Who am I?

​

As you can see, the image above is an open book and symbolizes me as a person. Open, honest in text, material and always accessible to everyone..... Everyone writes their own book and writes their own story, below you can read part of my book and my story.....

My name is Paul van Tatenhove, born in Geldrop on January 3, 1976 and raised in Eindhoven, proud father of two beautiful children (Sem and Linn) and more than happily married to their mother Tanja.

In my spare time I like to exercise at the gym, run on mountain bike trails and do trail runs. My goal is to summit the Tour du France every year for the next 7 years. This goal was created on July 29, 2021 because then it was for me, my DAY ONE and I turned on the light….

​

I also think it is important to spend as much time as possible with the family to create beautiful moments together. With Sem and Linn we go to swimming lessons, judo, gymnastics and ballet lessons every week. We also like to go out for a walk and go on many fun excursions... you read it, there is always action in the Tatenhove house. Life is getting a little shorter every day, no, every second... so we enjoy the moment to the fullest and as a family we ensure that we live our best life together. I work for the youth academy of P.S.V. as a supervisor within the talent program (Youth Scouting Understructure) but I am first and foremost a soldier and Mindset coach.

 

I am an emotional person and a real people person, I like to be connected and am therefore always there to support anyone physically and mentally. As a person, I realized and learned, partly through my diagnosis of melanoma cancer in 2021 (my DAY ONE), that an energetic lifestyle is the result of a healthy lifestyle. From your strength and energy you make better and healthier choices for yourself and as a result you live many times more successfully and healthier and it makes you more energetic. This allows you to focus better on your goal(s) and achieving them. You will also be in better contact with yourself and therefore with the people around you. I am convinced that if you really want something and go for it with Courage, Dedication and Resilience, you will achieve that goal. Because I have undergone a metamorphosis due to my diagnosis and have lost 21 kilos as a result, I can say that I can now see myself as an expert by experience. However, that does not mean that I am there yet, in fact, every day life brings me beautiful new challenges and therefore learning moments. My grandfather was not yet an adult when he died, which shows that you are never too old to keep learning.

 

We all walk in the dark sometimes. But in life, just like all children today, we have to learn to turn on the lights ourselves.

 

When I was diagnosed with third degree melanoma cancer with a metastasis in my left armpit on July 29, 2021 (my DAY ONE) at the age of 45, and the doctor asked me to go up four floors from the ground floor to to schedule an intake for an operation. That was the moment to turn on my light and my first thought from now on was "never again with the elevator" or anywhere with the stairs, so always take the difficult route and take on the challenges. At that moment my journey from that deep dark valley to that peak began and in my case it literally turned out later. Because in every deep valley there really is that high peak! This has become one of my mottos and a beautiful metaphor for the mindset that I have developed from that moment on, because a winner never gives up and a quitter never wins, another beautiful one...

After the operation was over, I made a plan together with my physiotherapists Timo Arts and Michael Krombacher from Fitness4all in Berghem (NB) and on the advice of my wonderful wife Tanja, to get me completely fit again, which resulted in my lifestyle has completely changed in a positive way. Ultimately, through a strong iron will and a winning mentality, I have reached the point where I am top fit and have the mindset to stay that way. Because yes and there it is again...a winner never gives up!!!

 

It brought me to where I am now in life and you know... my light is still on because every day I owe it to myself and my loved ones to ensure that the light goes on so that I can continue to tell my story in my book write and continue the path of challenges and victories with a clear eye. This allows me to stay “on track” and get the best out of myself and I can literally be a shining example for my children, my wife and hopefully for you too!

 

My mottos include:

- A winner never gives up!

- In a deep valley lies a high peak.

- Never take the elevator again, so always take the difficult route.

- Get strength from bumps and setbacks

- The world is big enough to do good!
 

In short, positive thinking will always get you there, the power of your will and ability lies in your thoughts! If you set a goal for yourself, go for it with conviction, persevere, the want will turn into an intrinsic need!

 

I believe that the most energetic person is the next5 pillars has in order:

​

1.He/She provides Healthy Food

2.He/She takes Optimal Rest (Mindset)

3.Provides Sufficient Exercise

4.He/She has Financial Peace of Mind (Income)

5.And has a connecting factor (Connection)

Through our5WH method, I help you or your organization to become completely fit again and/or, if you already were, to clarify your goals even more, to maintain them and to achieve them based on your true conviction and own strength.

​

When you gain insight or have insight into who you are as a person or organization, you can move on, but if you have lost this and have the will to investigate what actions you need to break old habits and then renew old conditioned thoughts and habits through repetition. By reprogramming you can replace them with new good and positive thoughts and habits. This will help you grow into a better version of yourself or your company/organization. By making a habit of the right actions for you, I help you as a person or as an organization to find the right balance or  to regain. This gives you grip and control over your life or your organization again under control and in balance. Achieving your goal(s) will then happen in a more pleasant and energetic way and the road to your goal will become a lot clearer and easier. When bumps or setbacks come along the way, you are more resilient and easier to adjust to change course. You then have more power to keep focus on your goal. The load capacity is always higher than the load. We at ORDAYONE.COM are ready to take on challenges together with you and set and realize goals. By “resetting” your body and mind or your business every now and then, you ensure that you can make a new start or a fresh start from your strengths with new healthy habits and goals!
