I never planned to become Cosmo's editor-in-chief. That Sunday afternoon, while baking a blueberry pie in Pennsylvania, my boss called asking me to drive into the city immediately. Running Redbook at the time, I worried I was being reassigned to something awful. Instead, she offered me the editorship of Cosmopolitan-completely dumbfounding me. This moment perfectly illustrated how life's biggest opportunities often arrive dressed in uncertainty. Most of us believe we need a detailed roadmap to find our calling, but rigid planning can actually thwart success. While having general life goals matters, being locked into a specific five-year plan might cause you to miss unexpected opportunities right in front of you. Rather than overthinking your path through endless analysis, try "bumping into it" through new experiences. My fashion director discovered her calling accidentally while watching a fashion shoot in Egypt-she had originally trained as an accountant but took a chance that changed her entire career trajectory. Keep a list of intriguing possibilities rather than a fixed plan, and never immediately reject an opportunity without at least 24 hours of consideration. When facing a new possibility, ask yourself: "Despite any anxiety it causes, might my life become more interesting if I said yes?"
