Taking Chances

Can you possible plan ahead too far?

I’ve recently noticed my job as a Planning Editor is slowly spilling over to my personal life. What people don’t realize is, when you spend countless hours planning ahead, you hardly ever just let things happen, and live in the now. I’ve been the laughing stalk of the newsroom since Monday at 10:05am. Why you may ask, because I just bought concert tickets for get this….JANUARY 20, 2009, YES 2009.

The biggest-selling female artist of ALL time will be in town on that night, and I can hardly wait! On December 15th, 2007 Celine Dion will take her final bow in Las Vegas and end her record breaking show A NEW DAY. A few months later she will begin her Taking Chances World Tour with stops in Africa, Asia, and Canada and of course North America. I had the pleasure of seeing her show in Las Vegas a few years back and it was worth every penny.

Now the question to you is, is there any artist you would buy a ticket for the moment it comes out, even if it’s over a year away? Please tell me I’m not the only one.

Although I don’t know what my future holds, or where this life may take me, I do know where I hope to be on January 20, 2009. Enjoying the amazing sounds of Celine Dion in section 1 on the main floor, being thankful I planned ahead!

Best,
