the ups-and-downs and sides-to-sides of the little things that make up life
Last night’s fortune cookie said, “Stop searching for forever, happiness is just next to you.” Somehow, the fortunes I get in cookies always seem to be really appropriate or really get me thinking. This one did both.
In my business life, I’m a total risk-taking maverick. I’m constantly launching new initiatives and being the first in our little corner of the industry to trial new technologies. And, I love it. In fact, the opportunity to do the latter was why I chose my current job over other offers. The crazy thing? I’m the total opposite in my personal life. Hence, why last night’s fortune got me thinking. Maybe I’m waiting for something that’s never going to happen instead of just “doing it” and fixing or changing things as I go.
That one sentence helped remind me that I need to keep leaping and building my wings on the way down. “Wings” aren’t forever, I can always change things, and if worse comes to worse, I can always walk away… no harm done, nothing major lost.
