Hi May,

Your article woke me up from nodding in front of my laptop. I had a 3-hour sleep and behind on my project. Somehow when I was researching on how to do my project I found one of your articles.

This is a beautiful sentiment — What goes around comes around. This also speaks to another good skill to develop — recognizing that you’re deserving of the positive outcomes you encounter.

Many times I’ve had something good just pop up out of nowhere and I’ve avoided it, thinking it couldn’t possibly be for me. I’ve learned…

And, like you, I had conversations about things like concrete (!)…

Similar experience. Was flying to Brussels from SanFrancisco when disturbed from sleeping by chief Steward. Being a choleric my first reaction was to be annoyed but soon realized he was warning me of turbulence.

We started to talk. Looking at my lapel where I had a gold ITT badge he said you are obviously an ITT executive…

Great advice. Eye contact, smile etc. Will send copy to son. Highest accolade!

What grabbed me were the five regrets when dying. Will read book. Reminded me when I went to a conference honoring a close friend. Don’t usually like large conferences when I am not the person of interest giving a speech.
