Have no fear of perfection. Youâll never reach it
Another world-famous painter and artist Salvador Dali is also wellknown for his funny beard. He was a master of fantasy and realizations of dreams. He in a paradox citation was convinced: âHave no fear of perfection. Youâll never reach itâ.
Itâs calming to know what he said and itâs true: You can never reach perfection and the more to try to the more you loose your own creativity, your own emotional life and its surprising expression.

Encourage your creativity: together
The French painter and artist Henri Matisse puts his experience into very few words like âcreativity takes courageâ. He was convinced about creativity to be part of mankind and heâs also convinced that you can live your own creativity. He also knows out of experience and out of watching people that it takes a big courage to really live your own creativity, to show up as a creative person.
Courage, couriosity and creativity are main parts of the dynamics of life. You embody them where ever you are and who ever you are. Following them you create your life and you show up with yourself. By that you can be experienced as a single Person as a personality among all the others who surround you. Among all the others who create your environment.
Share this with the others and you create your world. And by that you respect the world in general. đ

Creativity is the child`s brain
The world-famous painter Pablo Picasso was convinced that every child is an artist. So he trusts in life, he trusts in mankind but he didnât trust in growing up in a specific environment. He didnât trust in education.
He adds that the problem is staying an artist when you grow up. I think his idea is worth to be thought about. Especially in times of bigger stress on children in education at school and when they grow up in their Job.
When do we I ask myself return to nature like education, to creativity
which is part of childhood and the brain of childhood. Why dont we trust in our children and the vibrant self-regulation of development. đ

Emotionally strong people
Sometimes people want to be emotionally strong, sometime they have to be. But what does this mean to be emotionally strong and how can you judge a person`s internal state of feeling by what you see on the outside. Often people think emotionally strong people are quiet, never complain or donât show too much emotional Expression. In contrast to this any signs of emotional âleakageâ (i.e., expressing emotional distress in any way) or tears (especially in men), is often viewed as evidence the person has difficulties coping and is emotionally weak.
This often is not correct and…………..

Stock market crash or when money kills you
The stock market in China is eroding. People loose ever so much money in ever such a short period of time.
Nearly a quarter of investors say that the value of their investments has fallen by more than 50 percent since the beginning of the year amid falling stock prices. 23.8 percent of the 42,000 people polled by sina said that they “had suffered a loss of over 50 percent and dare not check their accounts”.
Investors and bankers feared already since some months that this would happen soon in China. It is a stock bubble which seems to explode.
Its not my interest to analyse this. I am not the expert for this. But I am an expert for human relationship and communication. Let me tell you first a very personal story. When we …………..

Bikini foreigners in China
Itâs reported via the news in China that foreigners in Shanghai went sun-bathing during the last weeks before the big rain started. A lot of photos were presented, photos of foreigners enjoying the sun in the park and wearing bikinis. Apparently this is news-worthy in China!
For us in western countries itâs normal. Itâs just a good habit to feel comfortable, to react to the sun and to enjoy outside in the fresh air. This is a very big contrast to China.
A contrast at least ……….
