A Stoic View on Pendulums
Pendulums, as I see them, are collective emotional patterns that survive by pulling attention and reaction from people. This aligns closely with Stoic thought, especially Epictetus’ teaching that “men are disturbed not by things, but by the views which they take of them.” A pendulum itself is neutral; it only gains force when people interpret it emotionally and feed it energy. Fear, anger, and outrage are its fuel, just as the Stoics warned against allowing externals to dictate our inner state. Marcus Aurelius wrote, “You have power over your mind, not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.” Detachment, in this sense, is not apathy but discipline of perception. By observing pendulums without identifying with them, I stay within what is in my control and release what is not. This mirrors the Stoic dichotomy of control, where peace comes from focusing only on one’s own thoughts, judgments, and actions. What stands out to me is that freedom is not found in fighting pendulums, but in refusing to react to them. Seneca warned that “we suffer more often in imagination than in reality,” and pendulums thrive precisely in that imagined suffering. When I respond with awareness instead of emotion, the pendulum loses its grip. In that moment, attention returns to where it belongs: my own direction, values, and chosen path.

Key takeaways from coaching call
- Rebien helped me realize that I don’t need new systems, I need to apply systems I already know. The structure, discipline, and repetition I’ve built through years of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu are directly transferable to my course and business work. - Stefan’s coaching call yesterday was a wake-up call: I need to fully take advantage of the value that’s being handed to me through this 21-day challenge. The knowledge, structure, and guidance are already there. The only missing piece is my execution. - Discipline and consistency are not my problem. I’ve proven this through training. The gap is in scheduling the work and showing up daily without overthinking. - Progress works the same way as in jiu-jitsu: show up, do the reps, reflect, adjust, repeat. No shortcuts, no waiting for motivation. - My focus needs to shift from “how do I feel today?” to “what does the process require from me today?” - This challenge isn’t something to think about or prepare for, it’s something to commit to and execute fully. Core insight I’m not lacking ability, information, or support. I’m being given a high-value environment with clear structure. My responsibility is to respect that by showing up daily, executing the work, and treating this challenge like training.

@Jaguar Ino So true!
Entrepreneurs Mindset!
Vandaag heb ik mijn eerste coaching call bijgewoond en het onderwerp was Entrepreneurs Mindset.We hadden het over dat je ondernemerschap niet alleen doet, maar dat je het bent het begint bij je mindset.Dat raakte me. Ik ben al jaren ondernemer.Ik heb mijn bedrijf opgebouwd in de fysieke wereld mijn wasserij/wasserette. Lange dagen, vroege ochtenden, hands-on werken en elke dag fysiek aanwezig zijn. In die wereld wist ik precies wat ik moest doen: op komen dagen, hard werken, problemen oplossen en doorgaan. Maar online ondernemerschap?Dat is een totaal ander spel. Ondanks dat ondernemerschap een mindset is, merk ik dat online ondernemen voor mij veel uitdagender voelt. En vandaag werd me duidelijk waarom.Een echte ondernemersmindset betekent: geen kansen laten liggen, maar ze zelf creëren. Snel beslissingen nemen, actie durven nemen voordat alles perfect voelt, en volledige verantwoordelijkheid nemen voor je keuzes. In de fysieke wereld zie je direct resultaat: deuren gaan open, klanten lopen binnen, het werk ligt voor je.Online vraagt het iets anders. Het vraagt vertrouwen vóór bewijs, consistent zijn zonder directe feedback en geloven in acties waarvan je de uitkomst nog niet meteen ziet. Geen fysieke deuren die open gaan alleen jij, je visie en je acties achter een scherm. En juist daar zit de groei. Ik leer om sneller te schakelen, groter te denken en niet te wachten op het juiste moment. Want echte ondernemers wachten niet op kansen ze creëren momentum.
