This episode delves into the diverse encounters that shape our lives and perspectives. From memorable sayings like "If it's not in writing, it didn't happen" to the lessons learned from both unpleasant and delightful experiences, we explore how every person we meet, regardless of their background or beliefs, has the potential to leave a lasting impact.
Listen in as I recount various interactions—from the grumpy critic at a regional real estate meeting to former Prime Minister Bob Hawke's down-to-earth charm. Each story highlights the contrast between personalities and the valuable lessons they impart.
We'll also share insights about the challenges of navigating different social environments, including a humorous encounter with a restaurant owner and the eye-opening experience of sponsoring a major sporting event alongside a world-famous golfer.
