Pondering about identity, time life, the world and beyond

Spending a day

with Sanne Roemen

Chapter 1Identity

Meet Sanne ...

Stop

Would you label

a carpenter “hammer” ?

It’s just one of his tools to achieve his goals

On the internet it’s easy to become a

caricature of yourself

Let’s Rewind ….

Meet Sanne ...

Sanne’s favourite dish:Brain jam,

exploring (im)possibilities

Tools alone are not enough

What are the opportunities of available tools like social software to make your (social and

business) goals come true?

A re you “on target”?

Job titles don’t capture the essence of people

working in adigital age

Antoine de St. Exupery:“If you want to build a ship, don’t drum up the men to gather wood, divide the work and give orders.

Instead, teach them to yearn for the

vast and endless

sea”

Passion-centered people

gather around a shared purpose

To share is to gain

Is

Everything

Chapter 2Time

From the moment we are born

we enter “finite time” zone

</body>

Sanne thinks that much of the quality of

our life depends on our relationship with time

Time is paradoxal

Slow food, longer days

We can mold time,

but we cannot save it for later

We cán use it wisely

Choices

in the way we spend our time

Time is a social

construction

You can decide to make time an

appointment with yourself

Final Chapter

Life, the world and beyond

Life

can turn out in numerous ways

Are the borders we see real?

Enter parallel universe here

The end ..
