You may have seen this sign in many of my videos at awkwardcareer.com. But what most people don’t know is that when I was at the beginning of changing everything in my life, I stumbled upon this in a local store.
It was the first and only thing I bought for a long time to decorate the room I was renting when I moved out on my own. It really spoke to me in that moment and I keep it as a reminder to stay the course and do every thing possible today, to make life happy.
Have you ever found a sign right when you needed it?
