Opportunities

What is an opportunity? (Encarta)
•An advantageous circumstance
•A chance for progress, advancement or improvement

Why seek opportunities?
We often spend a great deal of a time drifting along, oblivious prospects to have a happier life, a healthier life, yes even a wealthier life. We spend our much of our time worrying about being sick, unemployed, bored or unsuccessful in love and life rather than investing our time to identify the opportunities that surround us.

How can we identify Opportunities?
Create a process! First, consider the possibility that opportunities are available everywhere, so, be open! Secondly, use the opportunity seeking to help you solve a problem that you have. Not enough money, too much weight, too little time, no relationship. Third, set a goal for your self to look for the right person, the right tool, the right event to help you solve your problem. Finally, create a mini action plan so that you start focusing on being aware when an opportunity presents itself.

When we take advantage of situations, networking events, family outings, social networks, clubs or professional organizations that can provide us with an idea, a solution, support, a new contact, you name it opportunities abound. The chances are virtually limitless. Or you can find opportunities to “worry.” It’s up to you.


What opportunities can you identify for yourself today?
