Do you know what I stopped doing a long time ago?
Putting all my money on one horse. Or more clearly put: earn money from just one place.
At this moment I am making ten colourful boxes as a branding/marketing statement for my wellness coaching.
The first one is almost finished, I will show you later. On the front I'll write a text such as "get into shape for this summer" or "Change your life, change your breakfast" or something like that.
On the side I'll make a sleeve with little cards where people can fill out their contact information and put into the box. Cute, I know!
I want to have ten of such boxes, spread in this region. And another ten in Malmö, and another ten in Gothenburg.
Why? Because this method has been proven to attract curious potential customers, and it is in fact a passive income.
So what are you going to do this evening?

Be compassionate to yourself!
One of the women I admire the most in the entire world is her: www.blondinbella.se
She started blogging when she was 14, started her first company when she was 16, now she has a fashion collection, published book, a brand new magazine, a web shop and a private investors company. And she is 20 years old.
Who said beauty and brains can't come together?
Just now she blogged "I will take a break from everything this weekend. Shut my cell phone off, don't check my e-mail, nothing".
And I figured that's something we all should do from time to time. To dare be unreachable for a while.
Do you remember in the good old days, when yo went on vacation, and nobody could reach you for three weeks?
Wasn't that wonderful in many ways? I love my laptop and smartphone but...I'm never offline. I'm never on a real break.
And nowadays if you don't respond to an e-mail within the hour, you get text messages and phone calls from that person, that is a bit insulted you didn't take time for them at that red hot minute.
Being online constantly leads to stress. And I think we are not aware of half of it. It is such a part of our daily lives, that we have forgotten what it was like to be completely disconnected and free from the rest of the world.
But I vaguely remember hot summer days as a child. I ran barefoot through the woods of the north of Sweden, without a care in the world.
When the sun got lower, and I got hungry, I ran home to eat. Nobody worried if I was a bit late. Parenting in the north of Sweden 15 years ago was a non-stop holiday compared to what I see here in the Netherlands now. Yikes.
A part of becoming more healthy is to learn to let go of the world. Shut the phone off. Leave the world be for a while.
Let go of the constant flow of news.
And just breathe in. And breathe out.
