1. New Year Letter 2015
I met an angel at the right time
Two years ago, the dark forces of capitalism led to a „hostile“ take-over of the company I
had developed over more that 12 years. The perceived responsibility for 350 employees
and many loyal customers weighed me down when 2013 started out and closing date
was approaching. My seemingly safe and prosperous career prospect had suddenly
disappeared.
At this very time, I met an angel named Anitra Eggler (http://www.anitra-eggler.com/).
This lady makes her living off a crusade against the evils of E-mailing. I had hired her to
present the contents of her first book called “E-Mail makes you stupid, ill and poor” to all
my staff.
When she learned about my professional misfortune, she encouraged me to write a book
about management and become publicist. She advised me strongly to use the book “The
4-Hour Workweek” from Timothy Ferris as a guideline for necessary mental changes.
In 2013, I prepared the changes and implemented them in 2014 after leaving behind an
era of working as an employed manager. I started to be a self-employed entrepreneur
and no longer an entrepreneur on a payroll.
In March 2015, one year after the emotional farewell parties from from my old company
and cooperate environment, I will be able to live the lifestyle Timothy Ferriss describes.
However, I will not be happy to work only four hours a week. I would rather explore the
effect of applying Timothy Ferriss’ advices for a full 40-hour workweek. I will, in any
case, have of plenty of spare time to help and support people I like and appreciate.
In this spirit, I encourage you to get in touch with me at any time if you need help in my
area of competence.
I don’t have to trade precious human lifetime for maximum income any longer.
I hope you make 2015 another good year for you and your dear ones.
Jürgen Lauber
P.S: On special request from persons that I appreciate very much I did start my activity
as publicist on the subject of “systematic, state organised mischief in construction” . This
2. made me to a guru in Germany. www.BauUnwesen.de . The first books on
(mis)management is planned for 2016.
