Business, partnership, vision

I attended recently a seminar on how to start your own business. Apart from the benefits of the course, we also met interesting individuals who are all on the path of starting, restarting a venture in the UK. We shared our experiences and vision of the future and went separate ways with not a ounce of hopes in seeing each others again. Recently, one of the members got in touch to brainstorm some ideas for a possible collaboration. The person did not have my contact details but went through the organisation to get them. No one know what is going to happen after this initial meeting. Hopefully, a collaboration with new height will spark.

Then, I wondered, why did not I get in touch with one of the other attendee who had a very similar idea to mine? What stopped me? I missed the chance to get his contact details but I could have asked for it. It is not too late though.

We have to follow up on inspiration and dreams. Go the extra mile to get together with those we feel fit our vision. Better failing trying than failing to try to live in regrets.

Time to listen

Sometimes our own perspective on life may get in the way of what we understand when others speaks. Pause, breathe and really listen. You may learn something. if you are too busy with your own thoughts, you will not even realise what was said. You will probably misinterpret some important signal. So what to do, Pause, breathe, ask further questions before sharing an informed answer based on fact and not your own imagination

Are we good friend?

A friend came to visit. She brought flowers and a card. Inside the card, she wrote that I was an amazing friend. To her, at least. It is normal to question yourself on the quality of your friendship and whether or not  you are a good friend to other people, are you doing enough to engage, support, celebrate others when they go through major transition? How much more can you do while racing through life, its responsibilities and distractions? A good tool to use for reflection is the theory of attachment to understand yourself and how your type of attachement impact on the quality of relationships. Have a look and let me know what you think?
