“Oh, but it’s nothing!” How many times have you heard this about yourself, or worse: how many times have you felt this way without being told it verbally? The impression that we are nothing, meaning that we have no perceived value to others, stems from this feeling. When someone – mostly unintentionally – shows us […]
When someone says to me, “Pay me whatever you want,” I can feel the intense cognitive dissonance in the air. The person is clearly asking for money for what they’ve provided, but they’re afraid to say it directly, so stating a price becomes torture for them. And for me, too. Because somehow I feel like […]
This is the billion dollar question, right? What do I sell ? The short answer for me is CLARITY. Yes, I sell clarity. It’s the experience of my customers – the people who pay me for my products and services. And yes, clarity is the experience, not the product itself. The real reason people buy […]
As Albert Einstein said, “Everything is energy.” But esotericists say that money itself is not energy. Money is just a vehicle that carries the energy of the giver. So what? If I feel fear when I give you money, the energy you receive from me is fear itself. Believe it or not. But that’s the […]

I can understand people who feel desperate and use coercion because they are afraid of losing something that is meaningful to them, such as a desire for power that […]
For a long time, I thought I was doing good for others who couldn’t do something for themselves. I understood their urgency, desperation, anxiety, panic or their sense of helplessness. What I really understood was how they felt. My empathy was so strong that I could experience their emotions through my body, and sometimes it […]
So… You want to retire, but you don’t want to depend on your country’s pension system? You want to retire in a beautiful place, without any financial constraints? So, are you doing your job right, or are you doing the right job that needs to be done? Ever since we were children, people have been […]
I’ve heard this many times from my father, from friends and colleagues. I’ve heard myself say this to someone in the past and even to myself. My mother didn’t tell me, but it was even worse because I could see her face when I asked for money as a child. So I subconsciously started avoiding […]
