“Give me a place to stand and I will move the world” Archimedes

Plus est en vous — You, Me & 15th Century Flanders

Our story starts here and “Plus est en vous” translates into English as, “There is more in you”.

It was the moto of the influential 15th century noble family the Van Gruuthuuse, who lived in Flanders, now Belgium.

The most famous member of the family Lodewijk van Gruuthuuse ( 1422–1492), was a true Renaissance figure — Learned, erudite, cultured, well-lettered — He owned a very large library of illuminated manuscripts which was one of the largest of the time, and the so-called Gruuthuuse Manuscript which carries his name is world famous and recognised as a masterpiece of Flemish art.

Lodewijk found a place to stand, made his mark and moved the world with his lasting legacy.

And Today

This piece is about creating a new normal, with 5 things that I believe you absolutely must work on, craft and hone to dig deep and deeper still to unearth all that is in you — and it may not be so difficult, or out of reach as at first you might think!
