Working on the new #2017 routine…

While listening to the best songs of the past year I am working in an empty office space. (Some old, some new, some borrowed, some blue… 😉

Nevermind. What I am working on is a new schedule for this year´s challenges. Let’s mention a few. Businesswise as well as personal goals for this year are as follows:

  • 3 different EU projects to start, maintain, follow-up
  • Finding new ways to cooperate with different clusters
  • Some 20+ matchmaking events
  • 12 conference visits across the year and across Netherlands, Germany and Belgium
  • 300+ partnerships to uphold and maintain
  • Welcoming some 1300+ guests at the Health Valley Event, March 9th 2017

So I need some good best practices in place to keep me sane during the coming year.

This is how I see it;

  • Work on my morning routine. See my twitter account for how that is working out in #morningroutine.
  • Use my purple HealthValley Dopper more often during the day.
  • Train hard. See #MDD31 at Twitter account. 179 days left to get in topshape.
  • Use the oil&water hourglass (topright) to get uninterupted focustime at the office. (Just have to instruct my co-workers…)
  • Using the journal in planning the day ahead on the night before.
  • Not forget to use the creative side of the Sharpie pens 😉
  • Blog more on the process. So I can keep track of the progress…

The proces will involve applying a lot of the productivity hacks I have accumulated over the past years. This year will be the ultimate test to see what works for me and what not. I thought I might be interesting to keep you updated overhere on these pages.

Any comments or suggestions I might try, feel free to leave a note.

Wondering—past and future

I feel a new series coming up, whenever I read Seth Godin’s little blog of wisdom. Now I just need a name for it…

Wondering about your past, about what might have happened, about bad decisions made and roads not taken… this is a recipe for not much more than regret. But wondering about your future? When we wonder about the future, we get a chance to begin again, to set new goals and envision bold plans.

More cycling…

In preparation for the July challenge some hours spinning @USC tonight.

LaLaLand @Lux Nijmegen

Just saw one of the most memorable movies of this year…(I know, we have only just started… 😉

LaLaLand with Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone. What a great movie for the old romantic of heart. A must see for jazz lovers and movie fans. Some really nice stylistic remarks into ‘Rebel without a cause’ or ´ An American in Paris’ . I totally loved it. Romantic of heart is still very much a trait to be desired for…Go see it…
