On a certain level, you feel that you need to change. There are so many things speaking for a change, a move. You wan’t it so bad, yet the scary feeling is also there. What if it doesn’t work out? What if it is not better at all? What if it’s worse? Overcoming the fear of change, how can you do that?
I have been there! Moving from government service, in the Swedish Army, after 18 years – into the private sector. I know the feeling. This also taught me which kind of decisions you might face to reach the goal. One of those – either you go with the opportunities where you currently are, or you move to the opportunity you want. It can be that simple, yet, who do you have around you that is challenging you to face the facts?
From this experience, I also know how hard it is to restart you career in a new field. Learning a company culture, a totally different work culture – forcing you to question, why do I want this challenge? Why does my body and mind crave this challenge? These are questions that can put your feet so firm on the ground that you will be able to face resistance and strong winds, because you know where you are going, and more importantly why you want to get there.
I also know what it takes to move your career, and your family to a whole new country. Different culture, different language. With the curiosity of discovering, all the possibility of doing something wrong also emerges. The rational decisions that needs to be taken to do this, also comes with the emotional side. There are a range of emotions that comes with transferring to a different country. Who is partnering with you to guide you through them, and be by your side throughout this journey?
So, you want change, but you are afraid of what comes with the change? Let’s discover the reasons behind this! Let’s see how you can solve it, overcoming the fear of change!
