“Learning like this is liberating. It’s not part of a curriculum, and there’s no certificate, no graduation day. Just the satisfaction of following your bliss until you become the person you’re capable of being. When you learn like this, you defy everyone who tells you to be practical, to get with the program. As Nicholas Humphrey put it, once you harness your ambitions to this unique thing called me, you become the kind of person who aspires not just to be yourself but to make more of yourself—through learning, creativity, expression, influence, and love. You become the story you tell about yourself. Your story becomes your map.
What makes us happiest is getting where we want to go. The quality of our attention shapes us, then we in turn shape the world. The ones who do it best, most beautifully, most lovingly, most imaginatively, are the crazy ones—the ones who think they can. As John Maxwell said in The Difference Maker, “Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
When you find the joy zone and stay in it, you embark on a journey to the center of yourself. You carry with you the five tools that define your humanness—feeling, seeing, dreaming, making, and learning. You join a small party that set out 50,000 years ago from the caves of Africa, and is now on its way to the stars.
We’re not human beings; we’re human becomings. We’re not the sum of our atoms; we’re the potential of our spirit, our vision, and our talent. We delight in feeling alive, in seeing what’s possible, in putting our mark on the universe.”
Excerpt From: Marty Neumeier. “Metaskills- Five Talents for the Robotic Age.”

Your inner state is everything. You can’t be an effective learner if you can’t self-regulate.
And you can’t be an effective human if you can’t learn new skills, I.e. become a better human and continuously unfold your potential.

Hey everyone,
I love and treasure every one of you. I haven’t canceled even one session since 2022, and I don’t want to cancel it tomorrow even though I can’t lead it.
I’m in hospital, and everything is good. Don’t worry about me.
Tomorrow, everyone can join and practice clarity.
Many of you, who follow individual routines, have been doing the practice of summarizing every meeting, day, and weekend for over a week now.
How about we do more of this tomorrow together?
How to find and craft one main idea?
How to tell the main idea from one of the facts?
How to tell facts from details?
Many people struggle to communicate with impact because they believe they must share a lot of critical details first… and then deliver the main message. Unfortunately, they only drown people in details.
We do the practice of being CLEAR in order to change this pattern.
So, here is what I suggest:
1. Tomorrow you practice without me. If you attend Sunday sessions regularly, do come tomorrow too! You already know what to do!
2. I need one person to lead and record the zoom session. Who can be in charge? DM me.
3. I will join if I can, but only on audio.
4. EVERYONE can join, even if you’re not a member.
Please text me asap if you can help with leading the session.
if no one volunteers, we will have to cancel it.
I’ll be with you to share examples of clear/unclear messages and facts vs details.
Tomorrow, Sunday, April 6 at 10 am CET.

Aspects of CLARITY.
1. I can’t access the right vocabulary to express what I mean in English
2. I struggle to get to the point in English
3. I don’t sound like MYSELF in English. I struggle to be me and I want to be seen as the real me, not a version of me that is trying to speak in English.
All the exercises are available in the community. I give feedback to everyone who does the exercises. Join today.
How to join:
Send me a DM (a voice message in English) and tell your story. Why do you need native-like fluency.
I like to connect with my members and give them the practice routines that will work for their goals.
