I nas in England & Scotland this summer - if you're still there, be careful when you've mastered it enough to relax and drop down your guard. That's when you start making the really dangerous mistakes, for me it was about a week in (luckily my wife was my trusty copilot and warned me before anything bad happened).

Thanks, Gregor, for your perspective! — I only drove on the left for three days, but it's really important to stay focused and not revert to default.

I'm glad you had a trusted co-pilot — that's a great addition for change management: 'Find a co-pilot to keep you on track.'

Great read! Particularly resonates, because I was a couple of days before you visiting Ireland and went to Cliffs of Moher as well. I didn’t rent a car, but went with a group with the bus from Dublin!

And you seem to have had a really great weather. When I visited it was a bit more cloudy.

We had a really similar trip then. I'm glad it resonated with you, Gregor!

We were lucky, as it was sunny only on the one day we drove to the cliffs.

"Start small, if it does’t need to be radical, make it iterative" - I think many people forget about that. But it's a crucial change in the mindset.

This was a nice story, thanks for sharing, Michał. Being incremental, following the right people, and repeating the process is the "secret" behind successful things we can build for ourselves. The same principles can be applied if someone wants to lose or gain weight, start a profitable side-business, or simply get better at a new technology.

Yes, and these rules seems universal, great examples.

Thanks for your perspective, Akos!
