I don't think there is anybody that enjoys moving, but it seems particularly stressful when you are moving your business. As I'm sitting here on a Friday evening, surrounded by piles of boxes and stacks of un-organized papers trying to figure out where to begin, I can't help but feel grateful.
I'm grateful for my interns, family and friends for helping me with the actual packing and lifting, which was NOT easy (thanks Stefan and PJ for being my "muscle"). Despite the fact that I moved half my office into storage and the other half into a 2nd floor office (no elevator), no one complained once!
I'm especially grateful for my beautiful new office suite and my new "roommate" Joe Bunn. You may "know Joe" as probably THE most successful (and good-looking, I might add) DJ's in the Triangle. In my opinion, his company sets the standard for success in the wedding business and is an inspiration for all entrepreneurs. He not only rocks the best weddings & parties around town, you can grab a beer with him every Thursday night at Hi-5 downtown.
So as I spend my weekend un-packing, I'm going to begin looking forward.
Forward to all that this exciting new location will offer and a year full of new opportunities for us as a company. Despite the challenge, I will hold close the motivational words of Alan Cohen,
It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power
So here's to moving and maybe if I'm lucky, I'll get a few spare moments to watch a bit of basketball! Cheers.....
