Nice! You are looking for real long time friendship! You might have already lived in Berlin or other big cities and experienced the "Anonymous" culture for a while. Meeting random people over and over and never see the same person again! In order to find "Real Long Term Friendship" in Berlin, do as follows: * You should not care how many people are joining this meetup. You RVSP. Even if only one person is joining. Because if everyone are waiting for everyone else to RVSP, nobody joins and nobody finds a new friend. * You do not care how many people of the opposite sex are joining. You are looking for friends. Finding the best romantic partner in the world, while avoiding not very attractive others, can be your other goal, for another time. Here we are looking for Friends. Real ones. * You are going to risk a very precious property of yours: Your time! Yes, there are thousands of opportunities in Berlin, there might be a rock concert for free, a birthday party you might miss, an important person might call you and invite you spontaneously, but you never find new friends until you decide to risk your time and meet people anyway. "I will check my calendar and get back to you" also does not work. Commit your time and spend it. Trust me, you won't go bankrupt ;-) * You are ready to use your phone as a real phone! You might have been using your phone as a tablet to visit Instagram and Facebook and watch movies. But if you want to find friends, you must know that people might take your phone number and give you theirs. That means they will Call you! And you have to pick up the phone and answer it. If you want to find new friends, you must be ready to do something really hard for the first time after years: Call people first, and if they called you: Answer your phone! * You are going to meet some people twice! That's the point of friendship. We already can experience random encounters with random people in random places one at a time. But that is not called friendship. If you want friends, you must be ready to meet the same person more than once. If you agree with above, RVSP and COME! You will meet other people who think the same way. P.S: Now that you've read all the way down to here, I suggest you [watch this animation](https://player.vimeo.com/video/547249272?h=22f3dd0f6f).

**Join us for a swim at Stadtbad Mitte ("James Simon") Pool!** Hey everyone, We are doing another relaxed non-professional swim at Stadtbad Mitte. It's an indoor heated (+25°C) pool, and I'd love for you to join us! We'll be gathering for a casual chill 30-minute swim. No need to race or compete, just enjoy the water and calm after completing the swim. Afterwards we go to a nearby café for coffees and chat, but no pressure to stick around—totally optional! **Bring** * swimsuit * towel * 1 Euro coin (for a locker) * ticket (buy online or on site) **Where** Go inside, walk upstairs and sit in a hall between changing rooms, do NOT go past the turnstiles until we are all there. We'll wait for 10 minutes for people to gather. Please try to be on time because it's a bit challenging to find each other after we are already in the pool.

Meet up and join us this Saturday! Whether you're a long-time resident or just travelling through, come and meet new people to have fun, make new friends and enjoy your Saturday evening in a safe and welcoming environment at one of Berlins fantastic bars (and then there's always people who want to go to a club afterwards).

**👋🏽 Tschüss Tretmühle & einsame Vorsätze. Hallo Klarheit & echte Verbindung.** **🎯 In diesem Workshop setzt Du Dir Ziele für 2026 - gemeinsam mit Menschen, die sich ähnliche Fragen stellen.** **🌞 Ein Tag für Träume, klare Richtung & gute Verbindungen.** \-\-\-\-\-\-\- **💶 Teilnahmegebühr: 50 EUR vor Ort in bar oder PayPal.** Du kannst Dir auch ein [Ticket auf Evenbrite sichern](https://www.eventbrite.de/e/deine-ziele-dein-leben-deine-ziele-fur-2026-tickets-1977605942610). Rechnung ist möglich. --> Der Workshop ist auch auf anderen Plattformen ausgeschrieben. Es gibt mehr Teilnehmende als bei Meetup zu sehen sind. \-\-\-\-\-\-\- Gute Freunde & Freundinnen reden über ihre Ziele & Träume. Sie schauen zurück auf das vergangene Jahr und überlegen, wie das nächste werden soll. Genau das machen wir in diesem Workshop auch. **☕ In gemütlicher Atmosphäre widmen wir uns 4 Themen:** 🙏🏼 Wie war mein 2025. Was war großartig? Was war lappig? 🌴 Wie stelle ich mir mein Leben vor? 🌻 Wie soll mein 2026 werden? 🚂 Wie möchte ich die Ziele in 2026 umsetzen? Wir denken nach über das eigene Leben & das nächste Jahr - und sind gleichzeitig immer wieder im Austausch. **🌳 Gemeinsame Inspiration & Referenz** Deine Ziele für's nächste Jahr entstehen nicht im stillen Kämmerlein, sondern verbunden mit anderen. Dabei teilst Du, was Du teilen möchtest - was Du lieber für Dich behältst, bleibt Dein Geheimnis. Am Ende hast Du einen Plan für 2026. Du hast Dich mit anderen darüber ausgetauscht, Dich inspirieren lassen und vielleicht habt ihr ja sogar ähnliche Pläne? **Der Tag ist auch eine Referenz für:** Wie wäre es, wenn ich mit meinen Freunden gemeinsam einen solchen Tag gestalte? Die Unterlagen dafür hast Du ja im Anschluss und kannst gleich einen Termin mir Deinen Freunden vereinbaren. Ich freue mich auf jeden Fall auf gute Gesprächen & einen angenehmen Tag. **📝 Agenda:** * 8:45 Uhr: Ankommen, Tee & Schwatz * Kennenlernen & Rückblick 2025 * Lebensvision & Träume * 12:30 - 14:00 Uhr - Mittagspause * Deine Ziele für 2026 * Schärfung & Umsetzung * 18:00 Uhr - Ende . **🥗 Essen & Trinken** In der Mittagspause kannst Du Dich auf eigene Kosten in einem der zahlreichen, umliegenden Restaurants & Imbisse versorgen, sitzen & schwatzen. Bring Dir gern auch Snacks für den Tag und zwischendurch mit. Ich stelle **verschiedene Tees** **und Kaffee** zur Verfügung. . **🏡 Location** * Wir treffen uns bei mir am Wohnzimmertisch. * Für das Gefühl von chilliger Gemeinsamkeit ist gesorgt. . 🚫 **Was ist der Workshop nicht:** **Der Workshop ist kein Tschakka-Workshop.** Ich glaube, Du kannst (fast) alles erreichen, was Du willst. Doch ich glaube, die meisten Teilnehmenden werden eher solide Themen für 2026 haben. Dennoch bin ich offen für große Ziele - schließlich arbeite ich selbst an etwas Großem (Das Buch über Freundschaft). Für ein klein wenig Tschakka ist also auch Platz - nur eben keine Techno-Musik & blinkende Lichter. **👱🏽‍♂️ Über mich:** * Betreiber der Seite [www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de](www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de) * Ausgebildeter NLP-Trainer ([DVNLP](https://www.dvnlp.de/)) & Coach * Seit 15 Jahren setze ich mir selbst Ziele mit Freunden. * Jahrelang selbstständiger Unternehmensberater (u.a. über 5 Jahre Strategieberater für die Bundsbereitschaftsleitung des Deutschen Roten Kreuzes) * Eigene Vita: Von schüchternen Jungen zum fitten Mann * u.a. Weltreise: 1 Jahr allein eine Runde um den Globus. Das war fett! * Mehr über mich: [LinkedIn - Georg Preller](https://www.linkedin.com/in/georg-preller/) **😲 Ehemalige Teilnehmer/innen meiner Meeups:** "Was Georg kann: Tiefgang & Spaß zu gleichen Zeit. Ich bin immer wieder gern dabei!" . "Während des Workshops habe ich erkannt: In der Firma setzen wir uns jedes Jahr Ziele und reden mindestens ein Mal in der Woche darüber - nennt sich Meetings oder Jour Fixe bei uns. In meinem Privatleben lasse ich das schleifen und wundere mich, warum vieles nicht zu meiner Zufriedenheit läuft. Jetzt habe ich meine Ziele für 2024! Danke." . "Ziele alleine setzen ist ja nett, doch angenehmer finde ich den Austausch mit anderen. Ich mache mir das jetzt zur Gewohnheit. Interessant fand ich, welche Themen die anderen hatten. Wir sind doch alle gleich und doch verschiedenen." . "Georg bietet ein solides System, wie man sich seine Ziele setzt. Alles bedacht, und auswählen kann ich alleine. Man merkt, dass er eine gute Ausbildung hat. Gut finde ich, dass wir sowohl das gesamte Leben angesehen haben als auch das nächste Jahr." . "Sympatisch, übersichtlich, direkt. Dankeschön!" . **👋🏽 Get & stay in touch:** **✈ Telegram-Kanal: [t.me/abenteuer_freundschaft](http://t.me/abenteuer_freundschaft)** für Events, Workshops & Neuste Erkenntnisse aus der Freundschaftsforschung (nur Kurznews) **✉ Freundschafts-Newsletter:** [https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/newsletter](https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/newsletter) Alle 4 Wochen das Neuste aus der Freundschaftsforschung.

**Caller: Gaye Fifer** **Band: Hot Coffee Breakdown** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!

Step into 2026 with intention, clarity, and a creative practice designed to help you see yourself more clearly. In this special Confidence Lab session, we’ll explore confidence as something you can curate - through the choices you make, the qualities you amplify, and the story you choose to step into. We’ll start with a short guided reflection to surface the traits, habits, and energies you want to nurture in the coming year. Then, using collage materials selected specifically for this workshop, you’ll translate those insights into a visual composition that represents the version of yourself you’re ready to grow toward. This isn’t about resolutions or perfection. It’s about crafting a grounded, imaginative vision of your next chapter - one that feels honest, energizing, and fully yours. All materials are provided. Just bring yourself (and a friend) and a willingness to explore what confidence can look like for you in 2026. **Featured Partner: Columbus Collage Collective** The Columbus Collage Collective was started in August of 2023 by Emily Morgan (aka Lovely But Dead) and Douglas Cuckler (aka Wonder Doug) as a place for collage enthusiasts to gather and create art together. The collective has since become a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with the mission to hold free or low-cost collage events across central Ohio. The CCC welcomes all artists of all backgrounds and skill levels and encourages folks to take this time to step away from everyday existence and create art with people who share a love for this dynamic art form. All materials—magazines, scissors, craft knives, glue, paper, cardboard, and more—are provided, so there's no need to bring anything at all (though you're welcome to bring a friend or a favorite tool if you'd like!). We also encourage folks to take home magazines and materials from our events to support continued creativity!

Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully—you belong here. Our work demands clarity, courage, and conviction—but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work. It’s designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to lead with authenticity and impact. ***Please note:*** *All are welcome! If cost is a concern, please use promo code PUBLIC to access a free ticket—we want you to join us.*

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Here is the secret of being positive and free: Thinking positively is not enough. You also have to get rid of the negative thinking. Your mind is like a garden. You can plant many beautiful flowers in it, but if you don't get rid of the weeds when you plant your flowers, the weeds will soon take over the whole garden. A positive thought is like a flower in your mental garden, and a negative thought is like a weed. You cannot expect to have a positive mindset if you continue to have negative thoughts dwelling and growing there. So, how do you get rid of the negative thoughts? That's what this Meetup is all about. Attend this local meeting and find out! The Meetup event will be led by a consultant who had helped many people live happier in life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics & Scientology life improvement center.

Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
