I GIVE THANKS FOR OPPORTUNITIES
All of us will have our fair share of opportunities along
the way; the question is whether we recognise them. Opportunity really does
come knocking on our door from time to time and so often we are faced with a choice,
the outcome being determined by our personalities even more than circumstance
in many cases.
If you know what you want in life you are in a good position
to create opportunities. Once you have a goal you can devise a plan and
opportunities can be cleverly orchestrated via a series of strategic moves.
Making sure you are in the right place at the right time to meet people you
wish to associate with, finding people who have the expertise to help you and
applying creative thinking to situations will carry you to new places you may
not even have dreamed of.
Some people have really excelled at moving out of situations
that keep many people imprisoned. There are different triggers that help people
aspire to greater heights. The first is an inbuilt need to elevate themselves
to a greater level because they want more from their lives, especially when
they have children. We see this constantly in TV talent shows- the instant
answer to all your problems if you have a voice or skill! One thing is for
sure, you need a dream and without a dream you will find it hard to develop the
impetus to improve.
Opportunities can apply to life in quite different ways.
Sometimes life has been going well and something comes along to spoil it
ruining friendships, partnerships and more. In these situations the opportunity
we require is the chance to forgive and make amends. Being given a second
chance at anything in life should be viewed as a privilege and something we can
give thanks for. A second chance can often be used as an opportunity to improve
upon our original performance. We can give ourselves extra opportunities to
shine when we truly apply ourselves to our work in order to produce our best.
Whether you are creating a new design for a Birthday cake, making a record or
writing a book you hone your own craft and the way you market helps determine
success.
To maximize your opportunities you need to embrace them and
pay attention to detail. Whether it means a severe dose of hard work or paying
greater attention to the people in your life, the more you appreciate
opportunities and use them to benefit your life, the better.
Opportunity knocks!- Remember to open the door each time.
