Certains incidents sont là pour nous rappeler qui nous sommes et de quoi on est fait. Est-on passif ou actif dans notre manière d’agir ou parfois, de réagir ? Je considère ces questions comme étant existentielles car elles nous amènent à nous interroger sur notre propre nature et notre comportement envers les autres. Notre ADN est …

CHEW WHAT YOU CAN SWALLOW.
I would like to talk about a trait I used to have. A trait I forcibly abandoned a bit late in my life. They say better late than never and it couldn’t be more fitting than this situation. I want to talk about keeping promises. Yes, that trait! It plagues most of us, if not …
VOUS AVEZ DIT HUMILITÉ ?
« Sois humble ». Cette phrase, ordre plutôt, est quelque peu remplie de confusion, du moins pour moi. Est-ce qu’on parle de la vraie humilité ou de la fausse humilité ? Oui, il en existe deux. La vraie humilité est celle qui nous demande d’être modeste, de ne pas se croire trop important. La même humilité nous exige, …

COMFORT ZONE
Well…I bet you have heard of those two words quite often during your adult life. It is on every management guide, self help/motivational books and quotes, on various TEDtalks, etc. It is a concept often mentioned and quite a catchphrase, one that triggers people’s curiosity and gets their attention. It is quite common to hear …
WORTHLESS.
This word offends more than I could ever describe. I have heard people berating, humiliating others by calling them that. The tone of a message matters as much as the words used in the message. Mostly, this vile word has been uttered with disdain, contempt, hate, rage, disrespect, mockery, disgust and ridicule. I once heard …
ANOTHER HOLY TRINITY.
My first holy trinity isn’t the Christian one. I do not care about God, JC (cool dude, all things considered) and the holy spirit. Almost 2 billion people care about them and I believe that is more than enough. I did publish a text about my first holy trinity last year which was about self …
