Donāt Ignore the Small Things!
Sometimes we spend so much time waiting for a big opportunity that we completely overlook the small moments trying to lead us there.
Years ago, I was just going through another normal day when I noticed something simpleāa small sticker on the back of a car.
It read:
Manning, South Carolina.
Most people wouldāve looked at it for a second and forgotten about it.
I couldnāt.
In an instant, I was transported back to being a little kid spending my summers in my grandmotherās bakery. I could picture the building, remember the smells, the people, and the feeling of watching something special being built by our family.
That one little sticker made me remember a dream I didnāt even realize I had forgotten.
I couldnāt stop thinking about it.
That night I started researching.
Then I kept researching.
Eventually I bought a tent.
The tent became a food truck.
The food truck became a restaurant.
And today, weāre building something much bigger than waffles.
Weāre building a place where families make memories together.
Looking back, itās amazing to think that none of this may have happened if I hadnāt noticed one tiny sticker on the back of someoneās car.
Life has a funny way of speaking to us.
Sometimes it isnāt through a huge breakthrough.
Sometimes it isnāt through a life-changing conversation.
Sometimes itās a song.
A photo.
A smell.
A phone call.
A memory.
Or a little sticker on the back of a car.
The problem is that weāre often moving so fast that we miss what those moments are trying to tell us.
So hereās my encouragement this week:
Pay attention.
Donāt overlook the little things.
That random conversation may become your next business.
That book someone recommends may change your mindset.
That opportunity that seems too small may open a door you never imagined.
Purpose doesnāt always arrive with fireworks.
Sometimes it whispers.
Iām thankful I listened.
Because one small reminder didnāt just bring back a memory.
It changed my life.
And maybe today, thereās something small in your life trying to change yours.
