#016 Berlin’s Circular Economy - Zu Verschenken

You can read the Substack Newsletter here - ⁠ https://patrickjhayes.substack.com/p/berlins-circular-economy-zu-verschenken?r=1j2a8q In this episode, how the circular economy here in Berlin has really helped me settle in and how it ties in nicely with the company I’m going to be working for. I build it out with some stories about my new job, former greed, other circular economies, and the joys of upcycling. Action Item: Take stock of items you could give away. Something to Think About: How could you upcycle or repurpose. Lot’s of broken things can be passed on and fixed. Lesson Learnt: good things don’t come to this who wait, they come to those who put themselves in the right positions and are open to receiving them. Gratitude: getting to spend time with my parents.

You can read the Substack Newsletter here - ⁠ https://open.substack.com/pub/patrickjhayes/p/all-or-something?r=1j2a8q&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true In this episode, I talk about why I went missing the past couple of weeks and how I’ve been trying to work on breaking free from the shackles of the all or nothing mentality. I build it out with some stories about running, meditation, writing, and how perfectionism gets in the way of forming habits. Action Item: The next time things get tough, think about how you can reframe things in your mind and get the most out of the experience… you are already doing it. Something to Think About: Don’t throw something away once you’ve started. Think about how you can hold on and salvage the project you are working on. Lesson Learnt: It only takes one yes. Gratitude: the support and guidance of those closest to me.
