Two weeks ago, I woke up full of energy and just knew that something new was in the wind. My first thought was to get out of the house to work that day. So I followed my instincts and got dressed. Something kept whispering, "Hurry... hurry, but you have to look great too." My instincts are rarely wrong so I followed them. I was finally ready and looked in the mirror satisfied that I would go through my day and honor a famous redhead that had come before me.
I grabbed my computer and out the door I went with a confident swagger in my stride. A couple of minutes later, I'm standing in line at one of my favorite coffee spots and am face to face with one of the most handsome men I've met in a long time. Now, I have to tell you that I'm rockin' the energy. I noticed that he had a really nice drawing on his name tag and since I like to sketch, I mentioned it and asked if he drew it. "No," he said, "I can't draw stick figures." With what I hoped was my most brilliant smile I countered with, "Y'know, I'm a life coach and I can give you 1500 reasons why you "CAN" if you want." He perked up when I said life coach and wanted to know what it was. Well long story short. I told him that if he got a break, I would be in the store for a while working and would be happy to tell him what I do.
Sure enough, he took a break and came to talk to me about it. He was genuinely interested in my services and I felt confident as I explained what a coach could do for him. I am sitting there thinking to myself that every famous redhead is surely applauding how I'm living out load. Little did I know that the redhead I was honoring was Lucille Ball!!! Hours later, I'm at home and look in the bathroom mirror and noticed that I've got my bright red shirt on INSIDE OUT!!! No kidding!!!!
Here's the rest of the story...
This hot guy did not hire me as a coach, but he has since been added to my list of favorite people and he doesn't seem to hold it against me that I'm a dork.
How do you honor the redhead in you????
