The Taxi Cab Theory and Change

“Men are like cabs. When they’re available, their light goes on. They awake one day and decide they’re ready to settle down, have babies, whatever, and they turn their light on. Next woman they pick up, boom! That’s the one they’ll marry.”

-Miranda Hobbs, Sex in the City, Season 3, Episode 8: “The Big Time”

The idea is that some people are like taxi cabs: their light isn't on until they're ready to commit. Until then, no matter how many passengers wave them down, they're just not available. While marriage readiness isn't that simple, timing and readiness are crucial.

Are you ready for a change? In the back of your mind, you might be unhappy with the work team you're on and searching for something more. Good teams, like good relationships, don't just happen—they need the right timing, readiness, and sometimes a bit of help to turn the light on.

This concept applies to more than just romantic relationships; it's relevant to professional and personal growth too. If you're feeling unfulfilled with your current work team, it might be time for a change.
