I’m a fan of the expression that when one door closes another opens.
But it misses a dose of reality in between it.
Most doors of opportunity are locked.
Which implies you need a key.
And the key to a new door is shaped with how you close the other.
How an owner closes their brewery is indicative of the opportunity to follow.
A friend of mine recently sunset his monthly marketing educational networking series (after 6 years) and it couldn’t have been done in a more classy and heartfelt way. He has a well-fashioned key for the next endeavor.
How we react to a door closing on us is no different than one we close ourselves, either.
The more intentional you can be about the closing of a door, the better the key you’re branding for the next door.
All to say… the door that opens? That’s all on us.
