Change. People change. Work changes. The world changes. Everything runs quicker and more efficiently. And as everything and everyone adapts to this change, perceptions change too. I want it perfect, and I want it now. But what does that mean you might say? In such a fast-paced environment (I wonder how many people considered another decade to be way faster than the previous ones), people are expected to achieve great results, to work more,...

The idea of compensating is not something that is new to me. At school, I was able to compensate a bad score through better scores in other classes, and ever since I got myself my new truck, people have been yanking my chain on how I must be compensating for a small junk. But only yesterday did I start to realize how much compensating people actually do, and I was hoping that you too, could see it. For a start, what do I consider...

The cleverer you get, the lonelier you get.

Over time, it has come to my attention that the only way for me, to do all that I do do, is to work with experts. And maybe you’ve already come to a similar conclusion, maybe you’ll never reach that conclusion. Nonetheless, here’s my thoughts. First, try and visualize what you’re really good at.

Driving around, relaxed, but as soon as I crossed the border, I felt annoyed that I’d switch to Belgian network, and I’d have to manually switch back. At Quick, in my usual self, I insisted this mother from another line had been there first, so she came before me and pulled a Sally (Harry’s friend?...

With a delivery that was 7 weeks late, I finally slept on my very own first Tempur matrass last night. I didn’t sleep all too thoroughly, a cigar or two too many, but when I first woke this morning, no back-ache! Will test it for a few more days, but so far, so good! (just avoid Meubles Oestreicher if you value my opinion )

To my IT and non-IT readers, here’s my latest. For 12 months, I’ve now had an HP PC at home. From day 1, I installed Ubuntu and it worked like a charm. Up until a month ago, where it would shut down whenever it reached a certain temperature. Luckily, within 12 months, there’s still a warranty to claim!
