Calculated Risks Generate Reward
Find Your Reward Today!
My friend, “Mary”, shared an unusual story today. She is normally quite conservative but unexpectedly found herself doing something out of the ordinary. Mary was in New York attending a conference and everyone there was expected to find transportation to the evening event.
The line waiting for a taxi was very long. Mary was beginning to wonder if it were worth the effort to wait as the next event would be half over by the time she arrived, until… Upon overhearing the couple in front giving directions to the driver that they too desired to go to the same hotel, Mary quickly walked over to them to ask if she might share the cab. The couple looked surprised but said, Yes.
Once settled in the taxi, Mary introduced herself and asked what brought them to the same event. The gentleman, as it turned out, was the CEO of one of the largest companies in the industry of where Mary worked. The connection couldn’t have been better. Arriving at the hotel, Mary graciously paid for everyone’s fare.
Having returned to work, Mary is already contemplating at what point she may reconnect with the people she met in the cab in terms of career.
