\n\nTry to be surprised by something every day. It could be something you see, hear, or read about. Stop to look at the unusual car parked at the curb, taste the new item on the cafeteria menu, actually listen to your colleague at the office.

Don’t assume that you already know what these things are all about, or that even if you knew them, they wouldn’t matter anyway. Experience this one thing for what it is, not what you think it is. Be open to what the world is telling you. Life is nothing more than a stream of experiences — the more widely and deeply you swim in it, the richer your life will be.\n\n\n", "date_published": "2023-12-01T08:07:38+01:00", "url": "https://jeroensangers.com/2023/12/01/what-a-great.html", "tags": ["Quotes"] }, { "id": "http://jeroensangers.micro.blog/2023/11/27/time-buckets.html", "title": "Time buckets", "content_html": "
