Sometimes they are not ready.
Just not ready … yet.
They may not be up for it now.
Though they are definitely up for it … later.
Sometimes the timing is just off.
There will be a time when everything … aligns.
And when both they and you are ready.
That’s where the magic happens.

There are times when you get (need?) to slow down.
To appreciate the little things.
A great night’s sleep.
Dinner with the family.
Having a long conversation with a friend.
The dog playing with a new toy.
A sunrise … a sunset (you get to choose).
Your favourite drink (again … you get to choose).
Laughing out loud.
A Sunday drive … on any day.
Reading … anything.
Looking across water (river, lake, ocean).
Going for a walk.
A hug.
Take some time to savour.
Appreciate the little things.

We have networks and neurons.
We have technology and teams.
We can brainstorm and build.
We can share our art.
We can do projects.
We can connect.
Collaborate.
We can do business virtually anywhere.
Virtually.
Anywhere.
