#82 Colin Savage: A Change Addict’s Quest Across Borders—From Canada to Japan and Beyond — Part Two

My neck is hurting from how much I'm nodding, for your example, because one of the reasons and one of the benefits that I've had and the partner that I'm with, and she's actually been my sage. She's been my guide. The example that you with somebody from China, one of you an MBA, they're married, what are they gonna do? I have basically dragged my partner and then our kids around the world.

It was only until sort of the last one or two times that I realized I need to sit down and I need to talk to her. I need to ask her, what are you, what do you think about it? Not just me moving for a job and... to be the traditional one at the time, but not anymore, but the breadwinner for Hubli. She has been the one that said, okay, so we're moving. All right, where are we moving?

And then hit the ground running. And it was only later on the last couple of times that I've asked them, I'm concerned about this, or I'm not sure how that's going to work, or what are we going to do in this instance? And a lot of the things she's done is really ground ground. why we were going to go and move somewhere, why we were going to make a significant change in our lives.

To your example, I'm going to take it on, and then everything's going to be hunky-dory, and we're all going to be happy. But they didn't know that they could voice it. And so now it's more like a collective. So now we're sitting around in Canada and we're thinking, so what's the next step?

And my first step now is to go and talk to my two teenage sons and my wife and say, hey guys, what do you think about this? And the reality is, whatever our age is and wherever our life has taken us, They'll come up with questions and problems and scenarios or that's a challenge, that's difficult. And you've got to be a little bit more soul searching to figure out, is this really right for me?

Very recently, I found myself, and I think this also leads a little bit to my love for novelty. I don't think a day goes by where I don't find the topic that I go, hey, you know what? I should really study this. And then I go and I start to spend 10 minutes looking for universities where I could go and I could study. And I don't know if I'm ever actually going to get over that practice. Yeah.
