Good luck Chris! If anyone can do you it you certainly can! I’ve taken the Empire Builder from Chicago to Portland and the landscape was amazing! Just remember to walk around a lot and stretch your legs, and keep your eyes peeled when you go through Glacier Park- I saw all kinds of wildlife.

Chris,

OK I’m a bit behind on reading your post as I’m on vacation in Japan – but better late than never! I’m glad I read this crazy story. I recently wrote about a phrase I read in a book “Survivor’s Club” which talked about what it takes to survive in a catastrophic life event. The key is exactly what you said – look for opportunities!

It’s so inspiring and I look forward to following the whole project launch!

I’m brand new to AONC and am a new convert to social media, so I’m a little nervous about posting this, my very first, comment, but was so inspired by your article and the comments of others that I just had to take the plunge….

Thank you, Chris, for sharing this story. I just started my business a couple of months ago and have been struggling with some of the typical hurdles new businesses face. The last few days have been especially difficult, so I was only able to read your article this evening (Sunday, here in Hawaii). Synchronicity is what got me to where I am today, and your story was a wonderful reminder of that. Have a great birthday! (Loved the Goethe quote, by the way!)

Wow, Chris, amazing connection.

I love when the Universe just plops them in your lap.

I had to giggle when I read you’ll be launching as you chug through North Dakota. You will be chugging right by me, albeit in the pre-dawn hours. I wish you well on this journey.

It was so cool to see you write synchronicity and also for the guts it takes to be willing to go with it…My husband and I are taking that route this summer heading back East, but driving instead of training it…have fun and I really look forward to more details about the trip and the launch!

Wow, I hope you enjoy the trip.

I know all about these kind of coincidences. Sometimes they’re like a confirmation to what you really want to do, but haven’t for one reason or another. Like the Universe is telling you, “Alright already, here’s another sign, now go for it!”

That’s awesome you’re going to be visiting Ukraine. I was born in Kiev and I’m actually going back again to visit my family there in July!

What an amazing idea! I’ve taken that train from msp to washington, hope you guys are staying in a room at least! Best of luck with the launch and happy early birthday. If I was in minneapolis, I definitely would’ve made the trip to Chicago for the launch!

Chris- Love when synchronicity appears like cosmic singposts pointing you in the right direction. Fear and excitement are 2 sides of the same coin. Enjoy it!
