Happy Monday Buy Me A Coffee Members, Friends, BRIDGE Ambassadors and Awesome Humans,
Real stories make the best experiences and today I have a great one!
I met with a LinkedIn contact at 1:00 p.m. ET yes, on a holiday...
Within the first 15 minutes, I knew the meeting was completely unaligned.
The purpose was unclear.
The energy was wrong.
The conversation was not moving toward anything meaningful.
I could have remained in the meeting and tried harder to make the connection work.
I could have allowed my ego to take over and questioned what I should have said differently.
Instead, I accepted what those 15 minutes revealed.
Not every meeting is meant to become a relationship, collaboration, or opportunity.
Sometimes, the value of a meeting is the clarity it gives you.
The question is what you do next.
Do you allow one unaligned experience to affect your confidence?
Do you keep replaying what did not work?
Or do you put your ego aside, take the information, and step back up to the plate?
Success is not built because every attempt works. It is built through our willingness to examine what happened, make an adjustment, and return with greater clarity.
That is the value of a Second Opinion™.
THE BRIDGE Second Opinion™ Room gives you a place to bring the meeting, decision, opportunity, or situation you may be too close to see clearly.
Every Tuesday at 1:00 p.m. EDT, we place one issue on THE BRIDGE for 30 focused minutes.
Bring what happened.
Discover what you may not be seeing.
Then decide what your next meeting, opportunity, or move could look like.
One unaligned meeting does not define the next one.

There’s a BRIDGE for that!
