I've heard this phrase quite a few times. How do you feel about it?

I noticed this a lot more since I learned to code😅 when there’s an error/bug (or a door closes), there’s always a workaround (another door opens)

@claudiu_cogalniceanu oh wow ahahah how long have you been coding for? you're so optimistic about this hahahahahahahahhaa oh mate thanks for making me belly-laugh, I needed that /positive /light-hearted

@theological haha, thanks. I started learning to code in March this year, so not that long ago. I banged my head against the wall so many times until I found the open door😅

@claudiu_cogalniceanu oooh so for a bit then! Yeah, I've been in coding for quite a while obviously ahaha (obviously cause I'm a Senior Dev and not a Junior) and honestly at this point I just sometimes starte at my computer like..."Et tu, Brute" :D esp when it doesn't run code correctly and then I literally change NOTHING just cry into my salad for half an hour, then press run and it magically just starts working. I swear it just loves to see me suffer

sometimes, but I still think that god favors those who are prepared and another door will open most likely because of your previous efforts.

I feel like multiple doors are always open for us, regardless of whether one closes are not. It FEELS like another one is opening because we actively look for other doors when one that we were focusing on closes.

Yes, I completely agree with this statement. Sometimes we become so obsessed with the problem that we are unable to see the door that has opened.

It means you've passed a checkpoint and can't go back to the previous location to get whatever left there. Jokes aside, I think it's about playing with the hand you have now. No need to think about what's left behind that closed door, think about what's waiting for you behind the open door.

@burmistrov yeah ahaha the door closes, you can't go back and then the combat music starts playing...

Yes, and the sooner you close one door, the sooner another one opens - that's why I no longer delay decision-making.
Xavier JJ
Yes this is absolutely true! This is very similar to the saying that there always two sides to every coin :)
Nigel Engel
That's life, when a door closes, its a good thing!

Sometimes one door closes and the whole building collapses before you can get to the other door. It's nice to think positively, but .........

Indeed, opportunities often follow transitions.
I believe it's true, you just have to be open-minded and reflective about every experience you go through:)

I agree, but it's important to be ready to knock if the door doesn't open.
Rohit Joshi
Absolutely, when one door closes, another opens. just trust the process, work hard, and better things will come your way.
Drew "Sales Playbook Builder" Williams
Yes, I agree. There's opportunity around every corner, we just have to keep our eyes open and remain optimistic!
Ali Jan
Yes, I completely agree with this statement.

Defiantly, when one door closes, another opens. Patience is key, it allows us to see the new opportunities that come our way.
