4,000 drones lit up the sky of my home city Shenzhen. Drawing a horse running across the night to welcome the New Year, year of the Fire Horse 马年.

Precision turned into poetry. Technology can be so romantic! Who would have imagined drones could feel this emotional?

Wishing you a bright New Year! 马到成功 (success at full speed)!

#WeekendPost  "The weather is terrible. I am not motivated." If you live in Switzerland, you hear this all winter. Easy to blame the weather.

But I believe: there is no bad weather, only bad excuses.

For 18 years, I’ve done morning exercise every single day. Non-negotiable.
And it changes everything. I feel stronger, clearer, happier, more positive and motivated...

Naval Ravikant was asked: “What habit would you say most positively impacts your life?" 
His answer: "The daily morning workout. That has been a complete game-changer."

He put morning exercise above everything. 
Because when you move, you sleep better, you think clearer, you respect yourself more.

It’s not about fitness. It’s about identity. 
Every cold morning is a vote: Comfort? or Character?

What’s your one non-negotiable habit?

Start this morning.
Even if it’s dark. Especially if it’s dark.

When an interviewer says, “tell me about yourself.” In 19 years of executive search, I’ve seen very few answer it well. 

An interview is often decided in the first 15 minutes, and most people waste it.

In those first few minutes, you are assessed: 
- Can you think clearly under pressure?
- Can you structure your thoughts?
- Do you understand your own value?
- Do you know why you’re here?

Strong candidates don’t recite their CV. 
They position themselves, and answer 3 things. Concise. Structured. Confident.

1) Who I am professionally (my core strength).
2) What I’ve done that matters for this role.
3) Why this opportunity makes sense, for both of us.

The first 15 minutes set the frame.
After that,  I’m either confirming you’re strong… or looking for gaps.

Before your experience speaks, your clarity speaks.
