You think you’ve lost, but actually you’ve won. Listen to a friend’s take on things. They have a clearer read on matters than you.
You may not be able to help out a friend, but you know somebody who can. Make that phone call today. It’s a real lifesaver.
You met with so much resistance that you’re tempted to give up, but keep pitching your idea. You’re about to connect with just the person who can help.
You may be out of the running for the gold but what’s wrong with silver? Second best is nothing to sneeze at and a precious medal is still precious.
Call time out with a colleague or client and get to the bottom of what ails. Not only is it proactive, but it makes good business sense too.
You’re asked to pitch in with a project that’s “beneath” you. Say “yes”. It’s the start of that new direction you’ve been searching for.
