50 Questions that will free your mind
"The lists of questions below will help you to free your mind. These questions have no right or wrong answers. Because sometimes asking the right questions is the answer. Just answer all of these questions in your heart and see what the changes around you."
1. How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are ?
Everyone says I don't look my age, that I look younger. So I'm willing to look 5 or 6 years younger... What do you think ?
2. Which is worse, failing or never trying ?
Eleven years ago, I answered "Never trying", and I keep that answer. I failed many times, I've made many mistakes, but I've always picked myself up. Today, I am proud of the path I have taken. Of course, I would have preferred to avoid a few obstacles, but I think it was necessary to go through this!
3. If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do?
Because that's life I guess. It takes everything to make a world, including things you don't like to do.
I'm a to-do list person, and in the end, it allows me to do a lot more of the things I like because the things I don't like don't take up as much time as they used to.
4. When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
Oh yes. When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
5. What is the one thing you’d most like to change about the world?
2 years of Covid, don't you think it's enough ?
6. If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich?
Everyday I do my best to see people around me happy, so I guess any kind of work.
7. Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing?
I finally have my dream job. And since my first day, I do what I believe in !
8. If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?
Seriously ? That mean that I still have 4 years to live ? Well, I keep it that way and damn what I wouldn't have had time to do.
9. To what degree have you actually controlled the course your life has taken?
I don't know if I have really controlled my life, otherwise I would have left my previous job a long time ago and we would have left our previous apartment a long time ago.
10. Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things?
I still want to do the right things right. But unlike 11 years ago, I have more confidence in myself, I have more support and therefore it is easier.
11. You’re having lunch with three people you respect and admire. They all start criticizing a close friend of yours, not knowing she is your friend. The criticism is distasteful and unjustified. What do you do?
Why could they ? If I can be sure that this close friend would do the same for me, maybe I would defend he / she. But anyway, I listen, maybe they are right...
12. If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?
Life is a bitch. Good luck.
13. Would you break the law to save a loved one?
Honestly, it depends who this person is, and what she/he did. Remember that I still have four years to live !
14. Have you ever seen insanity where you later saw creativity?
Let me think.
15. What’s something you know you do differently than most people?
I can touch my nose with my tongue.
16. How come the things that make you happy don’t make everyone happy?
Because I like not to do like everyone else, contradiction spirit!
17. What one thing have you not done that you really want to do? What’s holding you back?
Tell them fuck off ? I think tht some people need to hear it. Why I didn't do it ? Respect I guess.
18. Are you holding onto something you need to let go of?
To be honest, my burn-out last year allowed me to stop feeling guilty about many things, to sort things out and to move forward. The past is in the past, and so much the better.
19. If you had to move to a state or country besides the one you currently live in, where would you move and why?
That would be Scotland or US.
20. Do you push the elevator button more than once? Do you really believe it makes the elevator faster?
Of course I do, don't you ?
21. Would you rather be a worried genius or a joyful simpleton?
Both at the same time.
22. Why are you, you?
Because I don't want to be like the others.
23. Have you been the kind of friend you want as a friend?
I don't know. I just hope I'm a good friend.

Nothing. But let me tell you that I recently achieved a lot of things !
34. Have you ever been with someone, said nothing, and walked away feeling like you just had the best conversation ever?
No. Or I don't remember.
35. Why do religions that support love cause so many wars?
