Knowmads Tribe I, 2010
About Knowmads
Being responsible for your own learning, not only what you want to know, but also how far you’re willing to take it. That is Knowmads for me. The past months I’ve crossed boundaries I didn’t know I had and I’ve challenged myself into experiencing things I never considered before. I’ve learned about myself and teamwork and in the mean time we managed to become a strong Tribe by open communication, trusting each other and using the knowledge that is present. This whole education is as much a school to become entrepreneurs as it is a journey for personal development, I’m loving every second of it!
Quotes
My favorite thing is to go where I’ve never been Diane Arbus
Freethinkers are those who are willing to use their minds without prejudice and without fearing to understand things that clash with their own customs, privileges, or beliefs. This state of mind is not common, but it is essential for right thinking Tolstoy
And now for something completely random
Will you close your eyes and jump in? –Why?
Most definitely! The quote by Benjamin Franklin “When in doubt, don’t.” most of the time doesn’t apply to me. When I’m in doubt I usually think ‘why not?’ and if there isn’t a good enough reason, it’s enough reason to try whatever it is.
What does success taste like to you? –Literally!
Dark chocolate! It’s sweet, rich and good and only when it’s quality chocolate it doesn’t taste bitter.
What can you be woken up for, in the middle of the night?
Good music. A song can make me very enthusiastic and passionate, I love to discover music or styles I didn’t know about before. So when you hear something that makes your blood flow faster, let me know!
