Day 51 ~ Deceptive
Like the saying goes,
"looks can be deceiving." I went to bed last night wrestling with the
decision of who to choose for a business deal. I had two suitable
candidates, but neither was ideal. However, I knew I would need to pick
one of them by the end of today. "I wish the perfect one showed up
tomorrow at the open house," I said to myself. Being realistic, I was
happy that I was going to meet in person one of the two candidates.
Minutes before he arrived, a couple showed up at the open house. It
bothered me that they would not give me the time I needed to learn more
about the scheduled candidate. My annoyance grew when the candidate
thanked me and left, but I didn't act on it. Instead, I took the time to
learn about the new avenue and the more I learned, the more I liked the
couple. By the end of the day, they had gone from being a bother to
being the perfect candidates.
