THIS EPISODE IS ABOUT LIFE AND DEATH, LOSS AND PAIN From time to time, I come up with an episode that is not meant to be for everyone. This one might be one of them. Ladies and gentlemen, this episode is about life and death, including loss and pain. And still, I love this episode.When I started to write it, a thousand words just flew out of my fingers in no time, but for many words, the tears blurred my view. It’s about a letter I shall receive when I lose someone I love, or if I become ill or just before my own death. It’s the letter from my healthy, happy me to my troubled me. I am aware, that this episode touches ME, because it is about MY life. Why do I publish it? Because you can take this and turn it into yours, by also writing such a letter. At the end of this episode, I will tell you why I think you should do this. A little outtake: “A few words before I read the letter to you: With the pandemic, death and loss come closer, and we struggle. I notice many people lose hope. But not me. And maybe this is what I have to do. Spread a spirit about life, love, compassion, empathy and growth, even in dark times.  I need to hear those voices who spread hope and optimism and if I can be such a voice for you – I’m more than happy to do so. I asked one of my best friends if I should wait to publish this episode and she said: “Are you crazy! There is no good or bad timing for this topic. It can’t be that it still is a taboo to talk about loss, death and illnesses. It’s going to happen to everyone, and we can’t ignore these facts. It will hurt yes. But the sooner we confront ourselves with the difficult moments in life – the more thoughtful we become about them and that’s what’s missing.”“ My dear ones out there, we have a winner for a free call, which I announce in the end of this episode. I can’t wait to talk to you! Take care! Bye, anna The Member's Club CHECK IT OUT Episode notes: It’s all about a letter that helps me to deal with death, loss and pain.

I'VE LEARNED A FEW THINGS ABOUT GOAL SETTING... This episode is about reaching goals without chasing them and how important it is to eliminate impatience because it kills not only your creativity but it is a real danger for the goal you want to reach. Welcome, dear ladies and gentlemen.  A little outtake: " You see, I have never been a future-oriented person. I was THE example of living in the here and now. That was my place to be. Sounds nice, huh? Well, wait for it; the second time I remember someone asking me this question; Miss Jelen, where do you see your company in one year was my marketing counsellor when I got started with my own business. Same answer here: I have no idea! With this attitude - you will gently push your business over the edge. There was no way around it; I had to learn, to have visions and goals. That was very difficult for me. As a young woman, my near-death experience and other losses taught me that life could end faster than you think. This realization made me stay in my now and only there - because I knew, that is where life happens." My dear ones out there, Do you want to win free participation in my upcoming Zoom speech on January 18th?

THIS YEAR WILL SHOW US, HOW TRUE WE ARE TO OURSELVES Please feel free to comment on this episode below. Very curious about how you will approach the upcoming challenge. A little outtake: "My dear listener, today, many people want the before-covid time back. Some want just a tiny bit of normality back. It's understandable. But there are also many people out there, who say: but there was a lot I liked about 2020. Evident to me; the last year has been a year of change. Of growth. We learned a lot about ourselves. We have found out more about our priorities, fears, what we want and what we don't want. We have approached the big questions in life.  But most of all, it was a year of decision making. How many people have I heard saying:  I will not return back into the wheel of hamster I will continue to consume less I will take more care of myself Now I know my priorities, and I will keep it that way That's fabulous. But and here comes my worry: the tornado of life will be back. The wheel will be turning faster. What do we do, to resist to go back to the wheel of a hamster? Fact is, the suction of the wheel turning again will be strong. It's hard to resist. I worry that we will break our promises. I worry about how we will react and to whom in favour?The question is, which tools or ingredients do we need, that we will not be sucked back in there as soon as the rhythm accelerates again? And how can we stick to our promises, conclusions, and decisions we took when the system was shut down? I believe we face a considerable challenge. But we can do this. Listen to the whole episode and find out how!" Greetings from the submarine. Yours, AnnA  The Member's Club CHECK IT OUT Episode notes: - my dream 00:55 - 05:15 - the tornado will be back 05:15 - 07:44 - the tools for 2021 07:44 - 10:11 - going deep 10:11 - 11:00 - how do words not just stay words 11:00 - 12:00 - the picture 12:00 - 12:32 - please leave a comment 12:32 - 13:12 - thank you Eduardo 13:12 - end  Next zoom speech for Members:  18th (EN) and 19th (DE) of January.  All about routines and rituals to stay mentally fit. 

Hi, I'm Anna and this is a short outtake from my latest episode where I talk about THE SINGING ICE. "Before I share the most incredible sound with you - let's dive into a few interesting facts: Every sound tells you a story. A car passing by on a snowy route - what's the story? Where does that car come from? When did it snow the last time? Who is driving the car? Where is this person going?A sound can also be a moment. It can remind you of a moment you have experienced in life. The sound of a helicopter can reveal a memory. The sound of the last breath from someone you love. I remember a very tragic sound. When Lupa, our dog was with me, and we both thought that my last hour had struck and I was going to die. It was the first time in my life - I heard her cry. Her whining ripped my heart apart. When I close my eyes and go back to that moment - I can still hear her.Sounds are memories, and they have a direct impact on ourselves."And then of course - I will tell you how it was, when I heard the singing ice for the first time. I had only heard it from recordings that the Swedish Artist Jonna Jinton has done - which are beautiful - you can find it on her youtube channel. Tack Jonna that you are sharing this sound with the world. And if you want to find the whole episode - you can do so on my homepage - www.annajelen.com in the podcast section. I hope you will enjoy it! Take care - bye! 

SPENDING CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR ALL ALONE?  This episode goes out to all the people who have to spend their Christmas and New Year all alone. Now, I am sure that at least some of your friends might be feeling alone these days. If you already have someone in mind, text a friend to listen to this episode to give him or her a moment of NOT feeling alone. The first good news I have is: being alone does not have to be painful.I know, because last year I spent Christmas and New Year all alone.This is my story, dated one year ago.   A little outtake: "I prepared a cup of tea, I took a pen, placed myself at the table and I wrote a Christmas card to myself:Merry Christmas Anna! Life is happening and today, you are the main character. It's Christmas and you are all by yourself. And that is alright. The saying, that Christmas is all about love is true - even if you are alone. You can send love with your thoughts to all your loved ones. And:  It's an optimal opportunity to exercise self-love. You deserve nothing else than kindness and warmth coming from within. Today, whatever you do, take your time. Nobody is waiting for you. Nobody is expecting anything from you. Like every other day, this is YOUR day, no matter the date. Let's give Christmas a touch of your gentleness and now go, and spoil yourself. Anna. “  Merry Christmas my dear ones out there! Yours, AnnA TOMORROW: 21st of December - for all my Member's A "before-christmas-zoom-speech" The Member's Club CHECK IT OUT Episode notes:Episode notes coming when I have more power/electricity... Thank you so much for being here, I appreciate this a lot. 

HAVE YOU FELT LIKE A LONESOME WOLF THIS YEAR SOMETIMES? Some days seem ordinary. But then something happens, and it changes everything. A week ago, it was a day like this.We are driving down a road in North Sweden, sometimes passing a village, but mostly we are just advancing through the giant northern forests.Samuel is driving. I'm the passenger. That's when I see him. Just for a brief moment. Welcome to another episode with me Anna Jelen.Living the year 2020 - you might feel like this lonesome wolf. Usually, we are surrounded by our wolf pack - but this year everything was different, and we might have become more like the wolf I saw, battling all alone for himself. Stay connected !

AN UNFORGETTABLE ENCOUNTER Some days seem ordinary. But then something happens, and it changes everything. A week ago, it was a day like this. Welcome to another episode with me Anna Jelen.Living the year 2020 - you might feel like a lonesome wolf. Usually, we are surrounded by our wolf pack - but this year everything was different, and we might have become more like a lonesome wolf, battling all alone. A wise man said once:"If you focus on what you don't have and on what you can NOT do - you will be miserable in here." And he puts his hand on his chest."There is one rule he sais: Focus on what you have, only on what you have and work with that."  A little outtake: "My dear listener; what is it that you have today? The one thing you have for sure? It's simple: it's you. You have yourself. Are you aware which chance and opportunity you have, for one time, to focus entirely on yourself! How about taking care of you? How about building a solid base? It's the perfect moment to work on your internal environment. The one, that will always be with you and which is your insurance on how you will react to future happenings.Buddha said:Every man and woman is the architect of their own healing and their own destiny."  Enjoy this short episode, hopefully inspiring you to focus on what you have right now. Take care!Yours, AnnA SAFE THE DATE: 21st of December - for all my Member'sA "before-christmas-zoom-speech" The Member's Club CHECK IT OUT Episode notes:Episode notes coming when I have more power/electricity... Thank you so much for being here, I appreciate this a lot. 

WHO'S THE CAPTAIN OF YOUR LIFE? The storm isn’t over yet, but I’m not afraid. Because I trust the captain. And the captain, that’s me.Let me take you to the sea and let’s check your boat if you are ready to enter some storms.  Because it’s like life. And this year, I believe the ones who are stable within had an easier year than the others. My question is, my dear listener, what do you do, to be stable within? And are you ready for all the weathers? And never think that you are out there all by yourself - oh no! We are all in this together! And if you do capsize, do not worry, someone will catch you. You might not see them, but there are captains everywhere cruising next to you.Perhaps even our routes will cross one day.  Stay connected !

IF YOU FAIL - FALL FORWARD Failure will always bring you closer to yourself and to your next goal  I was only 16, almost 17 years young when I participated at my second Swiss Telemark Championship and I will never forget that day. The story I am about to tell you is about failure and shame. Until today, I still handle failure the same way as I did as a teenager and I think that is a good thing. Listen and find out why.  Stay connected !

I am nervous, like hell. But I get down. And in the evening I write into my diary: many people don't do Telemark because they are ashamed to do it. Because it looks different and others might laugh.

Samuel and I have been coming here a few times, and we come here for several reasons. But above all, it’s about slow living and returning to the roots. Your life is happening right here and right now. The future does hardly exist. Another thing I highly appreciate: it’s not only slow living; it’s also a very simple life, meaning that the options are limited in every way. And that means you don’t have to choose. It’s the way it is, and it makes it easier. Your thoughts also get simpler: You have other thoughts in the morning when you get up: No worries about your to-do list because you are cold. You need to get the fire started. It takes you up to 15 minutes only to prepare the stove, it takes to 30 minutes until it gets a bit warm. The most important things that are on the grocery list are a box of matches, oil for the lamp and candles, otherwise, you will be in the dark. The choice of activities after work is very limited, like having a walk, swimming, sauna, raking leaves or repairing things. I think that’s still enough. Activities for the evenings: cooking, talking about life, making love, reading or writing or doing some evening stretching. Still clearly enough for me! Back to the roots.

And if you have ever been to Sweden, I suppose you believe in magic and you will understand that the story I'm about to tell you - is true. True in the world of magic. A little outtake:"There are traditional forests, and there are magical forests. If it's a traditional forest, no difference will be remarked. But when you enter a magic forest, there is a shift. Some may think it's hard to notice, but oh no, it's more than evident, because the colour changes immediately. Even on a rainy day,

I understand. But how about challenging yourself with this exercise?Go for a walk. Sit down with your journal and ask yourself, how many more years would you like to live? And why?Your body, your mind, your consciousness need to hear this. A little outtake:"When we look at life, most of us expect to live a long life. With a long life, we can easily have a bucket list. One day I will travel to Sri Lanka and do an ayurvedic retreat. One day I would like to own a Shelby.

THIS EPISODE CONTAINS ADULT LANGUAGE By expressing yourself - you live a more authentic and sincere life. Watch the video here : https://youtu.be/eoRIMW0l1Z4How, my dear listener out there, do you express yourself?Ever thought about it?I mean we all need a channel to get the things out, don’t we? This thing meaning nothing else than a thought, an emotion, a feeling, an idea, an unanswered question.  I have this image of our body and somewhere in there, there is this thing living. Sometimes it feels more like a beast. Sometimes it’s a voice. Or a pink question mark, or a wooden-doll like Pinocchio. From time to time you can hear it: „Let me out let me out.“ How do you let it out? Which way do you use to express yourself?  A little outtake:  "I believe, that we can create wounds by not allowing us to express ourselves. I know it’s not always easy, because we might not have been told to do so. This happens more than we know. Some get punished for it. Or banned. Because it’s not appropriate. But then we can learn it. With small steps. My dear ones, it’s never too late to start and that’s why I would make it a mission to find out how you can express yourself. It does not have to be spectacular. You could do in a gentle, smooth, easy and sensitive way. Let’s look at some examples..."  Enjoy my dear listener.  Wherever you are - I’m sending you my best wishes from the island. It’s November, the days are getting shorter, make yourself comfortable at home and be in peace with the time within. Take care!

DOUBTS ARE NO EASY BUSINESS... LISTEN TO THE PODCAST I had to find a way how to deal with them, so that I can move forward. In this episode, I will give you a few hints and ideas and hopefully there will be one that inspires you and helps you to deal with doubt. A little outtake: "When doubt arrives, I have that feeling of wanting to pick up the flamethrower and chase it away. But it does not work that way. It needs a bit more - time. The time it takes to take the walk and do the inner talk. That's exactly what I do. Always. I walk. I think. I look around. This combination takes me out of my pure chattering doubtful mind. It reminds me that there is a world out there and that my doubts are not the end of the world, even if it feels like it.During the walk, I analyze where doubt is coming from. In my case, I saw a pattern of several possible sources:A) Is this doubt coming from facts and figures?B) Are there insecure outside circumstances (an unexpected pandemic, for example, can lead to doubtful times)?C) Am I doing my rituals to be grounded and strong?D) Did I have enough sleep last night?E) Am I comparing myself with others?Let’s look at them a bit more closely." ENJOY this episode! I know times are strange and not easy for all of us. Wherever you are and live, I hope you are doing okay and more important, that you are healthy. Stay safe! annA  New Landing Page for my MEMBER'S CLUB will be online this week The Member's Club CHECK IT OUT Episode notes: Episode notes coming when I have more power/electricity...  Thank you so much for being here, I appreciate this a lot. 

A THOUGHT TO PONDER UPON... LISTEN TO THE PODCAST This is an episode from my special section in my Member’s Club called a "thought to ponder upon“.Here is one for all of us and if you want more, don't hesitate to visit my the club, which is still new-born but is growing steadily. My name is Anna Jelen, also called The Time Expert, and this is what I do; I think about the time we have. I dissect day-to-day topics with the perspective of the limited lifetime we have. And I am someone, who one day just will be forgotten. More about this; on the episode (7 minutes only).  I'm just writing an episode where it's about celebrating to be alive. Because as long as I am here, I will not take one day for granted and this is a good feeling which I would like to share with you. Coming soon.My dear listeners out there, take care and stay safe wherever you are.  Sincerely, AnnA  New Input on the READ section in the MEMBER'S CLUB The Member's Club CHECK IT OUT Episode notes: Episode notes coming when I have more power/electricity...  Thank you so much for being here, I appreciate this a lot. 

HOW IT FEELS WHEN THE IDEA HITS YOU... LISTEN TO THE PODCAST Imagine you are walking happily down a path in a forrest and suddenly you got hit by THE idea. You stop walking abruptly. You can’t move anymore. And you know, that this moment will change every plan you had because this is idea will take over. The force and the power of THE idea has not been measured yet, but all we know; it changes paths, plans and makes some people go crazy.  If THE idea is a good or bad idea, we do not know until the idea has been created. And if we should follow or resist an idea, that is what I talk about in this episode and I will tell you about the differences between an idea, a bigger idea and THE idea. Enjoy this episode and please note, that I have been hit by THE idea and it’s hard to focus right now.   A little outtake: "Samuel and I were brainstorming over the question: „How do I manage all the projects I have?“ I have learnt this brainstorming on a regular basis, because I believe we naturally tend to have too much on the plate and I, as The Time Expert, want to prevent this. The process looked like this:  I wrote down all the actual projects on a big white paper (yeah, I know…in the sauna - get’s a bit messed up, but works)Then I put a smiley or heart next to the projects that bring me joy. Same with the project that bring me money, I draw a money symbol next to it. The project which had both symbols on, that’s where I laid my focus on for the next 3 months. The projects with only one symbol were put on hold. And I even wrote down the exact hours I wanted to work on every project per day. This might work for some of you."  Sending you all my best wishes from a huge IKEA in Sweden, where we are uploading this episode and charging all our technical equipment.  Take care, bye!   New Input as soon as I have better connection and more power/electricity. Happening this week!

CREATIVITY HAS THE POWER TO IMPROVE OUR LIVES LISTEN TO THE PODCAST As I would die an inner death without creativity, I thought it’s time to tell you a bit more about our relationship and why I see creativity as a partner at work. I will also tell you a bit more about my emotional rollercoaster called „the circle of creativity“ which I experience every single week creating a new podcast episode.   A little outtake: "If you are a creator, you have to get used to, that you will be judged. Laughed at. Or praised. Just remind yourself, that it’s easier to be critique than a creator. They are just doing the easy job, while you are putting your heart in there. Get used to it and most important: accept that you are a beginner and always will be if you work with creativity. You will never reach the point where you will able to say: now I know how that works.  If this happens, creativity will be dead and gone. The best phrase in the process of creativity is, therefore, this: "Well, that’s interesting.“ If you can look at your work or at whatever shows up with curiosity, the path will be lighter and simpler.  I think many people stop with being creative because it’s about the outcome and not about the process."  My dear listeners out there, I hope this episode gave you a few smiles. And maybe it launched the idea to observe creativity with different eyes. Maybe you need it to sparkle up your days, or to entertain your brain, or just to see what else is possible. Thank you for letting me travel through your ears reaching your universe called the brain and maybe sometimes travel back down to your heart. Take good care. Bye.   New Input as soon as I have better connection and more power/electricity. Happening this week!

THOUGHTS ON CREATIVE LIVING LISTEN TO THE PODCAST When was the last time you looked back at your career path? Just imagine, everything you have done, to arrive where you are today. It’s an adventurous journey. In my today’s episode, which is quite a personal one and I hope not to bore you with this, I’ll invite you to find out a bit more about the creative living lifestyle. I’m broadcasting this from a little island in Sweden, sitting in a tiny yellow house, watching how a frog swims to the other side we call costa del sol and I wonder if he found himself disturbed by us and thought: „Goodbye fellows, I’m leaving.“  A little outtake: "But why isn’t anyone telling the kids to become a writer? A director? An actor? We are all creators, we have always been. We needed to create to survive. Then we continued to create because we liked it. The industrial times have taken this away from us. And today they say, it’s not secure to be a writer or an artist. But what if your kid is the happiest when it’s doing something creative? Why in the world should we take this away? Maybe we should have a little bit more trust."  I’m sending you my best wishes from this little island in Sweden, hoping that you are having fun exploring your days. Take care, ANnA.   For all the Member's: 1 online Zoom Workshop every month from October 2020 - Boomshakalaka!  The Member's Club CHECK IT OUT Episode notes: Episode notes coming when I have more power/electricity...  Thank you so much for being here, I appreciate this a lot. 

BIG QUESTIONS LISTEN TO THE PODCAST In short: we are on an Island without electricity - meaning: we need to keep things simple. :-) And focus on the most important  thing, which would be: upload this podcast episode. That's why the big introduction is missing. And: we don't need it. The only thing which must be said: this can change lives.   A little outtake: "I remember when I did it the first time. I sat alone at the table with my diary and my pen, trying not to cry. It was not the place to burst out in tears, because I was surrounded by happy couples, laughing, holding hands in a cheerful romantic cosy hotel. Well first, I did not know, that this was a hotel special for couples - which was very ironic, because I had just experienced a very hard and difficult breakup and needed to get away for a few days. So there I am. Just me and my diary and a pen." But why was I sad? Listen to the whole story.  Enjoy and take care! Yours, Anna  For all the Member's: 1 online Zoom Workshop every month from October 2020 - Boomshakalaka!  The Member's Club CHECK IT OUT Episode notes: From the beginning to the end: it's about THE BIG QUESTIONS we need to ask ourselves regularly.  Thank you so much for being here, I appreciate this a lot. 

WHAT'S SELF-LOVE ? LISTEN TO THE PODCAST I was fine without Self-Love. That's what I thought. Today I know, I do NOT want to miss it, because Self-Love has brought me through hard times. It's time to learn how to self-love yourself!   A little outtake: "What I admire about Lady Libertine is her ability to love herself deeply without connecting it with narcissism, vanity or selfishness. It reminds me of a moment I experienced a year ago, when Samuel had to take a job opportunity far away from home and we knew, we will not see each other as much as we were used to. I missed him so much and I felt miserable and I have to say, quite alone. I remember how I stood in the  bathroom looking in the mirror. I looked sad and if I am in a state I don’t like - I will change it. And I remember saying to myself:  time to be very good friends now AnnA! It was time to enjoy my presence. Because I was the only one there."

INSPIRATIONAL THOUGHTS ABOUT LIFE LISTEN TO THE PODCAST TIME AND LOVE  Today, you will hear my welcoming words for the participants of my TIME and LOVE Workshop, which starts tomorrow in the Swiss mountains. Maybe one day, you can join us. If not, there is still the podcast and my Member's Club where I will be giving one zoom workshop a month - for all my members - starting this October. But now, let’s dig into some hopeful inspirational thoughts. Enjoy! A little outtake: "A child is unashamed about what it needs or wants. Its whole organism shouts it out. As time passes, we feel intimidated, and we start to hold back. We give love to all the others, and in some cases, we forget to love ourselves. But self-love has so much to do with time and life! But I am not talking about the wellness weekend we offer ourselves. No, if I talk about self-love I mean by honouring yourself as the being you are and to take risks, to make bold decisions, to go on adventures and to do what needs to be done to remove the mask." Take care! Yours, Anna  For all the Member's: 1 online Zoom Workshop every month from October 2020 - Boomshakalaka!  The Member's Club CHECK IT OUT Episode notes: Intro 00:00 - 00:50 How do you want to live? 00:50 - 03:14 The denial of death 03:14 - 05:58 When life is challenging 05:58 - 07:13 Lean into the moment 07:13 - 07:40 Always remember this… 07:40 - 08:12 Some words on LOVE 08:12 - 09:55 Let’s do this 09:55 - 10:45 Cheesy Anna 10:45 - 11:47 Important note about the PODCAST 11:47 - end Important note for you: Every week you will get a podcast episode on all the podcast channels - as usual.

LAST SUMMER BREAK EPISODE https://youtu.be/g5IA99Gh_sQ LISTEN TO THE PODCAST IT'S TIME TO LET GO OF... ...my old business model. And you know what? I like this idea. This means: something NEW is coming. Something more digital, modern, creative. With a big focus on the PODCAST and of course on the MEMBER'S CLUB.  How about you? Time to let go of what? Someone?

I was nervous... https://youtu.be/g_c_l29kPvo LISTEN TO THE PODCAST WHY I BELIEVE THAT TIME IS ALL ABOUT MOMENTS I will never forget the moment where I understood: "Wow...that's what life is about!" It could have been a great insight coming to me by sitting on a fancy hotel terrace, watching the ocean, with a nice wisp of a warm wind...but no, I was almost dying, lying in the snow, not able to move, in the middle of the night - not knowing where I was. Thanks god there was Lupa... Who is Lupa? You will know soon. Enjoy this episode!   A little outtake: "Why are many people NOT experiencing these kind of moments in their everyday life. Because they are stuck in their tornado of life. They feel captured, almost imprisoned in a system, a matrix with to-do lists and deadlines.This tornado is a trap and it’s stealing our life time! When you are in there - you don’t see any other options, you feel like „Oh that’s just how it is. It’s life“ and with every year passing by, the tornado seems to swirl faster and faster and that’s when you feel, that time is running away and you loose control.Now. Now is the time - to get out of this tornado. How?" Take care and thank you for your trust.Sincerely,Anna By the way: I am producing new content for "after-the-summer-break" which will be over soon my dear ones out there!

NORMAL DAILY DANCE SCENE AT HOME... https://youtu.be/9FoM9JHXCWQ LISTEN TO THE PODCAST 5 SONGS ABOUT TIME  I hope, that you are enjoying the summer time, being outside, grounding yourself - but sometimes, it’s also okay to fly a little, isn’t it? Whenever I dance, I feel like flying and that is why I would like to re-publish this episode, where I introduce you to 5 songs about time. Hopefully inspiring you to put on your favorite music and to shake that boooty. Enjoy!   A little outtake: "Another great one is song is "don’t stop" - played by Fleetwood Mac. The song reflects the feelings after a separation - trying to look forward. Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow, Don't stop, it'll soon be here,It'll be, better than before, Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone.  Lovely one and great rhythm." Take care and enjoy the summer vibes.Love,Anna  By the way: for two reasons, I will deliver another 3 top-episodes from the last two years.

WATCH the VIDEO from 2019 https://youtu.be/jdzybqzMi-I LISTEN TRAPPED IN THE SYSTEM?  TOP 5 EPISODES - this is one of them Do you sometimes feel trapped in the system? A topic that always has interested me - because if that would be the case - that we are trapped in the system - we wouldn't be free would we? A thought that still gives me a shiver, first because it's a terrifying way to look at life and second because I remember the day when I was giving a speech in prison. This episode is about that day.Hopefully after listening to it, you will feel free, in peace and that it is about our attitude if we feel trapped or not. Enjoy this episode!   A little outtake: "The speech part is over, and we start the open discussion about my mentioned topics. I hear all kind of statements: „For us - there is no NOW. There are just the past and the future. Nothing else. The past is the reason why we are here. We have all done something bad. And the future - what will it bring?“ Or: „Did you think we have buddies in here? No, not really. We are far away from camaraderie.“ I did understand this when I was standing in the dental surgery room they have in prison. It’s used quite often..." Take care and enjoy the summer.Love,Anna  By the way: for two reasons, I will deliver another 4 top-episodes from the last two years. Reason 1: it's about topics which do not get old Reason 2: like this I can start to prepare autumn with new podcast episodes and a new format for YouTube (surprise!)  The Member's Club CHECK IT OUT Episode notes: Lines from my penpal prison inmate 00:00 - 02:26  Prison ambiance 02:26 - 03:45  Intro 03:45 - 05:00  A day in prison 05:00 - 13:57  My penpal friend David 13:57 - 15:23  How free are we? 15:23 - 17:00  Touching skin 17:00 - 18:28  Experiencing monotony 18:28 - 20:52  A scary moment in prison 20:52 - 22:15  Not pretending to be normal 22:15 - end

WATCH the VIDEO from 2019 https://youtu.be/GEGWLrKhB_0 LISTEN TOP 5 EPISODES - this is one of them I loved writing this episode and I am still touched knowing, that there are many people out there, living a life like Krone: in addiction, in boredom, in monotony and in loneliness. Let's inspire them to enjoy life!  A little outtake: "These are Ancient Greek words, and they both represent TIME. The best way to differentiate between Chronos and Kairos is to see time as either a flowing river which carries us away (Chronos) or a quiet lake which we swim in (Kairos). We all experience time as both, all the time, in whatever we do.  In Chronos, we are stressed—in Kairos; we are refreshed.Chronos measures time in seconds, minutes, hours, days, years etc. this is the word which measures Quantity of time.Kairos measures time in the best moments of life; it measures the Quality of time. It does not measure Minutes, but it measures moments. The most beautiful, right, magical and opportune moments.Where are you living in? In the Quantity of time or in the Quality of time?" Watch the funny video . Who said I couldn't be a man? ;-)   Take care you all, Anna  By the way: I will give you a summer break for another 2 weeks. I will still publish every Sunday, as usual - but I will publish another 2 of my most listened podcast episodes from the last 2 years. In 3 weeks, I will be back with new episodes on AUDIO and new video animations - stay tuned and stay with me, it would be an honor.

WATCH the VIDEO from 2019 https://youtu.be/wcYxyv2HNLE LISTEN A blast from the past  This episode was liked by many of you - maybe because we look at success with different eyes. When I heard, that the path to the top is combined with a lot of struggle, I did not want to go there. Today I know, there are other ways to success. And anyway, what is success?  A little outtake: "I have never really understood the metaphor or the comparison of climbing a mountain and success. Psychologicaly it did not work for me. The top? It feels, as if there is just one top. And I always asked myself; and than? What comes after the top? The descent? The emptiness? The downward spiral? So whenever I sat in a meeting or in a workshop where someone was taking the metaphor of „come one guys - let’s climb this mountain together and we will arrive at a high success level“ - internally I was feeling like: „Oh no please, leave me behind. I’ll stay down here and I’ll be the one who will call the helicopter if you need some help." I was never eager to climb this mountain of success." Watch the beautiful video because after a month, it was the first time we saw the sun - just for a few minutes, and that was touching.  Take care, Anna  By the way: I will give you a summer break for 3 weeks. But I will still publish every Sunday, as usual - but I will publish 3 of my most listened podcast episodes from the last 2 years.

WATCH the VIDEO from 2017 https://youtu.be/lTmNFnchlHM LISTEN Are you using, spending, managing or creating your time?  This episode was one of my favourite ones - especially the video version from October 2017. Check out the video. That day we still did not have filmed the weekly vlog, and we fancied to go for a round of golf. That's when I had the idea: I will give one time management advice per hole. Short and sweet.  A little outtake: "Welcome to nine time management tips à la Anna. Time management à la Anna? Yes, because I don't do classic time management. I'm happy it does exist - all those techniques and methods on how to manage the time. But I talk differently about time management. I don't think that we should apply time management. I believe that we should live time management. That it shall be our daily business about how we use our time."  Take care, Anna  By the way: I will give you a summer break for 4 weeks.

WATCH (coming in a few hours) LISTEN 108 DAYS DIVIDED INTO3 CHAPTERS This time I will take you right into the ring of a towering thunderstorm in the middle of the ocean.  Welcome to another intensive moment in your life.This virus has changed many stories. This experience is shaping us. I know people who have lost some of their loved ones to COVID-19, and it makes my heart sad. For all the others, I hope you were able to expand your consciousness. Let me tell you how I experienced the last 108 days from the day I returned home with the last flight from Russia. A little outtake: "I have no idea in which situation you were before the virus came into our lives. But that’s how I feel: that many of us were in a storm - lost - and the virus gave us a break to return to simplicity and the result of it was clarity. I am sure that you also hope, that our society and people can hold on to this and to create a rhythm that is more healthier than being dashed from one side to the other. From the bottom of my heart, I wish that you have the force to stay away from the tornado of life. Put on your life vest and protect yourself. " The Member’s Club is online!In the q&a category you will find myself answering the question "Anna - what about the book? "And also how I manage distractions at work. In the reading category, you will find two of my favourite podcast episodes in written form - and there is a mini-course about taking breaks and why they are the link to be productive and efficient. Take care, Anna By the way: I will give you a summer break for 4 weeks.

WATCH https://youtu.be/k8uBSfIRqaA LISTEN WHY WE NEED TO TAKE REST SERIOUSLY  This week another short reading and I will tell you about how I experienced taking a break in a great stressing moment and how this changed my view on „taking a break“.  The book is called „REST - why you get more done when you work less“, written by Alex Soojung-Kim Pang.  A little outtake: "I argue that we misunderstand the relationship between work and rest. Work and rest are not polar opposites. You cannot talk about rest without also talking about work. Writing about only one is like writing a romance and naming only one of the lovers. Rest is not work’s adversary. Rest is work's partner. They complement and complete each other." The Member’s Club will be live the upcoming week.And this is only the beginning. It will grow, every week and it will become the universe of time. Do you need a weekly reminder to live your life (in form of articles, videos and much more?).

A thought to ponder upon…

WATCH THE VIDEO https://youtu.be/RbBzgd0HE4M Find the AUDIO podcast everywhere : OWN YOUR TIME  This time I will, again, take you to a special place. But I can’t tell you too much about it… Just this:- it’s about owning your own time.- It’s about walking the path of life.- It’s about saying no if your heart does not scream YES! A little outtake: "You know, in life you will make many encounters. You will have a bunch of loved ones - including family and friends, and it's good to take good care of them. The day will come, where you will be happy to have them on your side. And there is nothing more beautiful than giving them your love.But there are also, I call them the short encounters. Suddenly they are there. Maybe they stay, maybe not. Let them decide.And then, there are others: the ones trying to convince you how to live your life. They will tell you "what's normal "and what you should be doing. Let them talk, but question everything you hear because this might not be true for you. Some will say you should say yes. But the thing is, you should say NO if your heart does not scream YES! Remember this: learning to say no to many things is the way to gain the greatest freedom and flexibility possible." Enjoy and take care. AnnA By the way: if you like my work, please share it with just one friend of yours.

Or take a courageous decision? Isn’t it the perfect time right now, to be more courageous?  This episode is different from the others. For once, I would like to share a talk with you I had with Dorie Massumi, the founder of the platform „Take the courage“.

But don’t worry, you can get out of there and it’s important to get out of there to focus on which is far more important: to create solutions. A little outtake: "….welcome ladies and gentleman to another episode with me, Anna Jelen The Time Expert, someone who looks at life and topics with the perspective of time. Someone who is deeply touched by the latest happenings with the ongoing riots. I have to tell you; there is something that worries me. It was already visible during the Corona times. It looks like an ongoing process and even more noticeable with the latest #blacklivesmatter happenings in the USA. I'm talking about angry people. I see them. I hear them. I feel them. How about you? Do you see them as well or maybe: are YOU angry right now? With this episode, I would like to devote myself to the topic of anger and rage, with the perspective of time and with a little side anecdote from my psyche.“ 17 minutes and I will take you to the cave of rage, but don’t worry, only for a short period of time and then I will tell you my thoughts on this topic, also trying to come up with some solutions.Hope you like this one.

https://youtu.be/U9o48M9BC9s Find the podcast everywhere : WHAT'S COURAGE? Big question. But what I know is this: it’s a limitless topic and I loved to bath in it.   A little outtake: "Courage has many faces.Some think it's courageous to climb the Mount Everest. But how about a woman breaking up with her husband, facing some hard and adverse consequences, THAT's courageous. To speak your mind. To say no. To make a coming out, to let a tarantula climb your hand, to hold on to your principles, to face misfortune. To accept to be judged and critizised. All this is courageous. For the protagonist to go to Africa as well. We are all on different levels. Courage exists on different levels. Accept also, if you don't dare to do something then maybe it's just not important enough. Don't compare yourself with others. Stay on your level of courage and start working from there.“For myself, I have 3 big bold topics: Number 3: To live a life authenticallyNumber 2: To remove the maskNumber 1: To accept to be a beginner, to start over again  If you want to hear more and if you are interested that I take you on a safari to South Africa, while you can lean back and relax, just take 20 minutes to listen to my podcast.

Let’s look at some very valuable insights Dr. Philip Zimbardo and John Boyd have made. A little outtake: „In reevaluating how we think about time - since time is more valuable than money - we’re led to ask: are we really putting the right valuations on time? Are people with the biggest bank accounts truly the wealthiest people in the world? How wealthy is someone who spends all of his time making money but doesn't take the time to enjoy life? ….. A financial planner helps to determine our investment strategy based upon your personal investment goals - if only there were such a person to call Upton for investing time.“ Hahaha - well, that is exactly my job and my mission with this podcast. Every week I am inviting you to reevaluate your life and how you spend your time.

I have something else that pushes me. Listen to this episode and you will find out what it is.  A little outtake: „I see ambition like an iceberg. When we look at it from far away, we only see the tip of the iceberg, where we believe that ambition is something we have to strive for. "If you want to get better at something, you need to be ambitious.“ It's taught us early to be ambitious, because we have the idea that ambitious people always get there, where they want to go. But if you start to come closer to the iceberg and you dig deeper, meaning looking at Ambition from different sides, say from the philosophical or psychological side or with a perspective of time, you start to see, that ambition isn't that glamorous at all.." Listen or watch the whole episode and find out what I did, when I was 17 years old and lived in the UK.  Take care my dear listener out there.My best wishes to you, AnnA Feel free to leave a comment.

You can watch the video episode here : https://youtu.be/4cqtkUKh5Zg Find it everywhere : What's intuition ? In the todays episode I will tell you a story that still gives me goosebumps when I think about it. And we explore how it feels when intuition comes knocking on your prefrontal cortex.  A little outtake: „How intuition functions, where it comes from - we don't know much about it yet. It's a mystical topic. Would I have believed it, if this night in Mexico wouldn't have happened? I don't know. But what I know is how to tell the difference between intuition and a false feeling.A false feeling is often bedded in fear or uncertainty. It's nervous energy with a chattering mind. And maybe even your body feels tight. Could feel like this: "Okay - I will take this decision. I will go for A. Yes. Or…or maybe not..? Is A really the good decision? Hmm…why not b?" Whenever it's like this, you should look at it a bit more profoundly. It could be the ego, fear or desire showing up. They are more like chatters. With intuition it's different. Intuition is very clean and pure. It comes, tells you the message and then it's gone again. In and out. When it shows up, you just know, without really knowing why you know. It gives us the ability to understand something directly without analytic reasoning, bringing the gap between the conscious and non-conscious parts of our mind. Intuition is pure clarity. There is no question about it; you just know. Like I did. At the beach in Mexico. It was a warm summer evening..." Listen or watch the whole episode to hear the story.  Take care my dear listener out there. Thank you for being here. Best wishes, AnnA Feel free to leave a comment or send me an email via the contact page.

You can watch the video episode here : https://youtu.be/yp4nO6gqh9Y What’s the plan for "after-COVID19" ?    After weeks of deep thinking, questioning and living the lockdown, I am feeling ready to create a „after-COVID19-plan“.  I have created a questionnaire with 5 simple questions which shall help you to avoid to fall back into the wheel of a hamster.  If you work with these questions, you will feel the direction you want to go in the future. They will motivate you to go with confidence into the re-opening. It's such a beautiful opportunity to see this as a huge chance for your life.  Outtake: "There is before COVID 19, and there is after COVID 19. The after is slowly slowly entering our lives. The governments are giving us new guidelines. All the different federations are making up new rules. Fact is, the society is bit by bit boosting up life again. Everyone is reacting to the "re-opening ". Don't you think it would be sad if we would just fall back into a system without trying to take benefit of all this and to make it better? I have created a questionary with only five questions to plan the upcoming times and to avoid falling back into the wheel of a hamster or as I call it, the tornado of life.  In the last weeks, we had to live a new way of life. Everything was closed, except for the supermarkets. Not allowed to be in a group with more than five people. 2 meters distance to every person you meet. Trying not to touch too many surfaces. A handful of planes leaving the airports where usually hundreds of them fly every single day. Kids homeschooling. Introducing the home office. The most crowded streets in the world empty! Every speech and conferences cancelled. People losing jobs and worst of it: people losing loved ones to a tiny little shitty virus. It's like a cheap science fiction movie. Most of us agree that the coronavirus is a wake-up call. Remember my question: is it enough to make a change? Do you think it's enough to take responsibility? I would like to say "I hope so "- but I don't believe in "hoping for something ". Just lazy people hope. I believe in doing. Even if it is "doing nothing ". And that is why now, it is the perfect time to create a plan to start to live a better life than before so that this COVID 19 makes sense. Shall we sit down and look at some critical questions?"  You will be able to find the questionnaire as a document in the Member’s Club. Coming up very soon.  Enjoy your day and take care. AnnA Do you have a plan? Feel free to leave a comment or send me an email via the contact page.

Here are a few outtakes: * Playing can be a useful tool to change a boring situation to a funny situation, to transform procrastination into a challenge and to boost up your relationship * When we are kids, we play the whole time. Don't you miss it? As a kid, we learn from playing. And it is no difference for us as an adult. * Now I am sure you have experienced the time-phenomena when you play a game: time flies. Let me answer why this is the case. * Let's look at the HOW we can bring some players-mentality into your ordinary life. * I always had one rule: Playing must be fun, nothing else.

You can watch the video episode here : https://youtu.be/xqRKgFQDXXk Normality has two sides - on which one are you? This topic makes me go fully in. In today's episode I would like to talk about the fine line between normality - as a place where we feel safe and protected. And normality as a dangerous hidden trap - which can destroy a marriage, a job or time of your life. An outtake: "In our culture it's normal is to have a house, a family, a car, a job and friends. Jeans, blouses, unicolour t-shirts, suits - that's normal to wear. Brown hair, red hair, blonde, black or grey hair, that's also normal. And it's normal to wear shoes. Also, in nature. Have a good degree at school. Should be normal. We have also been taught how to be normal. Don't talk too much. Not too loud. When someone is talking, do the humming sometimes because that shows active listening and when you speak in front of a public, don't put your hands into the pockets. In general: to BE normal means to fit in and follow the rules. You know, don't stand out. Lay low." What do you think? Leave a comment !

Cancer stopes you right away, and you go into treatment.In the time of treatment, you are often too weeks to do many things. So you have time. Time to think about life after cancer. Time to think about what you will change. Time to think about the fundamental questions. Cancer makes you change things in life.

https://youtu.be/QPGFlhrIoPU How much does it take to make a society change ? Or with other words: how much do we have to suffer - to change? What do you think? Look at the world before the virus: How many times did we hear someone saying: we can’t keep going on like this - we are destroying the world and ourselves. We knew. And some of us tried. But it wasn’t enough. So my question is: Is this virus enough to make us change?What do you think? Leave a comment Want to buy time? Visit my shopTake care my dear listener out there!

AUDIO PLAYER KILL THE VIRUS WITH OPTIMISM We know that our words and thoughts have a huge impact on our body. Let’s enhance our immune system with some optimism. My dear listeners out there. In a time like this, we need to be optimistic. From the bottom of my heart, I believe in this. Fact is: our businesses are suffering from the corona virus. Mine very badly. So now we have two choices: (1) we could be worried or (2) we sit down, think and create a plan. I propose we do (2). Sit down. Think. And create a plan. I truly believe in remaining calm and to stay cool. Look at the facts straightforwardly. Don’t react too emotional. It’s not about surviving - even if it may seem like this, but you can look at it from another view. It’s about improving. This crisis will make you improve, nothing else. Improve. It will make you stronger then you ever were before. You will get out of this thinking: wow - what a ride and I took it. Stand up and show us what you are made of. Let’s rumble! But first: take care and stay safe. AnnA Do you want support my podcast ? Visit my shop !

IS YOUR SMARTPHONE TAKING OVER CONTROL?  THIS TIME THE PODCAST IS ON VIDEO AND AUDIO Are we addicts to our smartphones? Do we know our individually healthy limits? A little outtake of today's episode: "Let me tell you a short story about a teenage boy I knew. He was a smartphone addict.  The plan was: to turn off the smartphone on Sundays. We called it the mobile free Sunday. It was the boy having the idea because he somehow suffered from being on the phone the whole time and he was just curious enough to see how it is without a phone.  It took him about 3 weeks to be "psychologically ready". But then he was. " Listen to what happened, when Sunday Number 1 arrived... Did you anyone who needs to hear this? Feel free to share. THANK YOU.
