Transcript:

Are you your own fan? It sounds silly, I know but do you truly love what you're doing?  Quite often we don't love what we're doing. Yes, we like it and it makes fun and it's okay and it's interesting and it pays. But do you truly love what you're doing? Are you willing to work 24/7 even without being paid for something?

That's true love.  And sometimes we don't do that. We don't go for what we love, we go for what is convenient.  Sometimes we need to push ourselves into a new dimension of ourselves, to be able to find the future.

And that requires a to love ourselves first. And I know it sounds weird, especially as a German male. It's not usual that we tell other people I love myself. And it's not to be egocentric.  Because when we love ourselves, we can love others too.
