I’ve been having a lot of conversations with folks about oppotunities in their lives. What frustrates me is when I see them having opportunities, which could be really cool for them, but they then shoot it down without even really seein’ what it is.
An opportunity could be this huge blessing but you don’t know unless you investigate. So… INVESTIGATE. This doesn’t mean that you need to commit to anything but you owe it to yourself to take a look and see if you’d get anything out of this opportunity.
If you currently have a job and are happy with it but get presented with another opportunity, don’t shut the door on it right away. At least hear the party out, you never know. You may find that the new job would better meet your needs or make you more happy.
I guess my moral of the story is… don’t close doors, unless you’re absolutely sure.
