The Opportunity You Have

Don The Idea Guy August 29, 2020

Most people have an opportunity in mind that they keep their radar tuned for in case it presents itself. A specific set of circumstances that they are hoping to identify and act upon. To me that seems like playing the lottery; you buy a ticket and you hope a specific series of numbers will appear, and only then will you be successful.

Capitalize on the opportunity you have instead of the opportunity you want

Instead of waiting for the perfect set of circumstances to jump up and down in front of your face waving its arms in the air and shouting “pick me! pick me!” — what if you instead took advantage of the resources and assets to which you have access right now?

Do something today with what you have at-hand rather than hoping and wishing for your guaranteed-can’t-fail-dream scenario (which has less of a chance to occur than those winning lottery numbers we talked about earlier).

More Fuel For The Tank

Many people get upset when they realize they’ve been heading down the wrong road for a while and have lost time  and expended energy on something that didn’t pan out. Even more so when they realize they might have to retrace their steps in order to find their way back to the point they diverged […]

Shake Things Up

The new year is nearly upon us and I call upon you to take up the challenge to shake things up like snow globe in the twelve months to follow. It’s only fair, right? This past year has shaken-up (or just plain shaken) many of the things we took for granted — being able to […]
