After two weeks in hostels it was time for some more Couchsurfing in Brasilia. And It turned out to be a good idea to occupy the house of my fellow surfers. Although Brasilia is one of the nicer cities in Brazil (Except for Rio de Janeiro the rest is just really ugly) this place will enter the books as the place where I experienced how it feels to be Brad Pitt.

Make your dreams come true. Start today!
An average life, the daily grind, and excuses to not fully enjoy life. This is how to the life of too many people in our environment look like. I am already trying for a while to get out of this daily grind, en enjoy my life fully. A few days ago I was triggered to go even further with getting everything out of my life.

The ancient art of listening
How good do you really listen to another person? Listening, we do it about 50% of a conversation, en that means it is almost as important as speaking. People often think listening is passive, waiting untill you can speak again, or ask another question. Real listening is just as active like speaking though. When you listen well you’re communicating all the time. Even active listening is often practiced wrong. Many people would listen too little, which means when it is practiced it results in long silences, or more open questions so we can enable the other to speak even longer.
