The title is an old Metallica song. I love it. Not sure if the song is about what I’m about to write. But still it’s an awesome song. While I’m writing this, I’m not even sure if this post will ever see the daylight. But for me this is so important (yet vulnerable and painful).ContinueContinue reading “The unforgiven”

It’s OK to feel like shit
This entire weekend I’ve been in a very bad mood. And you know what? It’s ok!!! It ain’t pooping rainbows on my unicorn all the time. I ate too much candy, I definitely had too much suger, I also ate a lot of fresh fruit and healthy food and I had wine too. I bakedContinueContinue reading “It’s OK to feel like shit”
Writing new code
Are our beliefs the absolute truth? How did we get those beliefs? And why are false/limiting/old beliefs so tenacious? Can we change our beliefs for the better? I watched a motivational video this morning and it made me cry. No worries, every touching video I watch about kittens or puppies make me cry when IContinueContinue reading “Writing new code”

Happy camper
Last Sunday I had a sprint triathlon and I took my own advice. Because you know what I did? I had fun! Yes, I had to dig deep and I had pain and I was undertrained, but I had tons of fun! Of course it wasn’t like this before the start. Because of many reasons.ContinueContinue reading “Happy camper”
How to enjoy the damn thing
My athletic confidence. That is what I want to talk about. What does it mean? To me it means on every level you perform, you own your athletic perfomance, how confident you are in your physical ability, how much you trust your body and how to put it in perspective and how to enjoy thisContinueContinue reading “How to enjoy the damn thing”
Easy breakfast for champions, overnight oats Snickers
When you don’t have time in the morning, have a long day ahead of you or a long training scheduled, this is a good breakfast option. I didn’t think of it myself, but sharing is caring. Right? Best about this breakfast is, you have to make it the night before. So you don’t have theContinueContinue reading “Easy breakfast for champions, overnight oats Snickers”
Like a dolphin
Today I am supposed to do my first Ride for the Roses ride, instead I’m moping on the couch coughing and sneezing my ass off. I was really looking forward to it. It’s quite an event and it would be my first. But this time off gives me some time to get my head together.ContinueContinue reading “Like a dolphin”
Go big or go home
In my last post I told about my insecurities and selfdoubt. Since then I really got inspired and I’ve got a big plan to nail that selfdoubt and insecurity. But that is not the biggest reason why I’m up for this epic big plan. Let me tell you. Once there was a former Olympic swimmer,ContinueContinue reading “Go big or go home”
Self doubt
This year I noticed I have a great deal of self doubt. Seems as I’m getting older, I’m getting more insecure and more anxious about (new) things. I actually thought it was the other way around. The older you get, the more confident you become. So what’s the deal with me? To be honest IContinueContinue reading “Self doubt”
