253 – Missed Windows of Opportunity
Manage episode 477275016 series 1028900

This morning I felt the inspiration to record a podcast episode…
I got my hotel room set up with my computer and my microphone, and there it sat.
I missed the window of opportunity… for whatever reasons, I did not record.
And this afternoon, the inspiration was fading away.
And then I remembered something.
Often in the past, I’ve found that exercise is not only good physically, but it’s also good mentally and emotionally as well.
So I went down to the exercise room and ran some miles on the treadmill and did some pushups.
And it worked.
When I arrived back in my room, I seized the opportunity and recorded some thoughts about missing windows of opportunity, learning from them, and continuing on.
If you listen to the audio for this podcast, you’ll hear about the following:
- How I finally got today’s episode recorded.
- A missed window of opportunity for a timely departure at Chicago O’Hare.
- A young man named Alex who I met at a Cleveland airport.
Hope you enjoy the episode!
And remember, don’t get bogged down in the missed windows of opportunity behind you…
Instead, look for the open windows of opportunity in front of you now, and go for it!
And if you have a story to share, please click the button over on the side of the website and leave me a voice message… I’d love to hear from you.
