you start the week, borrow the strategies of other great people. Study how others achieve their goals, ask for help, and be humble and foolish enough to pursue your own. Compete with yourself. Personal Challenge + The Way of The Turtle (Having Long-term Perspective)= Great Life Quality Satisfaction & Outcomes We think about life to survive or to get by. That is the lowest level of living. When we finally decide to go all in… We are met with challenges… We do not like challenges, as life seems harsh already. We complain and rest on our laurels. That mindset gets us into trouble. Our minds can be deceiving. We need to let optimism be the guiding north star. Does a mindset shift happen from one day to another? No. But, with effort, you can nudge your mind to seek positivity and goodness. Get inspired daily. Feed our mindset with inspiration and motivation. 2. Set your goals and look at them daily. Having a needle-moving project can be the difference between focusing on the right things and not. 3. Build your habits. The projects will flow when you desire to work towards your chosen things daily. That requires a daily habit and consistency in your behavior. With these three pillars, you can turn your challenges into outcomes. Here are a few more reminders: Remember, things take time. Be patient. With enough time, effort, and optimization, you can get to where you want to go. Measure yourself weekly Be open to pivoting. Do not beat yourself up (it diminishes your self-esteem) And remember, when you knock on the door of opportunity, work is what answers. So, go and work, and make it fun. When it does not work, try a different approach. ;-)

"Wall Street is the only place that people ride to in a Rolls-Royce to get advice from those who take the subway." - Warren Buffett The market is volatile, and sometimes, that can be scary. Your career: you worked for it, you strived, you got promoted, and it can all be taken away from you. That is why you must work on yourself and build your life holistically. Do not put all your eggs in one basket. Consistently challenge yourself with new ideas and how to reach the next level. You can make randomness your friend.

In every episode, I try to bring you new tools that might help you improve your odds of being healthier and better. I am starting to mix more sales & marketing approaches and what to watch out for. A sales career can be rewarding but also very frustrating. You can hurt really bad. However, it is also one of the skills which will teach you many valuable lessons about yourself and others. Humans are emotional creatures and always act emotionally, even if they do not think that. Are you ready to step up your influential skills?

Remember that building health takes time, but it is super important. With that also come vital values that help you to maintain energy, positivity, and resilience when times are tough. The secret to a life well lived is to play the long game. You will lose days by not feeling well, but that is OK. Focus on the price and try to go steadily (yes, maybe you walk slower), but keep moving ahead. 1% daily improvement is 3650% in 10 years!
