[...] is alweer een paar maanden geleden dat ik op de blog van Tim Bronwson het artikel ‘What’s your big picture’ las. Op de één of andere manier prikkelde het me er iets mee te doen en ik nam een citaat uit [...]

Nice post Tim. It equates to the chunking up/down method for gaining clarity. When something small doesn’t go my way I often think ‘in the grand scheme of things, what does it really matter?’ and that helps me put things into perspective.

On another level thinking about the grand universal picture I realise that it doesn’t matter what I do so long as I have fulfillment in doing it and it serves a purpose for me.

Hi Tim, first of all I wanted to say thank you for mentioning my site. It was a totally unexpected and gracious gesture, so thank you.

It’s not easy to see the bigger picture when you don’t really know what you’re looking for or even why you’re looking for it. Like many other people I think I know what I want from life but in fact I don’t – not definitively anyway. And what’s more, it’s changed over the years. What I want now isn’t what I wanted 20 years ago.

Another problem I’ve encountered in the past is that much of what I think I wanted raised conflicts in my mind and I wasn’t even sure why. I have a better insight into that now.

Call round any time with your offer of multiple millions!

Money? Yes I would love some, then I would never have to work again and just concentrate on writing and making the world a better place for all.

@ TRacy – Go and have a nap! Sleep is massively underrated my most people in my experience.

@ Walter – I think we agree, because when I talk of the big picture I mean stuff like that.

@ Eduard – Absolutely!

@ Slawek – In the UK when winter was drawing in my big picture was moving to Florida! I feel your pain ;-)
