Being the right place at the right time. We hear about it all
the time from Rock Stars to Pro Sports Super Stars. Business leaders are no different. Being right there in the center of a moment
that brought you forward. On this
podcast episode we lean into this somewhat overused clarification. Cuz it always feels like someone other than
us is in the right place at the right time.
How about those plumbers, car mechanics, grocery store stockers and
other essential job employees that haven’t missed a paycheck since Covid
started. Right place at the right time? Those jobs that career chasers said they’d
never do are working while millions of others are trying to figure out if the
government is going to continue sending $600 a week unemployment checks. Teachers right now don’t want to think about
being in the right place at the right time.
They’re tucking in their chins and heading into the fire. Have I painted a large enough negative
picture yet? Being in the right place means
what to you? In 2020 where all things
feel like they’re going wrong, is there enough room for an itty bitty victory
that will help give you light in the darkness? This past Sunday. Sunrise.
Walking down a long and winding road through a collection of trees. As the sun rose, its rays of light began to
shine through the forest taking the shape of something special on the right
side. There in front of me was the
perfect picture of what life feels like.
The road goes on and on but in that place just to right is what I
captioned: God whispering, “Never stop trusting me.” Right place at the right time. Covid, the protesting and the financial
crisis being the road. The rays of light
representing an image of not being alone.
Before taking the walk at sunrise I had just written in my daily
writing, “I have never asked where are you God?
It’s always been show me your image.” I’m not saying to stop questioning the source
of your energy. Just ask to see it. We’re blinded by so much content and news
that we’ve gotten used to the idea that it’s ok to stop relying on what we call
reality versus what we assume is happening.
In this moment of now. Right
place. Right time. Don’t question it. Invite it into your right place at the right
time.
