BOOK Summary Model for the Meaning of Life All of us long to lead a good life, and a fulfilling one at that. But which ingredients do you need to accomplish this? Isn't it bizarre that even after thousands of years' progress by man, there is still no elementary model, no pure and simple guideline on how to lead a fulfilling and happy life? According to Bert van Dam, this model does exist. The makbuntu-model is a secret which was hidden away in Africa. It revealed itself during a visit to the Serengeti where Van Dam and his family witnessed a huge herd of wildebeest cross the Mara-river. With this spectacle, Mother Nature disclosed various clues which eventually lead to the makbuntu-model. The epiphany Van Dam had been after for 25 years. And it hit him right between the eyes. BAM! The word "makbuntu" is a combination of the Arabic word «maktub» (= it is written in the Universe) and Zulu «Ubuntu» (= to be one with your surroundings). The makbuntu-model is based on three ingredients: creation, love and appreciation. Every person is on this planet (1) to create from the heart - your creation is what you contribute to the world; (2) to give and to receive love, and (3) to appreciate all creations in existence. This circle of giving and receiving is in perfect harmony; on par with the Laws of Nature. When you abide by makbuntu, your life will become worthwhile and fulfilling. Many people lack a day-to-day balance. They live their life doing work that doesn't meet their heart's desire (resulting in alienation and stress), they overly focus on worldly goods (not giving enough love) and or don't appreciate the beautiful things life offers. These people can be found everywhere - reduced to empty shells. Human beings who in time will look back on their life with countless regrets. CREATION - LOVE - APPRECIATION Fortunately, there is another way. "We all have two lives; the second one begins when we realize we only have one." So stop muddling about and settling for a mediocre life. You deserve top-notch, this is why you should embrace makbuntu. It will brighten the world - perhaps that is the true "purpose" of makbuntu. Shining examples can be found all around us. In this book, you will find practical methods that you can deploy right away. As soon as you've finished reading, just set off to make your life the best life possible! The Crossing "A young wildebeest calls out, the first jump into the water." "The first of the herd have safely reached the other side." "The crossing full-steam ahead" Bert van Dam The «How and Why» behind BAM! Makbuntu is meant for people who want to lead the best life possible. Not just mediocre but top-grade. The makbuntu-model is a basic navigator which indicates the path to the best life for you. It will be serve as an excellent tool to transform your life into a work of art. A masterpiece to look back at with pride.

Bert van Dam - Summer 2014 PARISBOOKS BAM! Makbuntu | Model for the Meaning of Life Bert van Dam: 'The true Meaning of Life is free of mysticism.' What is the recipe for a life of fulfilment? Discover state-of-the-art philosophy BAM! Makbuntu. Model for the Meaning of Life (September 2014), affirmed by former top Executive, Bert van Dam. In the course of 2014, he turned his life around to fully commit to his quest 'to help people lead the best life possible'. He defined makbuntu; a model which is within everybody's reach: for managers, entrepreneurs, sensible go-getters as well as for all other pragmatics. In the African Serengeti, Bert van Dam and his family witnessed a herd of over 7,000 wildebeest cross the Mara-river. It was a fascinating display of dynamics. This event opened his eyes to his true calling in life. It was not to be Director of a big telecom corporation nor to make a bundle. Van Dam developed a new model for the Meaning of Life and put it into writing. This resulted in his book BAM! Makbuntu. Model for the Meaning of Life, to be published in September 2015. Creation, Love, Appreciation The word "makbuntu" is a combination of maktub (Arabic - "It is written in the Universe") and ubuntu (Zulu - "To be one with your surroundings"). The makbuntu-model is based on three ingredients: creation, love and appreciation. Van Dam offers his readers practical methods to implement this model directly into their daily life. 'Creating from the heart reveals a person's authentic core.' - from: BAM! Makbuntu Auto Pilot Not many managers openly integrate their spiritual views into their professional life. Bert van Dam, however, has been doing so for 25 years now. 'I see many, many unhappy people who live on auto pilot. And when they reach old age, what are they going to tell the grandchild sitting on their lap? Supposedly not about the balance of their bank account. Of course not, they will yearn to talk about great friendships and love, given as well as received. About meaningful achievements; legacy from following their heart's desire. That's the drive that I want to rekindle in people's lives.' Bert van Dam (1966) held the position of Managing Director at Planet Internet, Phonehouse Nederland and Phonehouse Europa (4,000 employees) respectively. He is co-founder and CEO of MultiplyHappiness BV, a company aiming to generate more happiness worldwide. www.multiplyhappiness.nl For more information (end of August), please visit www.makbuntu.com «We are one with Nature.
