Mind Dump and Fighting
Dear Valued Readers
Sorry – that I have not been posting so much lately – but off course there are various reasons.
Politics and Impact
Over the last month – I have found myself eating and winning and talking with the top advisor’s (not just consultants) to Nicolas Sarkozy, Angelina Merkel and Hillary Clinton – and even though my only goal is to sracts the surface – and find out whats behind the power structures – I have gotten a little bit struck.
Architecture and Impact
I have spend time with some very very high impact developers and architects – and same story – I got a bit overwhelmed – due to the LONG TERM impact this stuff has. Psoting from Iassons unbelievable villas in Anti Paros
Investments and Impact
I have gone into nearly 75 companies and 95% goes very well – and Im not very needed there. Some would think that I did a smart move – but basically my luck has again striked – and even double since the entrepreneurs and companies who does very well – like me pretty muc hbecause I dont interfere.
Family and Impact
I got over my trouble in december – and spring has been very very good. But now reality and normallity has kicked in again – and I find it a bit difficult. And maybe Im just pushing the speed to much ?
Water and Impact
My water project – is now has interest from the most influencial people in the world – and one of the biggest industrial players in the sector. And again – I´m really really starting to feel HUMBLE – that I cant help to get such traction – after near bankruptcy in January.
Summer
This season is NOT my favorite and I really fight with handling my own expectations to life and holidays… Darn I think I think to much – but maybe thats normal for people who promotes Act – don’t talk 
Glubble – browser for Kids
Im so proud to be part of this Glubble project . Ian is a true master. It should be under my WILD concept – since its really something GOOD for kids.
India – will start outsourching ?
I had been thingking about this before – but I must admit that I was a bit suprised when I saw that Gardner now says its for real.

I have loved Zecco since I met the guys first time (well actually we first declined – but then after some wine – Soren and I went all in). And now Jeroen and partners have really made it to BIG. And this picture show all their self confidente in one shot 
What A Day – Im hammered
Today I had a 100% fantastic expirience. I was invited to the FREEWAY BAD ASS CAMP – where this Danish online empire -> Number one in Dating, Auctions, Partyphotos (new category), Teen Flirting and much more. Henrik, Morten and UPDATE (Morten Sr. is also a very important part) started this as a garage project 9 years ago – and today they have the most sexy and profitable online/media company in the world (looking at impact pr. capita – pitty its only present in Denmark). The 15 companies they own – always with 51% minimum – are all build with fokus on social/community features and paying subscribers – even the auction site has 33%+ paying subscribers – and now they are starting to see the advertising revenue kicking – and THEY CANT STOP SMILING – they feel its FREE PROFIT – nearly too easy. Wow – I wish I had made some video – but Im having a PODCASTING MENTAL BLOCK – I simply dont feel comfortable taking out the cam – darn…
So anno 2007 – hearing these hot hot companies and the 3 majority owners and 20 minority owners (all web entrepanuers to the bone) – speak and discuss and exchange knowledge was like being in heaven for me. And when i gave my shameless selfpromoting presentation – I had to jump over all 12 slides about – >”Just do it” -> “Act” -> “Imagine how cool its would be” – because these guys where allready many times there…
And then on top of all this – we where picked up in Wagner Jr. plane – it was my first time in such a small plane – and I got totally – high.
Me No More A Virgin To Fraud
For the first time – I have tried a real conman or should I say concouple – really strange. They got German investors and me – they got a supercool partner – they seemed really ok. And now they are taking the company hostage and playing stupid trying to blackmail us. WOW – imagine that I should try this. Weird. I will let you know what the names are soon – so the internet transparency will avoid this to happen to YOU.

Read Full Post | Make a Comment ( 20 so far )Nerve & Nervous
Yesterday I was with this very very fine mann – Eran Davidson – the big kahuna at Hasso Plattner Ventures - Eran said someting that stayed in my head until now. He was probobly the first guy I have talked to this decade – who said he was sometime nervous. I realised that this is the biggest tabu in business life – since WE ALL ARE ALL THE TIME. Nervous weather we are good enough, doing the right things, nice enough, smart enough, helpfull enough, rich enough, happy enough, carefull enough… Maybe its just me – Im probably suppressing my own nervousness so much – that this little clue really moved me. But after thinking trough why Im sometimes nervous – I feel much better.
Dear valued reader – close your eyes – do some deep breaths – and think over if and why if – you are a bit nervous today … just face it – think about it – face it – and wupti – dont you feel better ?

That is called a “Top Gazalle” here in Denmark.
I’m very proud of this, so I will take the time to say thanks to all in Soft Trading and also to all our Partners.
THANKS!!
I certainly hope we can develop our relations even further!
