Like everyone else, my journey began in childhood, when I deliberately tore my jeans to make them look unique and grew my hair to look like a Beatle. As an adult, I put aside the pursuit of pleasure to enter the social hierarchy. The many trials that followed enabled me to reconnect with myself and deconstruct certain beliefs. Although I went through many difficulties, I gradually found my true north. 

Little by little, I codified what I had learned into six steps for leadership in times of crisis. This leadership applies first of all to yourself. It's about becoming the CEO of your own life.

There is no one-size-fits-all solution to happiness and serenity. By trial and error, we have to define ourselves without worrying about how others will look at us. I've discovered that my raison d'être manifests itself when the eyes of the people I meet light up. I then established a few guiding principles, and I've found that when I respect them, I feel more in tune with my true self. By striving to be as authentic and sincere as possible, I've been able to test the solidity of these principles and calmly face many uncertain and stressful situations. I have summarised them in a formula called "PODnow®". 

Although I don't claim to have rid myself of all my conditioning, this formula helps me to move in that direction. Having introduced it to thousands of people, I know that it can help many others to become happier, more effective, more abundant and more serene. My latest book is the essence of my sixty-year quest, and I'm honoured to share it with you.
