Procrastinating out of Crisis


Is it possible that I procrastinate just to stay in crisis? Could it be an addiction? Or is it simply hard to accept a new identity? Nobody is perfect...

This is where it all started. After my life as a family man, this dad became a rolling stone. In the middle of my identity crisis, where I could no longer play the roles expected of me, I felt the urge to leave. Via Amserdam I ended up in India. I called it "going on a journey to find myself." That was in 2011.

The first cracks appeared even before I left what most call "normal society." A society where role-playing keeps social contracts intact, where time pushes us further away from our purpose. Looking back, I am grateful for the breakdown. It was painful, yes, but ultimately uplifting. I’ve heard that in ancient Greek, the word "crisis" also means "new beginning." I love that idea.

So why am I still holding back from a new beginning? I have no excuses left. It’s time to share my story. The story of a father, a Yes Man who became a Nobody.

I'll keep things short and simple. No filters, just raw or real experiences of me thriving and surviving in paradise, bringing me to this point, happy to share insights, aha moments, and smiles. Lots of smiles.
