Why do we often feel like life is moving too fast and we’re not truly enjoying it? Why do we so often fail to achieve what we want? And why do we struggle to make desired changes a reality?
It’s something most people wrestle with. Fortunately, there’s both an explanation ánd a solution.
In this article, we want to offer you a model to tackle these challenges so you can more easily experience greater success, fulfillment, and happiness. A model that helps you to achieve more with less.
Read MoreWhen you’re in the training and coaching space, you start to see patterns that foster change and growth, and patterns that sabotage them.
One of the biggest obstacles I see? The pursuit of perfection.
For those with perfectionist tendencies (check 😅), this can be especially challenging. But even if you don’t consider yourself a perfectionist, chances are that when you get inspired to improve something in your life, you might fall into the trap of expecting quick results or perfect progress. And when reality doesn’t match those expectations, frustration kicks in.
So… how do we embrace growth in a way that makes it a joyful journey?
Read MoreIn the previous article (The Clarity & Purpose Blueprint), we talked about how every fulfilling life starts with a simple yet powerful question: What do I truly want, and why does it matter?
Both Clarity & Purpose form the foundation for taking ownership of your life and experiencing more of what truly fulfills you. It’s not about perfection or checking off boxes—it’s about aligning your energy and actions with what feels meaningful to you.
In this article, we’ll dive deeper into how purpose is linked to fulfillment and why your mindset is the most powerful tool you have in shaping a meaningful and fulfilling life.
Read MoreEvery fulfilling life starts with a simple yet powerful question: What do I truly want, and why does it matter?
If life doesn’t feel as vibrant as it could—whether that’s because of constant fatigue, stress, a sense that something is missing, frustration, or lack of joy—this is an invitation to take a step forward. It’s never too late to create a life that feels more intentional, meaningful, and aligned with who you are and who you want to be.
Read MoreHave you ever wondered what it’s like to adopt the habits of some of the world’s most successful individuals?
Last years, I’ve been exploring and fine-tuning my own habits for energy, health, joy and success. After exploring the teachings and habits of Marcus Aurelius (check out the results here), I turned to modern-day powerhouse Tony Robbins for inspiration.
For 30 days, I decided to test the morning routines of this renowned author, entrepreneur, self-help guru, and philanthropist. Known for his unparalleled energy and drive, Tony Robbins has inspired millions worldwide through his seminars like Unleash The Power Within and his Netflix documentary I Am Not Your Guru.
Read MoreI did it—my second marathon is in the books! While it feels incredible to check off another goal, this time, it’s not just about the finish line. Instead of focusing on the achievement, I’m celebrating something far more meaningful: the journey itself.
Of course, I’m proud of the achievement—it’s rewarding and even a bit emotional. Achieving goals and celebrating success are essential for behavior change and building self-confidence but it’s not where true fulfilment can be found. Running this marathon was more than a test of endurance; it was a path to becoming a new, stronger version of myself. Along the way, I discovered that fulfilment comes from who we become in the process and how we learn to enjoy the journey. The beauty lies in balancing the desire to grow into a better version of ourselves with appreciating who we are right now.
Read MoreWhat happens when we make an all-in decision and fully commit to something?
When we tune into what we really want and make a bold move, something incredible seems to happen. It’s like telling the universe, “I’m ready—let’s go!” And suddenly, opportunities start falling into place.
Do you take the time to tune into what you truly want? Here are a few tools to help you connect with your inner guide:
Read MoreDo you remember the last time you felt truly excited? That electric buzz in your veins, the spark in your eyes, and the sense of possibility in the air?
Excitement is often underestimated, but it’s one of the most powerful forces we can harness in our lives. It’s not just a fleeting emotion—it’s an essential driver of progress, growth, and deep fulfillment. It’s pointing you towards something that could truly make you happy.
But here’s the catch:
Read MoreWhile I'm naturally an optimist, I must acknowledge that we're navigating some truly challenging times. A few statistics I encountered last week left a significant impact on me, prompting me to write this short piece—not just to recognize these difficulties but also to share a message of hope.

Wat zijn de voordelen van actief aan de slag te gaan met doelen?

Als we nadenken over hoe we ons leven op de best mogelijke manier vorm kunnen geven en hoe we een leven kunnen leven waar wij ten volle van kunnen genieten, dan zijn er een aantal struikelblokken die ons kunnen verhinderen om dat leven uit te bouwen.
En de eerste struikelblok die je kan tegenkomen is een gebrek aan wat wij "Clarity & Purpose" noemen.
Zonder helderheid in wat voor jou belangrijk is, vaar je blind. En daar is niks mis mee op zich maar in de context van ons leven ten volle leven en echt aan het stuur ervan staan, is blind varen niet de meest impactvolle manier om dat vorm te geven. Leer in dit artikel hoe je niet meer blind hoeft te varen.

Read MoreIn the next 10 years, we're likely to see as much change as we had in the last 100. We might know and feel that the world is changing fast, but the speed at which change is accelerating is making it difficult for most of us to keep up.

This article aims to shift the narrative. We’ll look at what we can do to feel better in this complex reality.

Read MoreVaak hebben we de omstandigheden niet in de hand. Wat we wél in de hand hebben is onszelf (meer dan we denken). Maar toch zoeken we regelmatig verklaringen voor onze resultaten of non-resultaten buiten onszelf. Onder andere omdat onszelf die spiegel voorhouden nondepie niet gemakkelijk is, zeker als de situatie of het resultaat niet is wat we willen. Hoe kunnen we hiermee aan de slag?
