Pär “Pat” Söderlund

My name, Pär, is not the best for international use. Trust me on this one: Russians say Pr, Japanese people say Pal and Australians + New Zealanders hear it as Pat and thinks it’s a nickname for Patrick. Therefor I prefer to say Pat when presenting myself followed with:

“I’m an entertainer who help people to let go of their worries for a while. I also work as a pedagog and salesman because I get inspired by the fact that words are powerful and oh, I always have loads of projects going on, usually about life hacking, training and the 80/20 principle.”

Because I have done loads of stuff in my life I thought it was a good thing to get an own shelf for it all. This page is it! You will find some old, new and informational stuff about me to get a picture of what I do.

Welcome to my home at the internet.
/Pat, Pr, Pal, Pär
