Kids, never underestimate the power of destiny.
Because when you least expect it,
the littlest thing can cause a ripple effect that changes your life.
Take for instance my trip to Chicago.
That security guard was a little bit handsy.
That's funny.
She barely touched me.
Uh, Gate 23. Come on.
If we miss this flight,
I will never forgive myself.
Why was this flight so important?
Let's back up a few months to the fall of 2006.
I had just sold my first building design and become the youngest project manager
in my firm's history.
Suddenly I was being headhunted.
One firm was even considering me to run their entire New York office.
They were flying me in for a final interview at their corporate headquarters in Chicago.
It was the opportunity of a lifetime.
It was my destiny.
There was just one problem.
Hi, wait, two more.
Sorry, you're too late,
I already shut the doors.
Well, I'm sure if we pull real hard we can open them.
Hmm, I wish it worked like that, but see, once I close those doors,
that's it.
Nobody else is allowed down that jet-way.
孩子,千万不要低估命运的力量,
因为只要你对命运还有期待,
哪怕微不足道的事情也能给你生活带来意想不到的变化。
就像我当年去芝加哥。。。
那个保安有点咸猪手。
搞笑,她只是碰了下我。
23号登机口,快点。
如果我们错过了这趟班机,我永远不会原谅自己的。
这趟班机为什么如此重要?
让我们回到几个月前,那是06年秋天,我刚刚卖掉第一份建筑设计图纸,并且成为了我们公司历史上最年轻的经理。
瞬时,我成为众猎头公司的目标,一家公司甚至考虑让我管理他们纽约办事处。他们安排我参加最后一道面试,在他们的芝加哥总部。
这是一生中的少有的机会,这会决定我的命运,但是有一个问题。
等等,还有两个人。
对不起,你们迟到太久了,我已经关上登机门了。
能不能通融通融。
我也希望你们能进去,门一旦关上 就没有办法能让每人能够在下到登机舱。
