Inspirational Quotes

“The more you need help from others, the more you also help others.”

“We were just in the streets for the sake of being in the streets and our hobby became to interrupt people and pull them out of their routine and engage them in conversations and songs.”

“Everything good that happened in my life was because I randomly bumped into people traveling.”

“Novelty is healthy for the brain.”

Coaching Advice

Want to start letting your boundaries down and letting more people into your circle?  Fabian offered

1) Imagine your regular routines are new and in a different place to gain a fresher perspective.

2) Don’t focus too much on your goal or where you’re going and make an active attempt to see your surroundings like you’re a traveler.

3) Do something different, outside of your routine – let novelty in.
