032 Taking Risks
Sep 8, 201700:09:17Tap to summarizeIf you've ever moved to a new city, you know it's a daunting task, but it's very rewarding. I've moved to a different city 5 times in the last 7 years. No, I'm not running from the law LOL, I just believe in taking opportunities that align with my goals when they present themselves. I regret none of the moves, and each of them set me up better than the last one. In addition to planning and research, you really want to make sure you're in the right mental space. Get used to taking risks. The money situation will never be perfect, the job situation will never be perfect, and if you keep waiting on one of those things to change, you'll never change yourself. You'll remain where you are. Eventually, you have to take a deep breath and DO IT!
