eROI NYC Interactive Agency

In preparing for the move to New York City, my life over the last few months has been one big checklist. Or maybe a series of several check lists.  Find an apartment, get approved for apartment, get blackberry, sign contracts, notify landlords, pack, turn off electricity, turn on electricity, book flights, call movers, sell car….and on and on.  I found that living through a list ensures success while at the same time numbing you to the gravity of change that the list represents.  No where on my list was there a check box for the butterflies I got stepping onto the airplane or the feeling of excitement when you see the NYC skyline again for the first time.

So far the move has been smooth save a few minor instances of “shock and awe” and the occasional jaw drop when looking into the sky and finding mammoth skyscrapers and blinking lights. The New Year brings a ton of change and I have eROI to thank for it. It is a strange feeling to be living a life long dream that you never thought possible. On my way into work today while riding on the subway, I found myself grinning. Thinking of everything I had done to get here and the shear potential of what is to come.

So as I wait for my stuff to arrive at 348 W47th street apartment 1D, I have new lists to make and new frontiers to cross. I am committed and excited to be a success here. But as my new lists continue to grow I will must remain open to the power of this place and what it means to be here. Move in…check, Transparency…check, fulfilling a life long dream…check, rocking the NYC and making us millions…..ok, I’ll wait to check that one.
