Meeting with new boss
Ever since the meeting with our new boss this week, i've been super excited about my work and being part of building a new division for the Swedish Army. I have a positive view on the direction the boss want to steer things, and was inspired by his enthusiasm and high ambition for the Psyops Unit. The time is perfect for a leader to set a strong vision. Also, it wasn’t a day too late to gather everyone and have a forum for answers and questions, as we now steer into a new chapter as a team.
All happy at work then?
I’ve also been feeling excited about the Stab's Officer Course that my work is sending me to. Over the next three week’s I’ll be attending an international course about NATO's work methods and planning procedures. It will be fun to meet new international friends whilst gaining new skills. However, the next three weeks will be planned to the minute!
On top of work, my university course in Psychology is starting this week and there’s a pile of books to be read. I’m motivated to study and I am grateful to gain so much new knowledge at work too. Yet, all weekend I've felt that something is missing.
There is so much I want to do right now and only so much time... Is this really the path I want to embark on? Is this the right journey for me to pursue?
I feel my life has been turned completely up side down since I moved to Sweden, yet it’s strangely familiar and connected with my past. Having spent 10 years living in a multimillion people city must have shaped me as a person. A lot more than I have known before. My current lifestyle still feels like an experiment. I’ve embraced the differences, but I need to say it – my new hometown is limited! As lovely and picturesque as Enköping is, I can’t see myself living here long-term. Sooner or later I will need to make a decision of where I rather live. Or?
