In part thanks to the wonderful public and private messages I have received from my &#8220;Brain Drain&#8221; post. I am reminded of how many wonderful and insightful friends I have around me who messaged, skyped, and called me to ensure I was okay. I don&#8217;t spent enough time with you all. I turn down too many invitations. I have defined fun in terms of the name of the restaurant or club instead of the people around me. I recognise that I am part of my own &#8220;problem.&#8221; I need to once again become a disruptive force in my own life. It was that way of thinking that made me decided to live in France for a summer when I was younger; that caused me to pull up roots and move to Sweden; to make it a goal to stroll confidentlly where angels fear to tread; and to where necessary, be willing to make radical changes to my social networks to enjoy and appreciate a diversity of people. Even time I have taken this path to shake things up from the status quo, I have been happy with the result. I need to remember that life is ultimately a people-centered experience.<\/p>\n<p>So my reboot &#8211; besides a relaxing weekend at Boda Kvarn with Candice, Johan, champagne, and good company &#8211; is also to re-examine these things. So give me some time. I hope you&#8217;ll see that the change and the reboot &#8211; yield something positive.<\/p>\n<p>I feel humbled that even though I am 25 years old with over a decade of experience &#8211; I am still learning and have the capacity to do so.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever you decide to do this weekend, have fun!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><i>Posted via <a href=\"http:\/\/m.livejournal.com\/ipad\/link\">LiveJournal app for iPad<\/a>.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So the theme this week is about having a reboot &#8211; in many different ways.
