New doors are always opening!
Doors are clanging and clattering open all the time.
But so often we miss them, because we’re not expecting them, or we’re looking at the wrong door!
We can get so absorbed in what we’re doing, nose to the grindstone, shoulder to the wheel, that we can miss all the opportunities that are floating about round us.
We are thinking that we have to stay on the same path, that this is what we’ve decided to do, so we have to plough on regardless,
And we can totally MISS fantastic chances!
I know I have!
It’s only with hindsight we see what was offered to us. We see that we missed it.
You know those experiments they do, when they ask people to count the number of, say, red shirts, in a video. Then at the end say, “Did you see the man in the gorilla suit?”
More often than not, the gorilla was completely missed! Despite being huge and completely out of place.
And that’s how we can miss things.
We’re focussing on one or two things we think are of most importance to us. And people walk by offering us fistfuls of money and we don’t even see them!
Allow for the magic!
So when you make a plan, by all means plan out your steps carefully so you know what you’re doing.
But you have to allow for serendipity.
If you keep your head down, nose to the grindstone and shoulder to the wheel 😊, you’re not going to allow in the MAGIC!
People like us know that to get where we want to go, we have to do things others won’t.
And while we’re working tirelessly towards where we want to be, we need to have our eyes open! We want to be watching out for those little opportunities that can leapfrog us forward.
Now what?
So you have your idea. You’re formulating your plan. What else do you need to get you over the line?
And where is this magic going to come from?
Don’t be stuck! Have a quick magic-inducing call with me so you can follow your plan while allowing for wonders to happen.
And you can get what this caller got: “I love how very open you are - I loved all the info and ideas you were able to give me.”
See you soon!
