Chinese New Year Festival, dlr LexIcon Family Day, World Wetlands Day, Six Nations Rugby, Super Bowl <\/span><\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hi all!<\/span><\/p>\n

When you get this weekly newsletter, we will have lost the UK and 1\/12 of the year will be over already. :-O<\/span><\/p>\n

Regarding the UK not much that affects us directly will change yet, because of the transition period until the end of the year. But in our lives the clock keeps ticking without mercy.<\/span><\/p>\n

If 2020 is working well for you, you don’t have to be concerned about the first month being over already. But if your goals for this year are big and the progress has not yet been big enough, then now is the time to step up!<\/span><\/p>\n

And if you need a bit of support with your goals in life or work or just want some motivation, then send a mail to me at<\/span> goals@inspiringleadershipacademy.com<\/a> The Inspiring Leadership Academy is the training and coaching academy that I have founded not too long ago and we will send you information about a free online seminar that we will run in February.<\/span><\/p>\n

And now to the free events: This week will be a little quieter again in the event world. But when I say “quiet”, that doesn’t mean there are only few events, instead it means that there are not many attention grabbing headline events. But there is one “event” that I want to specifically mention because it will go away next weekend and will never return: The Science Gallery is currently showing an interesting exhibition about “Plastic – Can’t live with it, can’t live without it” and the exhibition will close on 09 Feb! So this weekend might be good to go there!<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, before the event list will hit you with lots of free events: The Dublin Event Guide totally relies on your help to pay the bills and there is a totally free way to help.<\/span><\/p>\n

And this is how you can help in a way that doesn’t cost you a single cent and it is super easy:<\/span>
\nJust go to<\/span> http:\/\/www.DublinEventGuide.com<\/a> and at the top you will find the sentence “Is this what you were looking for?”. Right below that sentence you should find a rectangular ad. Please click on it!<\/span><\/p>\n

The ad might change every time you open\/refresh the page, so I can’t tell you what it is promoting. And if you don’t see an ad there, please turn your Ad Blocker off and refresh the page and then do the clicking. ;-) Thanks!<\/span>
\nIf you click on the ad, I get between 5 and 30 cent. That is not much, but if enough people help, it will do the job to cover the cost to keep the Dublin Event Guide going.<\/span><\/p>\n

And here are two other ways to help:<\/span>
\nFirst: You can donate directly via<\/span> http:\/\/www.paypal.me\/DublinEventGuide<\/a>
\nSecond: You can “Buy Me a Coffee” here https:\/\/www.buymeacoffee.com\/DublinEventG<\/a>
\nThird: And for the Revolut people among you it is super easy via 0872931571.<\/span><\/p>\n

And here are the events: All events are sorted by start time, but watch out for the few events that have a “++” in front of them, the are particularly recommended. ;-) ALL events in this list are free, but some require booking! The market events that take place every week are only posted to people that have subscribed and on the website at www.dublineventguide.com<\/span>
