My path crossed with Bettina’s over three years ago. At that time, she just decided to quit her office job to pursue her real passion: Psychology. I remember well how excited she was to begin a new chapter in her life – and how miserable I was as I just realised I became kind of trapped careerwise. But this is another story…
Now, three years later, Bettina holds a bachelor degree in Psychology and has just started her Masters at the University. I seldom meet people who REALLY love what they do. But Bettina does. It fits perfectly to her persona. When she talks about it, the positive vibes really come over. I am very happy for her that she can live it to the fullest. I know it sound too plain, but it actually IS true: Life is too short and you really should not waste your time. You can get stuck from time to time – of course – maybe you need that in order to recharge your batteries, in order to rethink your plans, but then get back on track and just do it. Do what you love.
Hats off to you, Bettinko. And thanks for being such a good friend.
