• A day out with my mom (👉 😷) masks required on the deck but not during lunch 🙃
☀️
We did the same cruise on the same Belle Époque boat (👉👉) in summer 2015 with my friend and co-host @fatma.zaidi and clients on an unforgettable weekend we called Swiss Jewel VIP Experience. Time flies!
☀️
One more time I am grateful beyond words for being born in Switzerland and living in an area of such stunning beauty. 
☀️
And being able to spend a whole day with the amazing being who welcomed me on planet earth 50 years ago. Thanks for everything mom!

  • I n her book Bright Adults Ellen Fiedler cites six aspects that are all typical of bright, talented and gifted adults: „emotional intensity, metacognition (thinking about thinking), and heightened sensitivity, along with enthusiasm, excitability, and expressiveness.“ (p. 13)

  • Day 97/100 of daily writing practice. It does make a difference if you show up consistantly 😎
☀️
The key is to choose wisely which simple actions will allow you to reach your goals. For some of these habits the compound effect will work to your benefit (as exemplified in the book#theslightedge ). 
☀️
For others the real ‘benefit’ is in the actual doing, the experience of the flow, the satisfaction of keeping the momentum. I don’t count the days of watering the flowers in my garden for example 🌻
☀️
Certain things - with constant practice- will become your second nature. Because they are tied to who you want to be. 
In any case, patience and perseverance will be your best friends on the journey.

  • Time to say goodbye to Patty Muffins and the Vulcan salute. I am opening a new chapter. I felt like an alien for a long time. Secretly. No one could guess. Contrary to prevailing stereotypes giftedness includes for the majority having excellent social intelligence and skills as well. 
☀️
Today I know that this feeling of existential loneliness was linked to the ignorance around extra intelligence and intensity. It’s about feeling ‘out of sync’ with your environment. 
☀️
The awareness of what ‚giftedness‘ actually means changed my perspective - and my life -in so many ways.
The question, „How to find a middle path between informing without insisting or imposing?“, has preoccupied me for months.
☀️
My job certainly is not to convince others, who don’t want to hear about it, that exploring the subject might be not just interesting but also important for them.
☀️
Not all bright/ gifted adults aka ‘aliens’ feel strange by the way... you can learn more about the topic in this article https://patriciamauerhofer.com/feel-like-an-alien/

Thanks for leaving a comment.

  • On top of les jumelles (👉 to see the mountain) 😎 - avec vue sur le lac Léman. Die Alpwiesen waren eine Augenweide 😍
With me were hubby and four friends plus a daughter and grandson. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate 50 precious years on this precious planet.
☀️
The ingredients for a truly brilliant life and happiness? Deep relationships, a meaningful occupation, doing what you love, loving what you do, appreciate what you have, give generously (money, time, skills and love) and make every day count!
☀️
Thanks for all the birthday wishes! May you be healthy and safe!

  • I turn 50 in two weeks. One of the greatest aspects about getting older is to become more daring in not caring what anyone else than the few people who matter most might think or say...
☀️
I intended to publish a second article by Patty Muffins, my alter ego who ponders less and plays more, this month. I changed my mind. 
☀️
I don’t need ‘her’ anymore. I don’t feel like an alien anymore. I don’t feel somehow weird or flawed or out of sync with my environment anymore.  I mind my own business.
