It’s been a bit of a first night for me these last 7 weeks getting used to my new role and lots of things have suffered in the meantime, including my blogging here which I enjoy so much. But I’m back. A bit of time out of Auckland recently has seen me flying much more than I’m used to and if you know me you’ll know that it’s not something I’ve enjoyed recently but even that’s going okay somehow. Conditioning.

The movie First Night is a farce. A funny movie set in the beautiful Manderston House in Scotland. Always wanted a two kilometre long stone driveway. I used to listen to lots of opera but haven’t much lately. I think I’m into it again after First Night. It’s about the production of Mozart’s comic opera Cosi Fan Tutte and it’s glorious music, great setting and very funny too.
Sometimes you just need a feel good movie to get you back on track. As I let the story glide over me I realised these last seven weeks have been pretty intensive. Now it’s time to get back to being happy for myself, now that I’m settling in. And enjoy life.
That’s leadership. Leading yourself into a great spot.
I’ll be better tomorrow for it. Hope it’s all good for you too.
