🪟 THE WINDOW IS OPEN

When a young rising star politician was considering running for President of the United States, he sought out the advice of senior politicians.

Most told him he was too inexperienced to run and that he should wait his turn.

However, one senator let him know that chances like this rarely come along. He made it clear that he should:

Never count on that window staying open.”

So, he decided to run, and that crucial advice is how we came to know the young politician as President Barack Obama.

This story isn’t about politics.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a Republican, Democrat, moderate, or represent Mercury in retrograde.

This story is about windows of opportunity and how fleeting they can be.

Odds are you have a window of opportunity open in your life right now.

This means you have a decision to make. Lean away or into it.

Just don’t count on that window staying open indefinitely.

QUESTION TO ANSWER

What window in your life is currently open and could close if you don’t act?

💬 WORDS TO PONDER

“If a window of opportunity appears, don't pull down the shade.”
