When opportunity knocks, throw the door wide open, ask what took it so darned long, and then offer it a cup of tea. Get comfortable with where you're going by cutting to the chase. Ask only for the facts. That way, you won't get distracted by superfluous information. Blast ahead and get anything unpleasant out of the way. You're a real contender, fighting all the negative vibes that could ruin a lesser day. Boredom and hypocrisy have no chance while you're in the room!
