On ideas, power, and shortcomings

Published: 29.09.2016

The classic: the idea was born in a sleepless night at the end of December. It tormented me for a whopping 6 months until it finally broke through. Doubts, hesitation, and dithering suddenly left the scene and gave way to an unfamiliar decisiveness. After that, I had to recover for a month and continue living my comfortable comfort zone life.

Nevertheless: 'Nothing is as powerful as an idea whose time has come.'

Ah, a wonderful saying. Once around the world, only to come right back to myself. That's what they call an adventure nowadays.

By the way, this blog owes its name to my dear Desi and her birthday card for me. Mama also played a part. They never said, 'go for it, do it now, now or never, do it, you're still young!!'... They simply pricked up their ears and asked the right questions at the right time. It's as simple as that.

So far, so good. I could already feel a little breeze of freedom in the open air after making it public. But now I'm 30 and a bit wiser than when I was 20, so I know that not everything always goes according to plan. That's why I always keep a passage from Berthold Brecht's 'The Song of Insufficiency' in mind.

'Yes, go ahead and make a plan, be a big light! And then make another plan, neither will work.'

In my personal, multi-part work 'Tales of Failure', we open the first chapter: the attempt to sublet an apartment. A touchy subject. Let's leave that aside. I practice equanimity, which is a core theme of this whole journey affair. But it doesn't help.
