Welcome to My Story Till Now (MSTN). This is my blog about my journey back to a new normal life after a serious bicycle accident in May 2023. I want to tell my story as I see and experience it, and how I use the help and knowledge I have gained through the journey.

Adding translation to Norwegian

I have now added a simple option where you can choose whether my stories should be translated into Norwegian or another language.
I use Google Translate, so bear over with it. It is Google's version of my English text, so it is AI translation, but it works pretty well.

This is the button you see. Hit it and a new window will open with the translation. Here you can navigate around as usual, but now in Norwegian. In the upper left corner of the page, after the Google logo, you have the option to choose any language you want to translate to. By default, I have chosen Norwegian.

Starting a new thread, Rebuilding

I'm starting a new thread, Rebuilding. You'll see a new tag on my blog called Rebuilding. The thread will be about tips and tricks I've learned to build people up, which I now use to rebuild myself, a kind of lifehack to build self-confidence, mastery, understanding who you are, find your strength, understand your inner self. Which might be useful for all of us with brain challenges and everyone else too.

I feel like my rehabilitation journey is a kind of shifting focus. Right now I'm at a place where I'm going back to my material from my working career. To relearn about team building, lifting people up, and motivations. These topics are about learning about who you are, how to build strengths, accept weaknesses as strengths, understand yourself, and master your task.

A big part of being a leader is about building confidence and competence in your team and in yourself. So I'm seeing my "old" knowledge suddenly make sense in my rehabilitation process, in my rebuilding process of myself.

Some of the stories I've been posting over the past few weeks are about Rebuilding. It's about me going back to my roots and rediscovering my true abilities, rebuilding what is actually my basic foundation, finding peace with myself to move forward with my life on a new path. The one that feels right for me now, in hopes of getting rid of all the "bad stuff" in my bag... okay, at least giving it a proper clean😁.

I feel like I've come to a point where I kind of have to accept my situation, accept that some things are gone, others have changed, and start looking at it, as I've been given the opportunity to stop and reevaluate my life so far and use this opportunity to live the rest of my life in a smarter and better way. To be who I really am, and noone else.

I can undo what happened, I can't go back and skip it, and everything else stupid I've ever done..., if I've done anything stupid, which I doubt😂. Okay, jokes aside, you get the point, it is what it is, but I can choose to use it for something positive, to make me grow into a better person, or at least try to do so😁.

So if you feel for it, follow me into the next fun chapter of my life, me trying to do better this time🙏🙏😳.

As usual, my stories are published on my blog page here, sorted from newest to oldest. It sometimes happens that I go back and update an earlier story, and when I do, it moves up by the date I update it.

Last comment: Some inspiration on a few of the stories you will find here is coming from my "other blog" about healthy lifestyle and food You can read it here, particular the section about Diet and Lifestyle

2026 - Looking ahead, change focus and direction.

Throughout 2026, I will shift my focus from what hat happen to me to how I develop, what I do and how I use the information I have gathered along the way, also how I go back to my "old blog" jahous.com and learn anew, to use my own experience and knowledge I use back in time when I change my lifestyle before.

My stories ahead will be more about Life Hacks, Experience, Learnings and adjusting lifestyle to adopt to my new life situation.

The layout for the pages and stories with focus on what I do, life hacks and tips, is also change so it's easy to se what is what in my stories

I am well on my way back to a meaningful life again, thanks to all the wonderful help I finally received when I arrived at Sunnaas Hospital late in 2024 and throughout 2025, so my expectations for 2026 are to continue to follow the path I found in 2025. It will probably not be straight forward, there will be obstacles I need to overcome, but with the knowledge and experience I have now, I am confident that I will get over or around them, and continue to move forward. My hope is to join the mentoring program at Sunnaas Foundation, and start giving back what I have received to others who need the help I have received.

This is a spin-off from my original blog, "jahous.com"
My Story Till Now is now live on its own domain "mstn.no",  late 2025, but will be maintain side by side with "jahous.com" 

I have been working for a while to build a new home for my rehabilitation journey. I saw that the articles I wrote were getting more and more readers. So to ensure the best possible layout and content, I decided to let the story stand on its own two feet. I was asked if I could share more about the background information and materials I use about acquired brain injury to help me in the process.

The second reason is that I want to translate all my articles into English, to adapt them to a wide audience, and after my injury it seems like it is much easier for me to write in English, my native language. Brain injury works in mysterious ways 😁

I will do my best to publish what I have, received, found and use. However, I must say that this is not professional material in any way, so please seek professional help from doctors and other health professionals to clarify your own health situation. What I publish and write are solely my own versions, but it is what I use and the results I have achieved in my process.
