I’d like to take the time to share what’s essential from my past.

I’ve lived a unique life so far. I haven’t progressed as most people do, following the standard path of school, university, entering the workforce, and advancing within their field a few times while relocating perhaps three to five times before turning 41.

I grew up in Dalarna, in Smedjebacken and Ludvika, by the lakes of Barken, Leran and Väsman, at the foot of a mountain with skiing slopes and the forests in the vicinity, with my family, relatives, and many friends. I went to school, worked part-time in restaurants and the service industry, and studied natural sciences with a focus on mathematics and computer science. It was during this time that I discovered an interest in photography and media production. I started experimenting with my first camera, a Konica Minolta, and learned many techniques while acquiring fundamental photo editing skills. I was also fascinated by creating environments, mostly using level design tools to craft game worlds.

I then studied at a professional university for two years, specializing in advanced media production, concept development, and project management. The education was aimed at the gaming industry, but I soon realized that was not where I belonged. Instead, I used my individual project time to niche myself as a creative director and concept artist, focusing on interactive entertainment, hype, buzz, and community building. I studied companies that created immense campaigns and intricate mysteries, engaging massive audiences through innovative experiences.

I remember walking past Byxshoppen in Falun, dreaming of owning a business and wearing a suit every day. They had some Tiger suits that I adored.

I started a company with a friend, and without a real budget or substantial foundation, our primary asset was our capability. We began producing webpages, high-end programming solutions, marketing materials, logos, and other graphic design, as well as basic photography and commercial videos. We secured a few clients—one was a change consultant who had previously been a senior executive at one of Sweden’s most established banks. Another was an entertainment center offering laser tag, go-karting, and similar activities. We also built a website for a social care company that supported individuals in need.

Beyond this, we designed and conceptualized an intricate community platform named Wintown. It encompassed all the standard features of a social network—profiles, forums, and interactive functionalities—but also included quiz sections about companies, multiplayer games, advertisement pages, and many additional features. At its core was a point-based system, where every valuable contribution to the community was rewarded with points that could be exchanged for premium features and functionalities. The project was 90% complete, but unfortunately, it never launched.

Seizing the day, hobby working and working for tip

A friend and I once took a last-minute trip. We went to the airport without a plan, with a small budget and a determination to seize the day. A few hours later, we were seated on a ferry to Rhodes from Crete, with no idea what to expect, watching the coastline lights slowly pass by as the moonlight turned the rolling sea into silver.

A friend had arranged jobs for us at a bar in the middle of Rhodes’ bar street. We sat down at a restaurant, had some Gyros, and then headed over to bar street. Just ten meters from the balcony behind the bar, the bright blue waves were crashing in, and tanned, smiling people emerged from the ocean to welcome us.

We had an amazing season, with countless stories to tell. I remember having a shot of Ouzo to get in the mood before my first day of selling tickets on the beach. A few weeks later, I had mastered the skill—I could walk up to anyone, whether it was the most attractive women or the most confident and charismatic men, and convince them to join our parties, attend dinners, pre-party with us, or visit the waterpark together.

Before long, I became the PR Manager. I produced small booklets for ticket sales, designed basic event posters, and every night, I would walk up and down bar street, shaking hands with managers and promoters. On my nights off, I would go out, be treated to shots and drinks, and with our workers’ discount, partying was affordable and effortless.

Love and despair

While home in 2007 or 2008, working in a warehouse and trying to establish myself in Stockholm, I met a woman who was half Swedish, half Spanish. We became friends and shared an intimate relationship. I developed strong feelings for her and had hopes for something more serious, so you can imagine my despair when she announced one day that she was moving permanently to the Dominican Republic. Her father was successful there, and she saw greater opportunities—a stronger foundation and more paths forward.

In desperation, I left everything, took a last-minute flight, and boarded the plane with her without a hotel or any real plan.

Fortunately, she arranged for me to stay in an apartment owned by her father, sparing me from being stranded in a relatively dangerous country.

However, things did not unfold as I had hoped. I lost my confidence and had no foundation there. I didn’t know the language, even though I studied hard to acquire basic skills for shopping and everyday interactions. But I could not express myself or behave in a confident, charismatic, or sophisticated manner without a grasp of the language or local customs.

I still had some unforgettable experiences. I even danced merengue on the town square with a reporter, who was filming a TV segment about it. When I went home, it was with a broken heart and a shattered life. I had no apartment, and my job was lost when I left.

Pursuing what I believed to be true love had set me back, but it also gave me a sense of destiny.

I remember walking in Stockholm during those years, listening to “Beautiful Disaster” by Kelly Clarkson—it resonated deeply with my situation.

“I was a beautiful disaster.”

Go hard or go home

The bar street of Rhodes could be a tough place, requiring you to stand your ground and deliver results.

But it was nothing compared to what was yet to come.

When I got home, I lived temporarily for a while before teaming up with a friend from the bar street. We lived in modest conditions and had many discussions about what to do next—which jobs to take and how to move forward. I found an advertisement for a telemarketing job in Barcelona, and we wrote a joint application that received a positive response.

A friend arranged accommodations for us with someone he knew in Barcelona. We booked our tickets and boarded the plane. Somewhere inside, I had hope that I would learn Spanish this way and create a better situation—perhaps even reconnecting with the woman I had fallen for earlier.

However, when we arrived in Barcelona, we were in for a surprise. The apartment was far from ideal and had no warm water. I remember standing there in possession of not much, in front of the mirror. The woman I had went to the Dominican with had told me I could be a model. I thought to myself in front of the mirror: “You can never be a model, not like this”.

The job was to sell razors over the phone—it was manageable but far from ideal.

Before long, we moved out and into a hostel, where we met some interesting Greek girls and had some nice days.

One thing from the hostel that stuck with me, I don´t know exactly how it happened, but I stumbled on a poem that resonated with the situation:

“Dirt is only dirt, even in golden cases, but roses will always be roses, even in broken vases”.

Somehow that for me was about believing in yourself, knowing your value, worth and having a good intention and behaviour. That even in a bad situation, a good person who knows his value is still a good person with value. And even in a good situation, in the shine of wealth and with the smell of sweet perfume, a person is only as good as their intentions, attitudes and behaviours. 

Blistered feet

I was not content with life in Barcelona, so I started exploring other opportunities. That’s when I stumbled upon an  advertisement about selling tickets for a beachside club in Phuket.

I called the manager, and decided to go. I arranged a ticket, and one night, I rolled my bags across the streets of Barcelona and made my way to the airport.

I arrived in Phuket with only 20€ in my pocket.

The manager helped me with accommodations for the first week, and during this time, I had an experience that was both beautiful and terrible. I had no money for flip-flops, and the only shoes I had were too warm and too worn out. I walked barefoot from my hostel to the club. The streets were so hot that I had to jump between the shadows to avoid burning my feet. I was far away from home, so far away that by word of mouth, it would have taken thousands of conversations to tell anyone. 

I went to the club, got initiated, and was shown around. I walked alone into the sea, where the waves were crashing in, and felt as if I had stepped into one of nature’s paradises.

That same day, I got my hands on a ticket book and hit the beach. As a master of the craft, I sold 17 tickets that very day and could easily afford flip-flops, a good meal, and accommodations for the week. In various ways I made for the rent and life for the day.

Within a short time, I was promoted to Sales Manager, taking responsibility for both sales and event management. I would sit on the stairs with plastic cups for everyone, ordering drinks from the bar as I pleased—always with a glass of Southern Comfort in hand.

For various reasons, I had to go home, and the job ended. Mistakes or misfortunes—with a flavor of injustice from the past—called me back. The real truth about this is still somewhat unclear. What was the first one really like?

Back and forth

Over the next few years, I went back and forth between Sweden and Phuket, trying to establish a stable situation.

I arrived in Phuket with nothing, but after a few seasons, I had built business acquaintances, a strong reputation, VIP cards for major clubs, and an expansive network.

One day, a dear friend—who has since passed away (rest his soul)—invited me to a facility outside the major commercial areas.

There, I met billionares who had bought a whole mountainside and made hobby-works for them to build portfolio and a study case. I also met entrepreneurs, friends and interesting people. Alltough, it was far from home, and holidaying or living abroad is nice, but at the core, I´m a Scandinavian. A western person, more close at heart to Europe and America, both personally and businesswise – as a professional. It was nice being here and getting to know people, contributing to eachother synergetically and experiencing this, but my harmony and true self is elsewhere. I apreciate the friendships and the partnerships I´ve had and how we´ve been synergetic for eachother for the duration that we were. But my true career and path is western. They are amazing over there though and they do a quality thing for sure.

Steven Covey wrote in an book something like:
“Before you climb, be certain that the ladder is against the right wall.”
Otherwise it´s just a long way down and up another wall again. Unless you can stilt walk the thing to another building of course.

I sent my first invoice through frilansfinans.se sometime in 2010. It was for Nöjesgruppen in Kalmar for event posters. The platform gave me the freedom to operate like a business while handling accounting, taxes, and payroll. It allowed me to make basic deductions and provided some insurance coverage.

I started working professionally through this system and built my first consultancy webpage, empowered by my skills, merits, and assets—but still with much to attain.

In late 2011, I left Phuket to build a foundation in Sweden and truly establish my future.

I handled everything that needed handling and started working diligently, setting a clear direction upwards and progressing—solving whatever had to be solved and acquiring whatever was needed. I sought out opportunities, solutions, and strategies to build the life I aspired to.

Sometime during these years, I remember being back in Sweden, staying at my late cousin’s place. I was in the shower, and I didn’t have much to my name. I looked at my hands and thought:

“With these very hands and my intellect, I can build anything for myself.”

I realized and embraced the fact that I could be proactive.

Upwards – phase 1

Based on my qualifications, business merits, and the contact networks I had acquired in Rhodes, Phuket, Linköping, within the nightlife industry, and in general, I started working as a consultant.

I moved around, living temporarily and renting furnished accommodations in Dalarna, Linköping, Malmö, Stockholm, and Gothenburg. I worked about 50% with traditional marketing, web development, graphic design, and advertising, and 50% with nightclub and event marketing.

Over these years, I challenged myself to work with demanding, high-end companies. Some of the clients included:

• Studio Fitness and Margot à Deild Fitness
• RT-Enterprise
• Savback Helicopters – in collaboration with Airbus Eurocopters
• European Barschool
• Xenonkungen.com (Market consultant)
• Nikki Beach (Freelance graphic designer), producing an article involving Armand Dé Brignac
• Nöjesgruppen Kalmar, Stad, Harrys, Vallen/Palace – 100+ DJs & artists
• Slice of Life & Love Art (Plosjö / Alberti)
• Mondoblog (Acting Manager)
• Celebrities and famous bloggers
• Fitness models
• MyShowroom.se (Concept development, branding & graphic design)
• Harrys, Riva, Sliver & Günther (Release event for Günther’s new single)
• Rydeström Events (Harrys Fredagsklubben, Amiralen, Slagt, Prins Bernhard, Summerclub)
• Toni J & Eddie S Events (Adelgatan, Breeze, Hipp, Etage, S1, KP, CL&GR)
• Henneman Events & Vestito
• BP-Events (Trädgår’n, Baroque, Skandinavium, 4+ clubs in Gothenburg)
• Top Bloggers on Tour (D.E & Imnext)
• Various other companies
• Started my own VIP blog network Platinum Circle with famous models

*When you look at this, sometimes you just see the tip of the iceberg. Many of theese business are part of larger corporate groups or hotel chains etc. One of theese corporations have a revenue of about 11% of Swedens total BNP and work at the absolute peak of possible industry and technology, with the most advanced products and services and luxurious high-tech that exist. To have touched their logo and product and to have been related to the extent I have been is breathtaking. And many of theese jobs involved DJ´s, artists, models, celebrities, famous brands etc. I have touched thousands of names and logos. If you´re more curious, google the webpages or profiles and read more.

Working with all of this, I’ve grown significantly and gained valuable insights into business methods and market dynamics. It has made me a capable entrepreneur and a stronger individual. It meant significant personal insights, development of qualification, victories and established a foundation for me. A solid, rigorous foundation, to stand on for the future. The past had been solved and I had improved.

“You can never be a model”

I used what I had acquired businesswise to create modeling opportunities. Sometimes, you have to acquire three things to create a fourth.

I had made a page featuring models I offered for modeling and placed myself amongst them.

I was in Magaluf, doing a piece for Mondoblog about Grabbarna Grus, and I sent in a spontaneous request to Nikki Beach there.

I was called for an interview, and after noticing my handsome face and admirable physique, they asked me to be the wedding model and to recruit a bride for a shoot.

Unfortunately, the shoot was moved to Miami for various reasons before I could find my bride.

But I will always feel, deep inside, that:

“Yes, I am recognized as worthy of modeling and getting married at a Nikki Beach—I can even be the example and icon of it.”

And honestly my consultancy pic is a model photo, labeled everything I have achieved.

Setback and reset

In 2016, I had somewhat of an entrepreneurial and fame-related setback or what might be called an accident. A situation, founded in perhaps too enthusiastic proactive approaches and attempts to resolve bad results, got out of hand, and the process took a wrong turn, ultimately ending in a misfortunate way. There was also some bad and potentially inaccurate information about me revealed that I had to deal with. About the first one, the really first one in this sequence of events, what was the originally first one really like that this all happened somewhat based on?

Many aspects were complicated in this situation—what democracy, ethics, and social adequacy really meant and what everyone and everything involved truly were. What was truly allowed and obliged according to the constitutions and laws.  What the difference between private/personal and official/professional was like was also complicated. Sometimes in an official capacity, in an official role, you have to tolerate people and behaviours that you can disencourage and deny privately. I absolutely respect anyones personal and private authority over their private life. But when people have a public role in an organization, I expect them to deliver that role in a democratic way. Public offers, areas, activities, cultural zones, possibilities and channels, especially if they are official for something that could be called a peoples culture must be equally open and accessible for everyone, without exception. And the necesseary functions to manage your participation, content or personal information must be provided. You must be able to solve your issue or supply your inquiry. And to approach what´s interesting to you in a proactive and creative socially adequate way. Imagine that you put up signs allover your organization and activity: “Fame”, “Hollywood stories”, “Blogging industry”, “TV-show”, “Auditions and talent demonstrations”, “Various press”, “Various TV-shows”. What is then socially adequate about this? What has been communicated, allowed, premiered, examplified etc. ? And what is socially adequate about me and my career and activity? That you have invited?
Anything you offer should be available to me, and anything you demonstrate, tolerate or reward others for should be allowed by me.  What´s shared or affected should be allowed to solve issues regarding. 

My life and entrepreneurial journey was advanced; I had worked very hard for a long time, and everything I had achieved and rightfully earned was immensely dear to me. I was also highly proactive—caring about things most people wouldn’t bother with. The circumstances were complex, and what was shared or affected was ambiguous.

It was a situation that was demanding and difficult to navigate successfully. It took significant paradigm shifts to resolve misconceptions and misunderstandings that led to the process and the sequence of events.

Sometimes, we have the right core reasoning and intent, but the methods we attempt fail.

Sometimes we also act in advanced proactive ways if we have advanced professions, business-setups, personal brand and fame strategies, publicity strategies etc. You might approach things in a proactive way. That isn´t obvious to “normal” people. You might create drama, a scene, act or behave in entertaining ways, perform publicity stunts, apply or pitch in proactive and creative ways etc. 
If someone reacts negatively and misunderstands theese behaviours, you might need to communicate and explain your behaviours and explain what it´s really like, your intentions and other things, apologize, restore respect etc.

We all have a sense of what is socially adequate. For example, if you go to a slapping contest, you might even be allowed to gently slap one of the contestants a little—even though this is not normally allowed and considered assault. If you open up an area and put up a sign that says “water fight”, expect to get wet.

In certain industries or cultural zones, a more relaxed and free behaviour might be customary. You are allowed to act out more. If anyone reacts negatively or takes offense, the norm is to explain and restore respect and achieve understanding, clear out experiences, expectations and intents etc. The norms and customs are different between, for example, the banking and real estate industries and the fame, blogging, nightlife, and entertainment industries. It´s common with publicity stunts, acting out dramatically if conflicts happen, publishing beefs, creating valuable content, proactive pitches and applications, proactive demonstrations of entertainment, acting, performing etc. There´s also a ton of examples posted all-over the web with celebreties who are extreme and accepted. The nightlife industry, blogging industry, celebrity industry, music industry and entertainment industry are somewhat intertwined, and if you are someone somewhere in all of this, you are usually met with friendliness and acknowledgement. Some bloggers even fake conflicts just to create drama and by that valuable traffic. I managed a whole blog portal and had a logo that had been visible on 100+ nightclub events allover the major cities of Sweden. I also had internationally famous clientel and famous brands in my portfolio from allover the world. I had managed events and worked with models, celebrities, event-makers, nightclubs, restaurants, artists and much more. I had my place in all of this and I had the righ to act my concept and interest and to proactively approach what was interesting for me or solve what was important to me. 

Anyone can understand that you could walk up and high-five an entertainment person in the club and say, “How ya doing, Businessname?”, but you might not approach a senior executive from a bank that way.

Social adequacy varies. In certain industries, very creative and dramatic behaviours could and should be seen as socially adequate. Proactive approaches to theese type of professions, coupes, dramatic publicity etc.

I also believe, that solving misinformation, misconceptions, misunderstandings, problems, disagrements etc. in accordance with good manners is considered universally socially adequate. To restore respect and solve what needs to be solved, with good intent and in a respectful way. It is never considered to be offensive. It can´t be used of course, with ulteriour motives, but must be genuine. The same goes for approaching people in their role or capacity without a personal or private ulterior motive. 

Some things in this country that are constitutionally guaranteed didn’t quite—in my humble opinion—work out. Perhaps the outcome would have been different if these basic guarantees had been provided.

It is also important for me with the positive justice. What you have deserved trough being a good and solidary person, having good values, ideals, principles and integrity. Trough creating good results, being loyal and synergistic. Trough commitment and dedication. Trough personal improvement. The wealth, reputation and credibility you have deserved. The influence and patos. There are many words for a persons deservedness. And it´s societys job to protect a persons achievement and improvement in life. Who they have succeeded to be, been appointed, trusted and recognized to be and what they have built. Both economically, propertywise and intellectully. Trough our good living and being we build ourselves. Who we have deserved to be. Also what our partners and near ones have deserved. For example what the companies you work with have deserved trough constitutional, honest and synergistic business and trough paying taxes. Trough deserving every payment and transcaction by quality commitment and excellent policy and commercial mentality. What they have deserved to say about you and what you have built with them. I believe most people have a sense of this and that they get offended or intolerant if they are badly seen, spoken to or mistreated in a way that contradicts what´s positively fair about them.

If there´s a conflict or problem, we must fall back on democracy, ethics, law, good policy and good manners in order to be able to work things out.

I would also say, if a person is standing in a warm wind and sunshine and a raindrop falls on their arm, you don´t have to call them wet. And mosquito bites are not the plague. Proportions of things are relative to the person and life. You can usually clearly see a persons obvious direction. Some people have very good lives and qualities and can handle more and solve more than others.

I made some mistakes, for which I paid dearly, and in my opinion, the consequences were somewhat disproportionate.

But what can you do?

All I can do is say that I’m sorry for what I did wrong and for how I might have offended anyone. The situation was difficult for me. I wish it had happened differently and that everyone involved—including me—would have acted with more objectivity, constructiveness, solidarity, and good intent.

We should have communicated better, and I, for my part, should have acted with more restraint, been more precautios and listened better. Some things I did were unneccesseary and some were wrong. 

I have constructively analyzed these events and found clarity on how to prevent similar situations in the future. And I have made my statements regarding what others could have done better. 

Sometimes, it’s better to walk away or at least take substantial time to distance oneself before proceeding carefully, constructively, and with a solid and good intent—also in a democratic and honest way. It´s also wise to not attempt anything before you´re fully capable.

I will also say, if I´m forced to do something extremely demanding and difficult and I fail. The responsibility is on forcing me to do it. If I attempt it, and I´m not capable. I´m not completely to blame. And what was the first one really like? Should I be forced to handle this in the first place?

Between 2018 and 2023, my business was on hold as I had personal affairs to resolve, which I successfully did.

My approach during this time was to work hard, be honest, democratic and constructive, work on my personal leadership, life philosophy, ideals, principles, and values, and to focus on being healthy, well, and creating positive outcomes. Sometimes you can´t just say who you are, you have to prove it.

I also took the time, with care and intention, to distance myself from past mistakes, to analyze the constellation of reasons and processes, to identify anti-values and anti-principles in order to fortify myself against repeating the same or similar mistakes in the future, and to define the positive ideals, principles, and values that I should have acted by and that I truly empathize.

These are what I truly aspire to and what ultimately generate good results.

“If we know what we did wrong, there’s nothing wrong with us.”

I read something similar in a book by Stephen R. Covey once. It resonates.

I also learned an abstract thinking, to analyze what challenges I´m capable of. Sometimes it´s to demanding to succeed even if you have the right foundation, intent and methods. You need a better asset and foundation first. If it´s not going well, turn around and walk away. 

We all witnessed COVID-19 sweeping across nations and crushing business landscapes like an economic tsunami, sinking many into oblivion.

This affected me too, as most of my clientele and the industries I was involved in were severely impacted.

Many perished, but some rose from the ruins and debris, dusted themselves off, straightened their jackets, tightened their ties properly, and moved on to build for the future.

An entrepreneur must be able to withstand setbacks and failures. To constructively strengthen their proactivity and emerge stronger for the future.

Working hard

I took a regular job, working within E-commerce as a foundation, and worked hard and diligently each day, figuring out the principles and methods that lead to success in any situation for that job and create good results.

Even though I prefer to walk in a suit or relaxed masculine fashion every day and do a fine and exclusive job in a beautiful setting, I can still roll up my sleeves if I have to, get my hands dirty, and work to make my plans and ambitions succeed.

This also allowed me to reinvent my business after everything, including Corona. I have done my diligence, acquired all the assets, equipment, and software I need, and taken the time to properly lay out a business idea and philosophy that I am confident will take me to new heights.

I’ve worked hard—very hard—to get my real career going again, alongside my income job. I have put a lot of time, effort, heart, and soul into it, and it is very important to me.

The year is 2025, it’s the 22nd of February, and I am alive, well, and have many things to be grateful for.

I have dreams, aspirations, and desires that I intend to pursue—to the full ability of my person and assets.

With these two hands and my intellect, I can build anything.

Continuation

I had to sell my Konica Minolta to a bar owner in Phuket to afford a ticket home.

But now, I have two cameras, and I will probably buy a top-notch third camera soon.

I had to watch who I thought was my true love get married, have kids, study, and graduate over the internet.

But soon, I will find the one who was truly meant for me in a situation that fully enables me to commit.

For many years, I was a person with his head in the skies, up in the atmosphere of extremely successful and distinguished entrepreneurs, companies, and individuals—but with his feet partially in the mud. I also had to see a life I wanted and longed for, but could not fully participate in.

I had to fight hard to prove who I really was and what truly defined me many times. People would point at my muddied feet and say; “that´s you.” –Even though I was doing skywork.

The once muddy ground has now becomen more steady as a result of my hard work and constructivity.

I would like to sincerely thank everyone that has allowed me to participate in their business, to contribute to the best of my ability and to learn from and with you all. I would also like to say thank you to all the people I shared good times, smiles, dream-life-days, parties and adventures with, and the people who stood by me and where there for me during all of this. I also feel gratitude towards people who gave me opportunities and chances when I needed it. I will remember that. 

Living this life, with such a powerful and successful set of assets, and such a strong foundation to build upon, I have gained profound insights that I know will be incredibly valuable for the future.

I have seen life and I have lived.

I have made my observations, and I have analyzed carefully—what the sources of good are, what the sources of bad are, and what the zones around them look like. I have burned myself sometimes. And learned to keep my fingers from the fire. I know what to avoid, what risks there are and what to pursue and integrate.I have analyzed what is right and what is wrong, what is successful and what fails. 

I feel like I truly understand consequences—not just direct consequences, but also long-term effects and the results that stem from them. 

If life has taught me one primary thing, it is to be proactive, based on clarity and insight. 

I’ve made mistakes, but I’ve learned.

I’ve improved, proven my growth and integrity, and, by doing so, reclaimed my honor.

I can respect myself and stand up for myself.

And however I got soiled over the years, I have cleaned myself up and reclaimed my integrity.

I’d also like to take a moment to apologize to anyone I may have offended over the years and for what I might have done that´s been wrong.

Sometimes mistakes more happen to you also because youre young and inexperienced or because it´s simply to challenging to proactively avoid circumstances that lead to bad results.

We are all humans and persons. We can be encouraged, provoked, pained, stressed, confused or panic and make mistakes. If we have to deal with things that are to complex and that requires to much focus, use of memory and ability, we might fail. If we experience unfair hostility, we might get reactive. We are all persons. We all have things that are more important, valuable, meaningful, unfair, painful or provoking to us based on what we are like, what our life has been like, what our values, principles and ideals are like, what we have deserved etc. We must learn ourselves well and be capable of keeping our integrity.

However, for what was to difficult ur happened in an unfair way, I´m sorry that this happened and I wish it didn´t. And for what I can be accounted. I´m sincerely sorry.
I truly and genuinely respect others, and I wish that it had been more like that.

I will defend myself if I have to—if it’s truly necessary. I will defend who I am, what I’m like, what is true about me, what I deserve, my rights, properties, values and myself from violation. It usually never happens since I am proactive and avoid problems and distractions. And I dont like it.

But when I’m out there living, I act with respect.

Upwards – Phase 2

With all of this said, I continue upwards—diligently and dedicatedly, pursuing my ambitions, visions, and passions strategically and proactively until I reach my heights. I move on with life, keeping what´s best from life and distancing myself constructively from what could have been better. I have also matured and I now empathize more of a business and career lifestyle. Much of my past was over after working for some years as a consultant. We grow, we improve and we become who we are. There´s no fairness and it´s not objective about me to look at my past and trying to find me. I am here today as I became. Please don´t attempt to defame or discredit me in any way. Show some respect instead. There´s no justice or ideal in treating or describing me bad, only bad character on your own behalf.

What will the future bring? I will find out by doing my best and acting my finest.

I would also offer a recommendation to anyone out there: If you want to travel, live by carpe diem, pursue adventure, explore, and embrace a wild heart—do so, but keep a safe situation back home.

Don’t go without having something to return to, and definitely go with proper funding.

And do it in a way that builds a future.

Don’t find yourself in a one-way alley.

And if you travel and work, get your paperwork and administration in proper order.

Demand proper documentation. Always.

If they don’t offer it, don’t do it.

Unpaid work is usually allowed to gain references—such as hobby work, interest-based projects, or similar endeavors. In some places it is also allowed to work for tips or below certain amounts.

But always value honesty.

I would do things differently today. I would be more independent, grounded, safe and secure during my travels and more capable but I would probably still go. And I would prioritize foundations and assets more. 

Integrity is like a closed fist. When the world tests you and calls you to open it you hold it closed, closed around your ideals, principles, values, decisions and statements. You don´t open it. A good lifesituation is like muscles in your arm. It´s easier to keep it closed. 

He who learns from the mistakes of others, not just by his own will be successful.

Take my advices.

And if you want to start a business, you must have a solid foundation and financial backing, or secure an income job to maintain a stable situation while building it.

There are many side jobs you can do—warehouse work, sales, restaurants, hotels, bars, retail, receptions, etc.

Also, from experience: remote locations are difficult. Don’t dream away, envisioning cabs rolling up to your door, and expecting people to put effort into coming to your business. It takes tremendous marketing skills and business expertise to succeed in a bad location—everyone else is doing their best with marketing and concepts too. In bad locations, you must shine and offer differentiation at a high level.
