This morning I went out for a walk and got inspired to take my phone and shoot this little video. I don’t do new years resolutions, but every year (for the past 5 years) I choose a word. My word for 2019 is EMERGE and I’m really curious what will emerge for me (and through me) this coming year.

The funny thing is that my workcalender is totally empty up until May 2d, when I have to teach a Leadership & Personal Development course to MBA students in Tallinn Estonia. So it feels a bit like I’m standing in front of a big white empty canvas. On one hand a bit scary, where should I start? On the other hand very exciting and full of possibilities.

Hahaha, as I am writing this, an actual white canvas that is standing in my room on a painters easel is falling down on the floor. (maybe a sign I should paint something).

So I give myself a Licence to Play and see how my life will unfold in a playful way. That doesn’t mean that I will say No to workopportunities, but I will only say Yes when they feel right.

Have a playful day!
