(5) You’ve got to move it, move it
The jobs in your town may have moved overseas, or the industries may have slowed down or shutdown; you may have to move it, move it. Don’t let fear paralyze you from exploring all your options. Depending on where you live in the country, some manufacturing and skilled labor jobs are not coming back. You will probably have to get retrained in something else or relocate. If you are able to move don’t be afraid to relocate but before you do, research the area and the opportunities. Your research should include: career opportunities, housing, schools, cost of living and houses of worship so that you can reduce the number of surprises once you move. Will your spouse be able to find work? Do your need to sell or rent your home? You may have to move across town, across country or across the world to explore career opportunities. Internationally renowned bestselling author Dr. Wayne Dyer says “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” So think of your journey as an adventure instead of something you dread. Don’t be afraid to explore and live a big, bold, beautiful life.
Depending on your age, your grandparents or great-grandparents probably left their homeland to find work in America. I’m sure they were nervous and filled with trepidation, but they still moved it, moved it. At least research and investigate relocation; let it be an option you explore. During bad economic times such as the Great Depression people moved, people made tremendous sacrifice and they made tough choices.
