Opportunity

All of us are born with different talents and abilities. What we do with what we are given is entirely up to us. I believe that success in life is a choice. I’ve heard far too many people say that

successful people are just simply lucky.

Sure, there may be some luck involved. For me, I have found that the harder I work, the luckier I become. Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.The key is to be prepared when a great opportunity comes your way. A lack of preparation can cause you to either not recognize the opportunity, waste the opportunity, or refuse the opportunity all together.

Successful people that have made it big recognized an opportunity for which they prepared themselves, and made the very best of it. All of them will tell you that it took dedication, commitment and hard work.
Unfortunately, far too many people waste opportunities in life by refusing to put 100% into it. They may start out with their goals and work hard in the beginning and when they don’t achieve instant success, they let up on the gas. This is what we call wasting the opportunity. They procrastinate. They allow laziness to creep in. They don’t make a commitment.
When an amazing opportunity comes along, be prepared to take advantage of it. Acquire as much knowledge as you possibly can and make a 100% commitment to work hard at it.

Have faith that working as hard as you can and making that commitment will pay off in the long run.
It is very important to set specific goals so you know exactly what you want out of life. This way, when an opportunity comes your way, you can recognize that this opportunity is a vehicle that will help you achieve success. Having daily goals challenges you to go after your dreams.

When you have an incredible opportunity, it’s important to develop a routine and stick to it. Make a commitment to become organized. It all starts off by waking up early and having a good positive morning routine. Starting the day off right sets you up for success throughout the day. Having a routine and success plan will help you succeed in what matters.
Make sure you make every second count. Time is your capital, do not waste it. Start putting more value on your time.

This will allow you to be more productive accomplishing the things that are important to you. Do not let anyone tell you that there are no opportunities anymore. Do not listen to naysayers. We’ve all been blessed with great opportunities to have success. Understand that it’s going to take a true commitment and a lot of effort. Keep positive and no matter what, keep marching forward. Success is right around the corner.
Take advantage of your incredible opportunities.

Many years ago, one of my mentors said to me, “Opportunity is knocking. Don’t be caught in the backyard looking for four leaf clovers!”

You’ve been blessed! This is your time to go out and make it happen. Take advantage of your opportunity!
