Setting a date to move

So now I have a date to move and an idea of what to expect when in Nashville, I have to find some money to actually make the move. I knew I would need gas to get there and food. After I decided to move to Nashville I had to make a budget for the move. I moved to Nashville with less than $400 bucks. That bought me enough gas, food, and beer, to get started.

I’ve learned that planning is good, but to focus on solutions to any obstacles I need to overcome. Emerson says to move forward in the direction of your goals and what you need will come to you. There were people who thought I was crazy for moving, and that I would fall on my face and fail, moving back home with a broken spirit. But I focused on what I did have, and found solutions, and asked for help when I needed it. I knew once I got to Nashville, I could make it. The economy was much better than what we had in Buffalo, NY, and I was making it there. I didn’t have a college degree, or any trade skills, (like being a carpenter, etc), but I was a good worker, I worked hard, showed up on time prepared to work, I got along well with others, and I enjoyed being around people, so I knew I could always find opportunities to prove myself. I’ve learned that’s what it takes.
