Finally, on his twelfth day on Charleston, a locker is available to Adam so that he does not have to carry around all his belongings with him. He gets on the bus and goes to Fast Labor. His first moving job that day is an apartment on the third level. He is determined to do well on his first task, even though it is a daunting one. He keeps a positive attitude. Curtis instructs Adam to drive to the moving site; he has never driven a moving truck before, so it is a little difficult for him. They eventually get to the apartment and load all of the client's possessions onto the truck. It is a successful move, and Adam realizes that even though he is not as strong as the other movers, he does not stop. He is persistent in his work. Adam is relieved to know that he know has somewhat of a schedule. He spends his afternoons walking around the city or going to museums; he does anything that is free of charge. He keeps his intentions good. He does not go out late partying and drinking. He knows that will only hurt him in the end. His goal is to be financially successful by the end of the year, and he allows nothing to stand in his way. Adam and his fellow shelter-mates do not care about what other people think. They do not try to impress others or try to hide their living situation. There is a lot of chaos going on at the shelter, but Adam keeps his eye on the prize: his continuation of his job at Fast Company and his financial success.
In this chapter, Adam reminds the reader that he should always stay focused. He doesn't get distracted when others do and he stays hard working and determined at his job. This is the one way to become financially successful.
