One morning recently at the beach we were reminded that in life as in business one needs to be open to opportunities.
As we walked onto the beach we saw the at the waters edge fisherman’s boats and trucks. One of the trucks had other walkers gathering around. As we got closer we realized they were buying fish fresh from the sea, the first time we have seen this happen in 5 years.
The still live fish were being offered for a ridiculously small sum of $1 a fish. All we needed was a bag and $1 for a fresh fish breakfast!
One bag less but enterprising woman with her newspaper money spread her jacket on the sand in lieu of a bag.
We don’t take money to the beach and missed the opportunity for fresh fish for breakfast.
Now days we keep spare money and bags in the car. Next time the fisherman appear we will be ready.
