Opportunity

When opportunity knocks it’s easy to give it a try. But, what if opportunity isn’t knocking? You keep waiting for it to happen. Sometimes we ask the Universe for a sign or an opportunity, but we don’t see it, hear it or feel it.

What if your opportunity comes from you creating it? You may or may not have heard of the term carpe diem. It’s a Latin phrase that means seize the day. The saying is used to urge someone to make the most of the present time and give little thought to the future.  

For a moment, be in the present and create your own opportunity and enhance the opportunity. When you move the opportunity forward you are increasing the probability of the opportunity to come to fruition. 

But how do you do this? How do you create your own opportunity? You may need to take a step back, be in the moment and analyze where you are now and where you want to be. 

If you know what steps you need to take, to be where you want to be, see the opportunity. Once you can identify the opportunity you can work your way to it. But, an opportunity is just that if you don’t take steps to making it happen. If you only look at the opportunity from afar, it may turn into a missed opportunity. The only way opportunities will work in your favor is if you have the drive to make them happen. Drive may just be your opportunity. If you have the will to make it happen, it’s an opportunity that won’t have the chance to slip away.

Do the work, see the opportunity, follow through and be come the best you know how.
