A beautiful Holland

In 2020 we live in a beautiful Holland. An ambitious society - because we assume infinite possibilities for everyone. Because we all use our talents to the best, everyone is actively involved in the society. Our positive attitude is an inspiration for the Netherlands itself and the world. We think in possibilities.

In 2020 we live in a beautiful Holland where sustainability in the broadest sense is embraced and taken for granted. The leaders of the Netherlands take the long-term vision for their decisions and responsibilities.

In 2020 we live in a beautiful Holland, a country that is innovative and entrepreneurial. We no longer think in terms of problems and crisis, but in terms of challenges and opportunities. We innovate, are smart and nimble

In 2020 we live in a beautiful Holland, a country that also in changing reality remains social as before. We are engaged, connected and responsible: in our own neighborhood and beyond. We give and take responsibility and we have trust in each other and in our society.

This is the Holland where we want to stand up for. This is the Holland where we want to test every decision we take now and in the future to.

~~ This is a beautiful Holland. ~~

IkBenDieVerandering (I Am That Change)

There's something we need to concern ourselves about more than economics or the environment: solidarity, tolerance and respect. Via IkBenDieVerandering.nl (IAmThatChange) we want to bring citizens of The Netherlands together who want to see this changed. We want to stop looking at others, and to start contributing ourselves to a fantastic Holland.

Contribute to a positive change in The Netherlands and inspire others to do the same.

Which change are you?

In the year 2020 the apparent misery of the credit crisis has long since passed. The Dutch economy - and hence the Dutch community - is running at full speed. Healthy, fresh and enriched with a better worldview. We have furnished our new life as individual role models.

Because we thought that life would deteriorate and the chances would disappear, we have become aware to think carefully about who we are, what we want to stand for and how we can ensure that every day counts. The required sharpened view of the acute emergency has awakened us to break our regular patterns. We will have gotten into action and we will have caused an improvement in our neighborhood. Call it a revolution, call it the inevitable confrontation with reality... Call it the vision for a better Holland (and perhaps a better world)!

The icons of the past have given us the wisdom and insight to not let history be repeated. These people have gone before us to act as role models and they have created a future to a personal and social vision. Improve your life by setting an example for who you are.

It's time for your unique talents to florish. Because everyone is born with the special gift from his or her identity to give freely to his or her surroundings. Maintain at the same time happiness, prosperity and good luck. Show what you are made of, now it is possible and now your help is definitely needed.

My name is Mr. Quintus Hegie, MSc and I am one of the 111 members of Visie Nederland (Vision Netherlands). Via my key position in the Mentality chapter of Visie Nederland it is my goal to move Dutch citizens from failure-seekers to opportunity-utilizers.

In the coming years I am committed to a future with more opportunities for:

I look forward to confirm my words with deeds in the coming years. Not a day in my life will go by without a sense of meaning and advancement in any of the above mentioned focal points. Step by step towards a Visie Nederland (Vision Netherlands) 2020.
