Chance of a Lifetime

Filed under: business,marketing,personal — Erik Dobberkau @ 15:19

Maybe a few hundred years ago, this was quite the case. You would maybe have one chance to marry the right person, or you’d be stuck with a poor soul till the end. In the last century, this changed, slowly, not because the facts changed slowly, but belief, common sense if you like.

Today there are no more single chances of a lifetime. In fact, there are dozens of them every day. If you wanted to, you could change the entire course of your life every hour.
But most of us are sitting around, waiting for someone to tell us it’s now or never. This expectation of a fundamentally changing, but more important (because of human design), dramatic moment is one of the biggest lies we keep telling ourselves, our friends and our children. Because it makes a great story. But little difference. The difference is what we got to make ourselves.
