A child’s bet

I was small, and I pictured the Creator the way children do: someone very big, somewhere up there, with whom you could strike a deal. I made a bet with him that I would always be the best. It was naive. But I believed it with all my heart.

I told my grandmother about it. She didn’t laugh at me. She said it was possible, on one condition: that I ask the invisible for it. I believed her. I think that was the day I began to trust what I could not see.

Knowing without knowing why

As I grew up, that trust took a strange form: I started knowing things without knowing why. An answer before the question. An outcome before the facts. I didn’t explain it. I simply noticed it.

Later, quantum physics gave me an image that put words to what I was living: at that scale, reality is described as a wave of possibilities, and observation brings out one result among all those that were possible. I am not a physicist, and I don’t claim these laws apply as such to our offices. But the image gave me a key: among all the possibilities, the one I keep my attention on tends to come true.

The same puzzle, everywhere

Everywhere I went, I saw the same thing. Two people with the same degree, the same tools, the same office. Ten years later, one is thriving, the other is burning out. What made the difference couldn’t be seen: the way each of them looked at their work, where they placed their attention, what they told themselves in the morning.

In the end, I gave it a name: the Non-Physical Dimension of work. DNP.

Ideas that need to reach you

I present myself neither as a master nor as a scholar. These ideas pass through me. My role is to let them through, to make them simple and practical, so that they can reach you, whether you run a business, work as an employee, serve the public, work for yourself, or are between two chapters of your working life.

All is, and flows.
