Niet happy na je emigratie. Wat moet je doen?

Niet happy na je emigratie. Wat moet je doen?

Image

Laat ik maar meteen met de deur is huis vallen: het leven is niet altijd geweldig als je geëmigreerd bent. Je bent niet altijd happy. Het lijkt misschien allemaal fantastisch: je bent je droom achterna gegaan, je zit op een fantastisch nieuwe plek, je bent de liefde achterna gegaan. Wat de reden ook was: je hebt een mooie en bijzondere stap gezet, met de nodige positieve verwachtingen.

Maar helaas is het niet allemaal rozengeur en maneschijn. Na je emigratie kom je er pas achter wat verhuizen naar het buitenland écht betekent. Na verloop van tijd weet je dat je sommige dingen niet gegaan zoals je gehoopt had. Enkele voorbeelden:
• Vrienden maken is moeilijker dan je denkt
• Je voelt je (financieel) afhankelijk van je partner
• Je huis voelt niet als een thuis
• Het contact met de achterblijvers verloopt niet zoals je wilt
• Je hebt last van heimwee

9 aandachtsgebieden na emigratie

Je goed voelen in het buitenland is niet een kwestie dat 1 ding op orde moet zijn en dan is alles goed. ‘Happy’ zijn na een emigratie vraagt op meerdere gebieden in je leven aanpassing en flexibiliteit. Om je plek helemaal te vinden in het buitenland en je ‘gelukkig’ te voelen is het nodig om de volgende gebieden optimaal tot uiting te laten komen.

1. Sociaal leven
2. Familie en gezinssituatie
3. Werksituatie
4. Rol in de maatschappij
5. Contact met ‘achterblijvers’
6. Heimwee
7. Taal
8. Je huis als thuis
9. Ontspanning, hobby en vrije tijd

Happy Stones maken, vinden en volgen

Echt leuk, vorige week vond ik op straat een hele mooie steen. De steen was van Happy Stones Den Haag. En de steen kan je opzoeken op Facebook. Ik heb een foto gemaakt en laten weten waar de steen is op de Facebook groep aan de maker. En ik heb de steen buiten laten liggen, om te zien hoe lang het zou duren voordat de steen weer ging reizen.

Je kan dus een Happy Stone maken

  • Neem een kiezelsteen
  • Versier of beschilder de steen, gebruik geen lijm of glitter
  • Tag de steen, mijn steen had Happy Stone Den Haag erop staan, met het logo van Facebook

Verstop de steen in jouw buurt en wacht tot iemand de steen vindt, dat kan gewoon thuis, af en toe Facebook checken.

Voor de vinder

  • Vind de steen
  • Maak een foto
  • Zoek de goede Facebook groep
  • Hou de steen, of beter nog, laat de steen weer verder reizen

Doel

  • Iemand een beetje blij maken met een klein cadeautje
  • En de steen kan reizen, wat wij in de lockdown niet echt kunnen

Echt leuk, gister was de steen voor de deur weg. Ik heb zelf een slachtoffersteen gevonden, dus ga misschien als ik het durf de steen beschilderen. En ik heb een van mijn Filippijnse artiesten vriendinnen heel enthousiast gemaakt, en Happy Stones kennen ze nog niet op de Filippijnen! Dus... ze gaan ze ook op de Filippijnen maken. Pay it Forward toch? Ieders dagje een beetje blijer maken, grenzeloos.

 

 

 

 

In my life I've learned that true happiness comes from giving. Helping others along the way makes you evaluate who you are. I think that love is what we're all searching for. I haven't come across anyone who didn't become a better person through love.

Who are the happiest people in the world?

When I was living in the Philippines, to me the filipinos were the happiest. And I have traveled a lot. The filipinos themselves, also said to me, multiple times, different people, they were the happiest. Time for me to dive more into the topic Happiness. 

My good friend Rebie Ramoso, who to me is an example who always thinks about others and helps others, using her own skills (design and creativity, she is an artist). She advised me to read this book, instead I watched the TED-talk by Shawn Achor. 

The Happiness Advantage by Shawn Achor

Very inspiring short and fast talk about Happiness by Shawn Achor. A topic to study more. 

Scan the positive not the negative, exercise and train your brain. Happiness and Succes, and creating a revolution. Let's start now.

Quotes & statements from Holland by contention (the twelve elements of contentment) - The Netherlands


Self-awareness & Self-insight

  • what you say, is what you are.

Independency & Steadfastness

  • Sometimes I'm so independent I forget to listen to myself.
  • By 'Loesje' (a Dutch Quote community)

Limitlessness & Freedom

  • “Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.”
  • “I can shake off everything as I write; my sorrows disappear, my courage is reborn.”
  • “I've found that there is always some beauty left -- in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself; these can all help you.”
  • By 'Anne Frank' written during wartime while hiding.

Usefulness & Meaning

  • “No one has ever become poor by giving.”
  • By 'Anne Frank'

Experience & Feeling alive

  • Did you find a coin? It will bring you luck - The Netherlands.

Helpfulness & Attentiveness

  • Vragen staat vrij. It means it is your freedom to ask, you can always ask. The other person can always say no. When you want to help people, it is also best to ask, do they want help? What kind of help? Everything starts with a question. So many things can be done with a good heart, but the effect is gone, when your help doesnt fit.

Engagement & Sense of surroundings

  • Blow away the seeds of a dandelion in one breath. You may make a wish

Goal Orientation & Sense of perspective

  • Did you hit the goalpost at football? You will win the next match

Balance & Stability

  • Doe maar normaal, dan doe je al gek genoeg: Act normal, that is already crazy enough.

Result awareness & Positivity

  • Are we going Dutch? Everyone pays for themselves. It might not seem positive, but it connects with the Dutch believe in equality. In a way it is straightforward and clear, you pay what you order, so no need to be worried about your expenses. PS only when you divide the bill and the other person has ordered more expensive drinks or food. Just remember what you ordered and give it to the person who will pay. We have a thing called Tikkie or a possibility on any bank app to send a whatsapp message with a link so people can pay back easily. To me as a dutch person, it is positive and it is going towards your own results: saving money, if that is what you are after. 

Connectivity & Contacts

  • Wat gij niet wilt dat u geschiedt, doe dat ook een ander niet. ' Het rijmpje' komt uit de Lutherbijbel van 1545. It means don't do to others what you don't want to be done towards yourself. The rhyme (in dutch) is from the Lutherbible of 1545.

Attention & Focus

  • Did you step in dog poo? It will bring you luck.

Independency & Steadfastness

Limitlessness & Freedom

  • Dance even if the hump on your back does not allow you.

Usefulness & Meaning

  • Ubuntu: I am a person through other people. (Zulu)
    • Desmond Tutu said: “One of the sayings in our country is Ubuntu, the essence of being human. Ubuntu speaks particularly about the fact that you can’t exist as a human being in isolation. We believe that a person is a person through other persons.. It is a form of humanism which can be expressed
    • "I am, like because of who we all are." Ubuntu signifies emphatically that: “The life of another person is at least as valuable as one’s own,” and that “Respect for the dignity of every person is integral to this concept.”
    • Source

Experience & Feeling alive

  • Those who are absent are always wrong: Congo.

Helpfulness & Attentiveness

  • Happiness is not perfected until it is shared.

Engagement & Sense of surroundings

  • Happiness is like a perfume, you cannot pour it all on others without allowing a few drops to fall on yourself.
  • The chameleon changes color to match the earth; the earth doesn’t change colors to match the chameleon: Senegal.

Goal Orientation & Sense of perspective

  • The big game often appears when the hunter has given up the hunt for the day.
  • The chameleon looks in all directions before moving: Uganda.
  • Anxious about the shoe, but careless about the foot.

Balance & Stability

  • If you are building a house and a nail breaks, do you stop building, or do you change the nail?
  • Who swims never sinks.

Result awareness & Positivity
