Monday Aug. 21, 2006 - Year 4, Day 153 - 14 yrs. of gestation
14 yrs. ago I was introduced over lunch to a representative of a landlord; it was the beginning of a great working relationship, now a new partnership
along the way we found that knowing, liking & trusting each other was not just the development of a friendship – it was the foundation of a business venture
not having something fresh to say every day means nothing on its own; some days it just takes a little longer - some days not; first I take some routine, add some steps & my fingers just start moving on the keys; I write what I think about, what is on my mind in the moment, then I tell my story to this anonymous screen
I write what I think about, what is on my mind in the moment, then I tell my story to this anonymous screen
“The journey of thousand miles starts with a single step.” – Chinese Proverb
a great destination awaits, but first we need to take some steps
sometimes that might be a big meeting, a lunch meeting, a chance meeting or simply a chance of meeting
take the meeting, take the call, take the step
without that lunch, it never would have happened
you never know what will happen; but, sometimes, its just lunch
sometimes, most times, it is much more than that
sometimes it takes 14 yrs. of gestation, sometimes less
