Many stand outside life.
Waiting.
Wondering.
Hesitating.
The surprising part?
The door was never locked.
There is something curious about human beings.
We often stand before opportunities as if they require permission.
Permission to begin.
Permission to grow.
Permission to change.
Permission to become.
Yet many of life’s greatest doors have never been locked.
THE WAITING ROOM
Some wait for confidence.
Some wait for certainty.
Some wait for approval.
Some wait for guarantees.
Many wait for a sign.
Meanwhile life waits for participation.
WORTHY NOTE
Waiting is often fear wearing a watch.
THE DOOR
Most opportunities do not swing open dramatically.
Most are opened quietly.
One decision.
One phone call.
One introduction.
One conversation.
One act of courage.
WHAT STOPS US?
Fear.
Doubt.
Old disappointments.
Failed attempts.
The opinions of others.
The usual suspects.
PUT LEGS ON IT
You cannot steer a parked car.
You cannot navigate a docked ship.
You cannot discover what waits beyond a doorway while refusing to touch the handle.
LIFE’S SECRET
Life tends to reveal itself to participants.
Not spectators.
The road appears beneath moving feet.
RICHIE’S OBSERVATION
Many people pray for open doors.
Then spend years studying the hinges.
THE INVITATION
The next chapter is not hidden.
It is waiting.
The next opportunity is not missing.
It is waiting.
The next step is not impossible.
It is waiting.
FINAL THOUGHT
Perhaps the question is not:
“Will life open the door?”
Perhaps the question is:
“Will you?”
— Richie
