008 – Adversity


I have a thing for little trees – who, not knowing any better (or maybe because they do know better) manage to find a tiny toehold in an otherwise inhospitable environment and then start to grow. I’m never sure whether this kind of environment is a good thing or a bad thing – sure the availability of water might be a problem, but there’s not much competition and sometimes I imagine I can hear this feisty little plant laughing and saying, “I have the whole place to myself, I can’t believe my luck, this is going to be a great day!”

I believe I might’ve had a lucky escape today. I don’t know if you’ve ever been part way through something and you begin to get a feeling like something isn’t quite right, and after a while the feeling is not only still there, it’s stronger than before. This was one of these situations. My advice, born of experience, is go with your instincts. Almost always you find down the line your instincts were right. And then you can say to yourself, “I can’t believe my luck, this is going to be a great day!”

Manifesto
