In the flow

I have been experimenting with what I call being in sync or in the flow. I had been working for weeks to get the mayor of the city to visit the toastmaster club I belong to for our twentieth year celebration to no avail. One day while not even thinking about this a thought popped into my head to make a personal in person visit to the mayor's office. I did. I spoke to the young woman who was less than helpful on the phone. She had done a total 180. She tried to be as accommodating as possible. I felt great leaving the office. However, a few days later when I telephoned her a few days later I got that all too familiar cold, not helpful reception. I stayed cordial with her and told her irregardless of the proclamation that I was trying to get she was invited to our special celebration. She hung up with no promises and I thought that I did not attain my goal. Monday morning came quickly and it was time for our celebration. While setting up the room someone called my name. I did not recognise him. He introduced himself and he was the mayor and he had come to deliver the proclamation himself. Needless to say I was very pleased especially since I am always telling people to make thingd happen. The moral of the story here is that things always work out if you take the right action at the right time. I acted immediatly when the idea hit me to make an in person visit and the result was a resounding success. Make it happen in your own lives by acting now.
