Right now I'm sitting on the 7th floor of a swanky resort is Las Angela's California, Unable to sleep because of my nerves. I'm in this fabulous city to learn more about my company and meet the amazing people I work for. The store manager program is an honor and I feel proud to be here.
Last night as I was trying to fall asleep, I was looking out the window in my room. I have a small balcony (literally a foot and a half) with full length windows running the length of the room. The lights of the city are so bright they're like my own personal night light.
Tonight I feel insignificant and yet special all at the same time.
I have a opportunity to shine this week and to become stronger than I have ever been. But considering I am one of millions in this city, it's surprising to me that I can feel pride, strength, or resolve. (And yet I do)
I feel strong in my knowledge of the company and my customers.
Pride in myself for making it this far, this young!
And resolve to make it worth it.
A week from tomorrow I set foot on the biggest, scariest, adventure of my life.
I'm moving to Albuquerque New Mexico to be the manager of a remodeled high volume store.
I have to leave home, my amazing friends and my favorite people in the whole world, my family.
I'm confident in myself and my skills but I cant shake this fear that's been haunting me.
The what if's will get you every time if you let them!
