Im so glad I didnt do it
I was thinking of skipping the welcome dinner for the group that
was there to get certified as a StoryBrand Guide a few years ago
And I had every reason to...
I was tired from the 5am start time
My Airbnb booking had somehow disappeared
So when I landed in Nashville I had no place to go
Luckily there was ONE Airbnb next to the event available
And it turned out to be better than the one I had booked two
weeks prior
So I wanted to sleep and get ready for the busy upcoming week
Seemed comfy and reasonable
But we all know what happens when we choose comfy and reasonable
So I got myself together last minute for the dinner
I was the last one to arrive
I had to sit in the corner of the table where 50 other marketers
from all over the world were all here for one mission
To master the StoryBrand Framework created by Donald Miller to help our clients clarify their message, increase their revenue AND scale our own businesses
The dinner starts and Donald is there to welcome us and kick it off
Once he finishes his speech, were ready for dinner and to start mingling with the two people next to us
The seat next to me happens to be the only one empty
And closest to Don
So he sits down, introduces himself and we just talk for a full hour and have dinner
What are the chances that the only seat left in the room is next to me and he happens to sit there
Eating mac and cheese, we connect on all the levels- biz, copy, life, meat, no meat, Chicago, my mastermind, his roots, my story
So fun!
The lesson hereget yourself out of your comfy pajamas, and get your butt at those dinners, conferences or networking events you might dread...
You never know who youll have a chance to talk to for a full hour
If you wanna be surprised by the universe, show the F up
