It has been 261 weeks of blogging today. 5 years . Suyin’s Friday thoughts is the appointment I have with myself to reflect on my thoughts of the week and write an opinion about something.
We live in a society where disruption is behind every corner and borders disappear. I see this as an advantage and I trust in the digital transformation, it is an opportunity for growth and we will get more time again for personal contact between individuals. Writing a blog for me is not only about creating a personal brand, but feels more as an authentic way to share what I feel and how I think, as I believe that sharing an opinion in an authentic way is also about giving back to society.
I believe that my curiosity in people, their dreams, their choices, their fears makes me ask the right questions. I find it very important to help others to air their views, make an opinion and eventually change their opinion if necessary.
My background as a dancer, actress, entrepreneur, moderator, public speaker helps me to be clear in the communication of my own vision and I am convinced it helps others to express their mission.
My fast adaptation skills and helicopter view on business and society as a multi-passionate entrepreneur makes it possible for me to get fascinated with many thoughts and it is not always easy to decide what to write about every week. I challenge myself to think out of the box and not accept the status quo. I also believe a lot in positivity, I remind myself very often it is important to smile without a reason why.
It gives you so many smiles back when I smile at people I do not know, in the street when walking my dog, on an event, on stage,....
At the end of our lives I believe that it all comes back to how much love we were able to give and receive.
I will continue sharing my opinions and I know they are not stubborn or fixed, I might have shared things before on which my ideas are different now, but even research shows that our views, even on politics are changing all the time. So what I share today might change in my mind one day, but it doesn’t mean I should not share the feelings of today.
I hope you keep on reading my Friday Thoughts and as long as I make you feel, reflect and live, that’s all that matters.
