T: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.
R:That security guard was a little bit handsy.
T:That's funny. She barely touched me. Uh, Gate 23. Come on. If we miss this flight, I will never forgive myself.
T: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.
T:Hi, wait, two more.
H:Sorry, you're too late, I already shut the doors.
T:Well, I'm sure if we pull real hard we can open them.
H:Hmm, I wish it worked like that, but see, once I close those doors, that's it. Nobody else is allowed down that jetway.
