A few weeks ago I wrote about casting your own life and auditioning people for it. After I published it I received a message from my magician friend Basil. He mentioned that we are always trying to be cast ourselves in our dream role and that we never know which small part we are given by someone else might take us to our next level.
I loved his thinking here. Not only are we auditioning other people they are auditioning us. We want to play a role in their life because we want them to play one in ours.
Next time you run into a stranger treat them with dignity and respect. Whether it is a customer in your business or someone you are running into randomly during the day, you never know what that person may hold for you or how much power and help you can give to them.
Several years ago I was selling a camera to a gentleman. I took time with him and answered his questions. I made sure he had all the information he needed to make a good decision. Immediately after finishing the man hands me his business card and tells me if I was ever looking for a job to give him a call. While I never took him up on that offer what if that card would have opened to doors to one of my dreams?
