a motto someone shared with me many years ago, “ki-lined”:
prepare for the toughest outcome.
expect little, if you must expect anything at all.
hope for the best. and more: hope for everything.
if you prepare for “the worst that can happen”, and you can see that you will still make it through, you can relax.
if you expect little, if you are not attached to the outcome at all, you can relax a bit more.
if you can hope for everything, you can step into each day with a chance of joy, and contentment.

professional coach.
photographer.
i do not believe in capitalization, because why should "i" be bigger than "you"?
i am the sum of my beliefs and more.
i believe in fairness and honesty, but i take nothing for granted. when i encounter exceptional fairness, honesty, and human kindness, i am moved beyond words.
i believe we all have what we need to be happy and feel purposeful and fulfilled, but sometimes we have a hard time accessing this well of wealth within us, and sometimes it helps if someone sheds a light and helps us get to it.
i want to be that person for others, the one who holds the torch or helps design a way through obstacles, a key (ki) to the solutions to what one considers a problem.
i am a forever learner, and will probably always travel and move on a quest for more knowledge and more insight.
i am driven by a perpetual sense that things can be improved.
i enjoy learning new processes, languages, exploring places, cultures, and i always thrive on "other".
other traditions, progressive innovation, indigenous cultures, languages.
and - i love to share what i learn.
i am self. aware.
all photos (c) ki woyke.
