It was the Silver Fox that I met today. I had noticed him once or twice before – very elite looking – impeccable dress, commanding presence.
“Is this seat taken?” he asked. (at Starbucks)
“No” I said, as I was focused on my SalesMap. After I overheard some small talk with him and another individual, I stretched up from my computer and noticed his power tie.
“Wow, I blurted out – that is a great tie.” And we began conversing.
He engaged with a question. Then I did the same. There was a moment where he seemed turned off. Just another mortgage guy, he assumed. “Good luck with your new thing” As he turned back to his paper. Little did he know- thats not me.
So I reengaged with another question – his work. This turned into an exciting conversation, we both our shared backgrounds, built rapport, made connections, and learned a little about the each other. He is a visionary, working on the big picture from one of the top floors in Columbus, for one of the largest organizations in USA.
Very engaging conversation and I look forward to the next!!! What is the precessional effect? This is what I live for…what happens next in my movie of life, because of this random meeting?!
The best part of this random coincidental meeting is a trust in my gut. As I was getting ready at 5am, I had this reoccuring thought to skip the gym and go to Starbucks and work on SalesMap and B.YONEST website.
Lesson 1: Trust the gut and continue to act on inspired thought.
Lesson 2: Pay attention to response you get and act accordingly to get your desired response.
It is. I am sitting at Industry Standard (IS) right now, while B. is spitting over an Obie and Busta record from 5 years ago. SLEPT ON and now brought back to streets!
