Going green has the future and this yacht proves you don’t need to give in any convenience.
This is the future, and I sign the petition to the Dutch government to get 100% clean in 2050 at .nederland2050. Wubbo Ockels, the first Dutch astronaut, has this incredible vision .

This is one of the most covered Leonard Cohen songs, next couple of days I will show some special versions of this special song.
I’m now re-listening to David Allen’s “Getting Things Done“, I got this audio book from a colleague of mine about a year ago. And i setup a website, to manage my todo list and my tickler folder. Actually when I now look at the progress I made since a year ago, it is completely different. Every day my email box is empty. And I’m processing the stuff. The only one that’s not always empty is my physical inbox. But that I try to empty once every 1 or 2 weeks.
So if you are messed up with a lot of stuff in your life, try to read or listen to David Allen’s Getting Things Done and put a system in place that works for you.
Today I just setup some auto-pilot payments towards debt payments and saving. I used to do manual payments from my Company to my private account.

I removed my credit card and any credit on my checking account.
Today I found out the bank has a nifty variable auto tranfer feature: You can transfer money to your savings account depending on your checking account balance. Every week everything above 500 Euro is transferred to my companies savings. This will protect my money from accidental withdrawels in case my bank card is stolen or skimmed. And I don need to think about paying myself anymore, and the excess money I earn will be put into my financial reserves…
