50 questions that will free your mind
1. How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?
As old as you feel.
2. Which is worse, failing or never trying?
Never trying. However I act like never trying, because I am afraid to fail. But with the dayzeroproject I try to open my mind more for different things.
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?
We are afraid of the reaction of others mostly and also afraid of ourselves when doing something. We are afraid we do something we do not dare.
4. When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?
Yes, because people like to blow things up.
5. What is the one thing you’d most like to change about the world?
The cool attitude of people toward each other.
6. If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich?
For myself the work I always wanted to do. But to make other people happy I would have to be something like a person who gives stuff for free or money to people who needs it.
7. Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing?
Settling for what I am doing.
8. If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?
I would go and do what ever I want. Not going to college or even thinking about a way of making money, because before the moment you have collected enough you will faint.
9. To what degree have you actually controlled the course your life has taken?
Untill now I actually live my life as everybody expects it too. Next year when I go to college I can finally do things I want to do. But also this year I tried it, but it did not work out that well.
10. Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things?
Doing things right, because I am afraid of failing. And I would cross the light when it is red, when I have to reach a point in a certain time to do that right.
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?
I would try to suggest that there might be another perspective to look at that person, because nobody can do everything wrong and I would say that I have information about her heard of someone that she is actually quite nice.
12. If you could offer a newborn child only one piece of advice, what would it be?
Do ignore what everybody is saying about you.
13. Would you break the law to save a loved one?
At this moment I would say yes, but at the moment of happening I would probably think to long to save the one.
14. Have you ever seen insanity where you later saw creativity?
Yes, by the paintings of someone crazy.
15. What’s something you know you do differently than most people?
Behaving against my family and friends.
16. How come the things that make you happy don’t make everyone happy?
We all love different things and different values make different kind of happiness.
17. What one thing have you not done that you really want to do? What’s holding you back?
Releasing the fear for spiders. But it is a fear and a fear is something you have to overcome but that is something scary.
18. Are you holding onto something you need to let go of?
The fact that I cannot do a couple of things because I am not good enough for it.
19. If you had to move to a state or country besides the one you currently live in, where would you move and why?
Gelderland, because there is a lack of people and it is quiet and nice.
20. Do you push the elevator button more than once? Do you really believe it makes the elevator faster?
Yes and no I do not believe that, but maybe it does work. You can better do something than nothing.
21. Would you rather be a worried genius or a joyful simpleton?
Joyful simpleton
