👇What I learnt in 2023
➡️ Stepping out of your comfort zone is tough, but worth it
We left the ease breezy pace of Goa for the air conditioned towers of Dubai. In a matter of 6 intense months we found a lovely home, friends like family and opportunities for professional growth. the move brought a lot of new experiences - good and bad into our lives. Looking back I am just grateful we had the opportunity to try something new, change in itself is invigorating.
➡️ Your never too old to fail, and it’s okay
After twenty years of driving, I am failing miserably at local driving tests. It’s intimidating but I am determined to keep at it. It’s been a long time since I actually felt nervous before a class. On the bright side it makes me feel like I am twenty again !
➡️ Never rest too comfortably on past laurels
I had reached a point in my 20+ year career, where I didn’t need to work hard at proving myself. Credibility has been established and projects would just appear. Putting myself out there, building a network from scratch takes effort, but also humility. Overcoming rejection and keeping my sight on my larger goals has helped me develop more resilience.
➡️ Good people are everywhere, you just need to reach out
So grateful to have met so many wonderful and helpful people in such a short time. Professionally people have been so open to dialogue and discovery. Personally new friends and old connections have enveloped us with a warm hug. Our lives have been enriched with intellectual and cultural diversity.
That said, it’s easier to thrive in a new environment when you have the unconditional support and encouragement of old friends, family, clients and colleagues who are with you every step of the journey.
