I just moved to Chattanooga TN a year ago, mainly due to some advice from my friend Dan Miller. It's not been easy. As a matter of fact, many aspects of it have been pretty hard because we had no family or support system where we moved.

A local Fujifilm plant in Dayton TN is shuttering its doors and shifting production to other plants. You can reference an article about it HERE. As I read the article I could see the writing on the wall regarding this event. I'm not talking about a sudden thing either. I'm talking about a decades long build up to this event.…

Hi Dr. Dave (as I've heard you called), please call me William. It's a pleasure to connect with you and I will also say I enjoyed your guest blog post last week on Dan's website. I used to be one to follow the rules, but have come to realize that making positive and dramatic shifts in one's life requires your methodology - ie: breaking many rules!
Good luck on the weight loss. My day J-O-B has created a sedentary environment where I have added 20-25 #'s in the last 2 years. Definitely want to break that habit as well as the bad habit of being an employee. ;)
Cheers!
William

Aren't we both so lucky. Life is always exciting.

I look forward to being part of this amazing group. Let me know if there are any ideas you would like feedback on.

Tammy Hopper said… - I sat next to you at the Nov. seminar. I just joined this website and wondered what you have to say about it.I love the scripture you listed regarding all things done decently and in order. It hit home with me because I know all things are in perfect and devine order so I am still waiting. I am still searching for the work I love.
