New Release: Gaze wide, aim far

In March I wrote that I postponed the release of my next novel (Bird Man) until a later time. Not long after, it seemed that the pandemic came in full swing and things spiraled out of control. 

All of a sudden it seemed that this work of fiction had become less relevant, until we reach that point in time where the end of the recession (resulting from the pandemic) is in sight. Until then, it seemed to me, that it's a better time to offer hands-on advise.

As it is, millions of people have lost their jobs and current projections show that about 40% of those will not be able to return to their prior job, after the recession has been overcome. The world is in a transition right now, and because of that, we ourselves will need to be in a transition. This means that for many of us, we might change at least some aspect of our professional lives, or change careers altogether. 

That's when I decided that I should do my part to try to solve that problem: to make any transition and to realize any ambition depends largely on having the right mind-set. I believe that I'm uniquely qualified to do this, because I have extensive experience as an educator. My profession all boils down to creating the right mind-set, which is a basic requirement to achieve any ambition, be it in school, or be it as a professional. 

This is exactly the stuff that my series Gaze wide, aim far is all about. This work is non-fiction, because it's about a problem that needs to be solved.

I'm working on this as I go. Currently there are three parts available: The Foundation, Bulwarks & Landmarks and Realizing Ambitions. These are available as separate e-books, and I also made a bundle available of all three, both as e-book and paperback.

Based on feedback that I receive, I might expand this series into an even more elaborate whole. 

I'm also working towards a YouTube channel: Gaze Finder TV, and a dedicated blog: The Gaze Finder. There are more ideas as well. Below is the cover of the first part of the series:
