There are mornings like this morning where it just seems surreal. I got up early before the sun comes up, got dressed, headed to the airport, and wheels were up at 7:01 a.m. As the sun is rising, so is the plane. I just think about how great our country is where you can have a career or a business and can go anywhere you want and do anything you want to do.
As we kept gaining altitude, I thought about how fun it is to travel to all corners of America. It’s a random Wednesday in September, and I’m headed to the far north Midwest, where I get to go meet new people, talk about the service that my company provides, and experience a whole different lifestyle than the one I have at home.
It’s truly a great thing that I love about what I get to do. Different places, different days, different people, new ideas, new strategies, making things happen, and creating a positive environment. It’s just really one thing that I love about America and what America allows you to do.
It’s not for everyone. Some people get tired of the travel. Some people get tired of the wear and tear, and some just flat-out don’t want to do it. But for me, it’s the only life I know. It’s the only life I really want. And it’s so rewarding at the end of each day to go from city to city, place to place, meeting new people and having new opportunities. To me, that’s what America really is all about.
