Process my stress and i manage my time and i really have to do something about my wrinkles and i could be much more effective in my job and i also dont spend my leisure time in an optimal way and if i could get myself to drink more green tea i would be in better shape and more efficient and what about you are you working on yourself optimisations like me so whats a point can we be perfectly happy and can we be happily perfect. Im eating paper feet she says signs journalist and shes written a book with a great title how good should i end up being and this is my 1st question how good should i end up being should end up being as good as you want to be and that i think. Ok but right now were living in the age of self optimisation were counting on the calories were trying to go out for a run and so on so why do you think this is the age of soap opera music because people comparing themselves with as a all the time and if you come up with those of people and youre only one then you have to live. Do you have a pet that you happened to see a dog sitting in front of the mirror for hours grumpy because hes unhappy about his appearance also cat ever worried about how you might feel about her we humans are different we always want to be better than we are with this human nature its always been like that but today it has become something more an obsession self. We went to sleep better work better better and live better. You get everything for this is never enough can you. Cant theres always something i can get down more and more capital youve got this in the system demands says total success flakes have reached it. They. Have self optimisation oh man. When you. Get up well talk she talks forehead i had my cheeks done once to. Chin. Lips a brow lift and my jaw here they firmed up my jaw and. I think thats all. Ready to go. Yes now youre in there with the kid i got my toes all. Over get out of this but if this is what youre seeing here dont try this at home. This is basically a commercial freezer. If you could get it from what we got there for degrees like it was just it should be around 0 to 2 degrees oh my. Goodness if youve been in for a minute now. Thats. What a funny idea so what do you seem right why is somebody using a freezer full of to musician oh maybe youre thinking off ice cream that has always been comfort when you feel travelled the trials are resumes you think ice cream is more like seeking comfort and to get some reward for the optimisation yeah stuff optimization is a revolt and its also like a security line in the way that feels so much in a world that feels like i am not enough so im trying to improve. So im safe in this but i would put myself into a freezer i mean this hurts this is painful why do i have to optimize myself over the trash old physical pain. So maybe whats missing is somebody that says stop somebody thats caring for you and thats who says no dont do that youre good enough you already have done so much and you are good in this world and thats. Somebody that is against your own thinking you have a kid you might say this but when i think of myself im very hard on myself but im not as hard on you so why am i so hard on myself and i can other people be a better friends for yourself that this time and thats part of the solution be a better friend for yourself and ask yourself ok if a friend was here now and i was saying this i was thinking this what would he or she say and then you can give yourself the answer because you already have it in you. But if i really want to give it a go and so myself i really need some professional to help me like a personal trainer. Really. Im 36 years young i studied Sports Science in both woman cologne ive lived and worked as a personal trainer in berlin for the past 12 years and as a personal trainer i aim to help my clients attain the best possible level of physical mobility and. I 1st try to define what my clients want to achieve they each have their own specific goals which can vary wildly for some clients its about losing weight off others want to build strength and grow muscles are good. Everyone wants to be able to look in the mirror and feel good about themselves so i set up a Training Plan and then we get to work on. The. Bottom 5th exercise and fitness are not always the primary goals of training and optimization. I often work with my clients on stress management or nutrition those can be issues that need a lot of attention and all work and. Its not just about doing an exercise once twice or 3 times a week and feeling that you can take the self optimization box for many of my clients there are all kinds of other issues sleeping well that well id organizing it optimizing their work life or their family life i try to help with that ill bounce ideas off them and offer support is best i can. Best. Begins autumn on you should always start by defining your goals what would make you happy and you shouldnt let social media and other peoples opinions influence you too much think about what you would like to look like and how you might get there a personal trainer can be of assistance but you can also read up on the matter yourself look at advice and support from your family or perhaps your colleagues and then chart your own course. In our High Pressure society self optimization can be a never ending quest once you attain your i got weight you then want bigger muscles or lose even more weight i might even have a dream job but creative promotion i think you should always take things one step at a time and reflect on what your next goal my. Work towards that without piling up a whole bunch of goals and ambitions stay focused on tried just sometimes just feel content and without it goodbye just. When you watch t. V. Commercials all take a look at the ads the industry wants to tell us youre not good you have to buy the better so do you think this Health Optimisation is not from me but its brought to me from the outside from rather companies exactly this is how making money works in the well right now so. Companies the most money if we feel bad were willing to spend more and were willing to spend more on things that we probably dont need to advertise in that manner that makes us feel bad thats the best way to make money right now ok but if i get better if i get smarter more handsome and so yeah it makes me feel good so whats so bad about it no its great do it yeah think about that you say that the musician makes me happy yeah it will make you happy if you do too much so you get used to being a person that constantly works on himself so you do this you do that and you try to be strong in the squad and try to be prepared for everything. But it wont work because theres always something new that comes out so you get on the pressure to do more and more and more and thats a lot of stress. If you want to be perfect all around tried by a. Well you dont know what. To follow you think if you want to be flawless you have to be honest with yourself.
