\"Feel<\/p>\n

These days, when opening my browser I\u2019m looking at around 20 open tabs. Each one of them contains beautifully written blog posts and stunning recipes that I\u2019d like to try, tinker around with and cook as often as needed for them to be presentable right here to you, yes you. Basically, I am constantly thinking about cooking, discovering new ingredients and food in general. Then I check my weekly schedule, trying to find time slots to take plans into action and continue working on the tasks I failed to complete due to my current workload. Sigh. Right now I work every single day. By work I mean working for other people, doing jobs that lead nowhere, that don\u2019t lighten up my hard, that don\u2019t make me want to work all through the night to finish and present to the world.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Sure, I\u2019m happy to have these jobs, as they provide me with the necessary means and the ability to put food on the table and have a roof above my head. Then again I get frustrated when reading about all those success stories scattered around the web. Sure, stories on failing have equally increased over the years, but the fact is, those \u2018lesson learned\u2019 stories are mostly written by people who are already successful. I don\u2019t begrudge their success, but I envy their courage to take risks and actually get started. So far I haven\u2019t found the key of overcoming my own fear and hesitation of getting started, which was actually one of the main reasons I wanted to come to Istanbul, besides learning Turkish. Learning how to take risks and start something on my own. Turkish people are incredible when it comes to entrepreneurial spirit. The slightest sense of an opportunity is seemingly all they need to get started, to found their own company, produce what is needed and get people talking. I thought this spirit would rub off on me more easily, but I\u2019m still caught in the hamster wheel called day-to-day life also known as routine. I know everything will turn out right in the end, but I\u2019m not sure whether my patience is conducive at this point of my life or not. And reading statements like the following, “whether it’s by actually blogging on your blog, or starting your startup, value is created by doing.”\u00a0doesn\u2019t make it any better. The worst thing is, they are right. Period.<\/p>\n

And unfortunately, or luckily (I haven\u2019t decided on this one yet) the only person who can change how much value I create is myself. So here we are on my blog, the initial value I created to kick off a personal project of let\u2019s say \u2018daily value creation\u2019. My plan is to create value everyday, whatever the form. Let it be a recipe tested, a blog post written, a conversation held about my own projects. Who knows what\u2019s out there to be created once you\u2019ve got the ball rolling, right?<\/p>\n

So let\u2019s make some feel good tea and watch this video<\/a>\u00a0over and over again.
\n\"FeelFeel good Cherry Stem Tea\u00a0<\/b>
\nAfter trying this flavorful and fruity tea that to me is reminiscent of summer, you will be crying over all those cherry stems that you have thrown away in the past.\u00a0Cherry Stem Tea is known to dissolve mucus while being an equally effective treatment of\u00a0bladder infections and bloating.\u00a0<\/b>Some people swear to its\u00a0mild detoxifying and appetite regulating properties.\u00a0So save your cherry stems the next time you buy some organic cherries. Allow them to dry on a baking sheet in a dry place for a couple of days. Or, if you don\u2019t cope with cherries that well, like myself, check in with your pharmacy or well stocked herb store \/ organic goods provider.<\/i><\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/b>
\n1\/2 hand full of dried cherry stems<\/p>\n

Place cherry stems in a big teapot. Add boiling water and cover. Let steep for 15 minutes. Drink warm or cold.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Jedes Mal wenn ich meinen Browser \u00f6ffne blicke ich dabei auf ungef\u00e4hr 20 noch ge\u00f6ffnete Tabs, gef\u00fcllt mit k\u00fcnstlerisch geschriebenen Blog-Eintr\u00e4gen oder atemberaubenden Rezepten. Rezepten, die ich nicht nur selber testen m\u00f6chte, sondern mit den ich spielen, sie immer und immer wieder auf neue Art und Weise zubereiten m\u00f6chte, so lange bis sie es wert sind hier mit euch geteilt zu werden. Im Grunde denke ich an nichts anderes als Kochen, Essen und neu entdeckte Zutaten. Dann wieder werfe ich einen Blick auf meinen Wochenplan, suche nach ein paar freien Stunden um all das vorgenommene zu verwirklichen, kann blo\u00df seufzen und mach mich wieder an die Dinge, die w\u00e4hrend der Woche liegen geblieben sind. Denn, so etwas wie einen freien Tag gibt es in meiner aktuellen Zeitplanung nicht. Jeder Tag ist durch Arbeit bestimmt. Mit Arbeit meine ich, f\u00fcr andere Menschen arbeiten, Dinge tun, die f\u00fcr einen pers\u00f6nlich zu nichts f\u00fchren, an denen man nicht mit Blut und Schwei\u00df h\u00e4ngt, bei denen man nicht freiwillig die Nacht durch arbeitet um sie endlich stolz der Welt pr\u00e4sentieren zu k\u00f6nnen. Sicher, ich bin froh diese Jobs zu haben, immerhin sichern sie mir, dass ich t\u00e4glich eine warme Mahlzeit vor der Nase und ein Dach \u00fcber dem Kopf habe. Und dann wieder \u00fcberwiegt die Frustration, insbesondere wenn einem wieder einer dieser Erfolgsgeschichten zwischen die Finger kommt, die sich splitterartig durch das Netz ziehen. Zwar sind auch Geschichten \u00fcber das Scheitern zahlreicher geworden in den letzten Jahren, aber es berichten eben doch meist die Leute dar\u00fcber, die es schon l\u00e4ngst geschafft haben. Ich missg\u00f6nne niemandem seinen Erfolg, jedoch beneide ich den Mut ein Risiko einzugehen und einfach mal zu machen. Noch habe ich keine L\u00f6sung zur \u00dcberwindung meiner eigene Angst und Zur\u00fcckhaltung einfach loszulegen gefunden. Und dabei war das neben dem Ziel T\u00fcrkisch zu lernen, eine der Hauptgr\u00fcnde her zu kommen. T\u00fcrken sind beeindruckende Entrepreneurs. Oft reicht der Geruch einer aussichtsreichen Gelegenheit um das Gespr\u00e4ch, den Designprozess oder was auch immer es ben\u00f6tigt, das Projekt zu verwirklichen, in Gang zu setzen. Ich hatte gehofft, dass diese Mentalit\u00e4t leichter auf mich \u00fcbergehen w\u00fcrde, aber ich bin noch immer gefangen im Hamsterrad des Alltagslebens. Ich wei\u00df, dass alles seine Zeit braucht und bin mir sicher, dass alles irgendwie seinen richtigen Weg gehen wird. Aber ich bin mir nicht sicher ob meine Geduld momentan wirklich f\u00f6rderlich ist oder nicht. Und Kommentare wie \u201eEgal ob es der n\u00e4chste Blogeintrag auf deinem Blog ist, oder der Start eines eigenen Startups, Wert wird durch handeln generiert.\u201c machen es nicht wirklich besser. Das schlimmste daran ist, es stimmt ja auch noch. Punkt.
\nGl\u00fccklicher- oder ungl\u00fccklicherweise, diesbez\u00fcglich hab ich mich auch noch nicht entschieden, bin ich selbst die einzige Person, die entscheidet und \u00e4ndern kann wieviel Wert ich schaffe. F\u00fchrt also kein Weg darum herum, mein pers\u00f6nliches \u201eWert kreiieren\u201c-Projekt soll hiermit beginnen. Sei es ein neugetestetes Rezept, ein neuer Blogpost, oder ein spannendes Gespr\u00e4ch \u00fcber eigene Projektideen, von nun an, soll jeder Tag dadurch bestimmt sein Wert zu schaffen. Wer wei\u00df, was aus den Dingen entsteht, wenn der Ball erstmal ins Rollen ger\u00e4t, nicht wahr?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1066,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[136,3],"tags":[21,409,59,66,77],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/880"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=880"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/880\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1066"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=880"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=880"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
