I know something about you without knowing you. I bet you spend A LOT of time in your head. You know, thinking, worrying, stressing, freaking out -- call it whatever you want. I call it a preoccupied mind. And with what?

99% of your thoughts are useless. William James, once the leading psychologist in America, and one of the founders of the philosophical school of pragmatism, put it best:

"A great many people think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices."

Pragmatism believes that the mind is a tool. Your mind should work for you, not against you. People who don't master their mind, don't believe it's possible.

They say: "I can't help but thinking these things."

Well, you can TAKE CONTROL of your mind with enough practice. I've done it. And in THINK STRAIGHT, I share exactly how. It's a quick read and you can use it to immediately to improve your thinking.

You have the ability to decide what you think. Or, you can choose NOT to think.

And that is one of the most important and most practical things you can learn in life. Before I learned that skill, I would spend hours and hours inside my head. Just think about how much you think.

• "I wonder what my boss thinks?"
• "What happens if I screw up and lose my job?"
• "What if my business never takes off?"
• "Does she love me?"
• "Why does my life suck?"
• "What if I get cancer?"
• "I can't finish anything. What's wrong with me?
  

And the list goes on.

THINK STRAIGHT reveals the recipe for taking control of your mind so you can improve your life, career, relationships, business.

I wrote this little book in a way that you can read it more than once. And I hope that this book serves as an anchor to you--especially during trying times.

The mind is the most powerful tool on earth. Change the way you think. And you'll change your life.

Do you want to change your career? Start a business? Stop losing sleep over a deadline? End your relationship? Or maybe, just live a fulfilling life? Everyone has goals and ambitions in life. But we often don't pursue our inner desires because of one thing: Fear and a lack of self-confidence.

In Win Your Inner Battles, I will show you how to destroy fear and live your life with a sense of purpose.

You’ll learn how to:

• Conquer fear
• Improve self-confidence
• Stop worrying
• And live life on YOUR terms

I wrote this book based on my own experiences. No matter how bad your situation is, there is always a way out. 

• Pick your ideal habits
• Deal with distractions
• Quit all your bad habits
• Form LASTING habits that change your life

Do you feel captive in your daily life? Like you can't use the freedom you have?

If so, you're not alone. I've felt like that for most of my life. And I want to show you that you can have REAL personal freedom.

You can do any (legal) thing you want, spend time with people you like, and do work you LOVE—not something your parents told you to do or just because you need money.

Think about it. How do you want to live your life? Picture it in your mind... You can make that a REALITY.

And in What It Takes To Be Free, I will show you how to become so free that you can become the author of your own life. Learn how to:

• Develop the self-esteem you need to be free
• Design a life that gives you inner satisfaction
• Uncover your values so you can finally figure out what you want out of life
• Gain control over your finances, so you don't have to worry about money

I wrote this book because I know what it feels like to live without personal freedom. But now that I've found freedom, I want the same for you.

If you've felt captive, it's not because of your own doing. It's because you simply lacked the proper framework to achieve freedom.

What It Takes To Be Free is a highly practical guide that gives you the EXACT road map you need to gain personal freedom and inner satisfaction.

Welcome to the age of remote work. Technology gave you and me the opportunity of a lifetime. No more commuting. No more time-wasting. No more annoying meetings.

This collection of articles shows you how to be highly productive no matter where you work. You can work from home, your bedroom, hotel room, bedroom, guest room, or any other private space into your primary workspace. Remote work leads to better output, higher work satisfaction, and more free time. 

But remote work is not easy. It requires a system. When you work at home, you’re your own boss. That means you must adopt a “work first” mindset.

In this “best of” collection, I’ve handpicked my best articles that show you how to:

1. Form the mindset you need to get things done from home
2. Improve your productivity with proven techniques
3. Manage and improve yourself

When you adopt the ideas, strategies, and habits that I share in this collection, you can take on any work-related challenge that life throws at you. You no longer wish that you had a perfect office or the best resources in the world, you will be highly productive with what you have. Wherever you are.

Why is it so hard to live well amidst the chaos and noise? While you might think this is a problem of the modern world, it's a timeless issue.

2000 years ago, the ancient Stoics talked about the exact same challenges we're facing today, like:

• How can we find inner peace?
• What does it take to be happy?
• Can we become more resilient?

The answers can be found in the philosophy of Stoicism. I've used the philosophy since 2014 to change my life and career.

Focus on What Matters is a collection of 70 letters/essays I wrote about different aspects of life, from happiness, wealth, health to relationships and much more.

These letters, inspired by the original works of the Stoic philosopher Seneca, serve as reminders to focus on the right things in our chaotic lives.

The goal of the original "Letters From A Stoic" by Seneca was to share Stoic ideas with his friend, Lucilius, who had hedonistic tendencies and lived a busy life. 

Focus on What Matters is inspired by those letters. It will show you..

• Simple thought exercises to become resilient and focused
• How to live in the present moment every day
• Authentic Stoic values for a life of happiness 
• A way to build more discipline 

In short, this book helps you to live well despite the challenges of daily life.

Ik mag je weliswaar niet kennen, maar toch weet ik iets over jou. Ik durf te wedden dat je CONSTANT vast zit in je eigen hoofd. Je kent het wel; denken, stressen, flippen etc. Je mag dit noemen wat je maar wilt – ik noem het “verloren in je eigen gedachten.” En waarom?

99% van onze gedachten zijn namelijk nutteloos. William James, eens prominent psycholoog in Amerika, en een van grondleggers van de filosofische stroming Pragmatisme, zei het al:

"A great many people think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices."

Het Pragmatisme ziet het brein als gereedschap dat in je voordeel werkt; je hoort niet belemmert te worden door je brein.

In tegenstelling tot wat velen geloven kan je CONTROLE over je geest krijgen met genoeg oefening. Ik heb het zelf gedaan. En in Denk Praktisch! deel ik exact hoe ik dit heb bereikt. Het is geschreven op een vlotte manier en je kunt het meteen gebruiken om je denkwijze te verbeteren.

Bovendien schreef ik dit compacte boek op een manier zodat je het meer dan één keer kan lezen. En ik hoop dat dit boek als een anker voor je kan zijn, waarnaar je in de moeilijkere periodes grijpt.

Verander je gedachten, verander je leven.
