TAKEAWAYS:
“The secret is to be ready when your opportunity comes.” – Benjamin Disraeli
Three observations as it relates to opportunities:
Most everyone sees them once they’ve passed by – Hindsight or watching the film of yesterday
Many don’t have a picture of it – unaware (“Your big opportunity may be where you are now.” – Napolean Hill)
The wrong picture – This is a paradigms problem, what’s in your head and/or your current POV
HOW CAN I HELP PEOPLE DO THE FOLLOWING?:
Know there are OPPORTUNITIES out there and all around! This is all about understanding.
You can’t have what you don’t know exists and have access to it
You cannot teach what you do not know
You can’t learn if you cannot be taught
Attracting the right kind of opportunity – This is all about your passion and alignment with it. YOUR ‘WHY!’
There’s always some assembly required! – Your investment into your growth + development
Make your plans (blueprints)
Putting the pieces together
Possess the willingness to re-draw or go back to the drawing board
Your tools – skills, talents, abilities, relationships, intangibles, and your ability to be self-aware, self-manage, Social-awareness, and relationship management (Emotional Intelligence)
A willingness to discard the unnecessary
Every day prior is the Learning + Training ground for the opportunity to be seen, received, harvested and cultivated.
Here’s another way to look at it: opportunity > possibility > probability > actuality > factuality > reality (manifestation or physical equivalent)
