Thinking about my return I can’t help but realize how my situation has changed – being a UK local. The words ‘temporary’ or ‘short-termer’ no longer apply. I can’t tell you how happy I am to know my plan takes me past Saturday night. I was so sick and tired of jumping from project to project, city to city, not knowing where I’d be beyond next week. That’s the nature of a typical consulting job but not something I want to subscribe to anymore. The bigger relief lies in my new found ability to ignore the short-term more often and focus on long-term success. The number of times I’ve tried to make a long term impact, only to be pulled away with a moment’s notice makes me sick.
Anyhow, London is good – been wet and cloudy. Trip planning is essential to my sanity. A side effect of the flights I booked to Copenhagen (New Years) and China (Jan 24 - Feb 2), I visited the US Embassy to get more passport pages. If you’re interested in a trip to China, just let me know…
