Bonn Off The Grid

Where do I begin? Hi! I’m still alive.

March became a significant month for me. Whenever asked how long have I been doing what I’m doing now, I say “ a year.” March last year, 2020, when I felt lowest I’ve been. I was broke af, victim of the pandemic and bad governance. It was in March when things changed. Despite the lockdowns, I had to be brave and take the risk of accepting massage clients as safe as I could. The discreet gay community became my support and business market. Looking back, the community kept me alive. My brand, service, massage has changed. I realize the twitter gay community became my focus and with the lessons of Rest Haus, Sensorial Massage was born.

This is the reason why I haven’t update this account and I apologize if I couldn’t respond to inquiries. I don’t know who (in me) and how anymore. On Twitter, I can be who I am and post whatever, experiment and it’s ok. While here, it’s a brand I was trying to build while collaborating with yoga studios (I’m sad for the studios that didn’t survive). Two different worlds. I’m enjoying myself unfiltered but RestHaus forces me to be creative. I’d like to have a balance of both worlds. I don’t know how but for now, I’m just grateful to be alive and surviving the pandemic.✨💗

"According to Psychologists, there are four types of Intelligence:

1) Intelligence Quotient (IQ)
2) Emotional Quotient (EQ)
3) Social Quotient (SQ)
4) Adversity Quotient (AQ)

1. Intelligence Quotient (IQ): this is the measure of your level of comprehension. You need IQ to solve maths, memorize things, and recall lessons.

2. Emotional Quotient (EQ): this is the measure of your ability to maintain peace with others, keep to time, be responsible, be honest, respect boundaries, be humble, genuine and considerate.

3. Social Quotient (SQ): this is the measure of your ability to build a network of friends and maintain it over a long period of time.

People that have higher EQ and SQ tend to go further in life than those with a high IQ but low EQ and SQ. Most schools capitalize on improving IQ levels while EQ and SQ are played down.

A man of high IQ can end up being employed by a man of high EQ and SQ even though he has an average IQ.

Your EQ represents your Character, while your SQ represents your Charisma. Give in to habits that will improve these three Qs, especially your EQ and SQ.

Now there is a 4th one, a new paradigm:

4. The Adversity Quotient (AQ): The measure of your ability to go through a rough patch in life, and come out of it without losing your mind.

When faced with troubles, AQ determines who will give up, who will abandon their family, and who will consider su***de.

Parents please expose your children to other areas of life than just Academics. They should adore manual labour (never use work as a form of punishment), Sports and Arts.

Develop their IQ, as well as their EQ, SQ and AQ. They should become multifaceted human beings able to do things independently of their parents.

Finally, do not prepare the road for your children. Prepare your children for the road."

(Copied status) but one that resonates with me.
