windows of opportunity

I havent heard that expression in a long time..."move fast or we will lose the window". Window of opportunity. I always wanted to be one of those people that didn't have to wait for windows...or would get kicked out through the front door and climb through the window no matter what. I act too slow and think too long. And then I think BACKwards about all the theoretical windows that really did close.

I sat at my Ikea table today (which wasnt put together by a Viking, no, rather, I did it!) and Sosh and I ran through a few of those A and B scenarios...if you did this instead of that, what would your end result be?

Even more relavant...if you look to the future and try to determine the consequences of your choices...well...sometimes picking an option doesnt even get anywhere near where you thought you would be. .

Or instead, what if I am done making decisions for a while?...What if I simply sit back and see which doors open for me. Ok, so the windows are all staying open and Im going to sit and enjoy the breeze and if a door opens...we'll take it from there.
