Make Your Opportunities

Sometimes we can't wait for opportunity to knock on our door. We have to take the bull by the horns and make things happen for us. We have to be proactive. It could mean increasing your networking events, taking classes, improving your website, or any number of things.

Make Your Opportunities

“Don’t wait for extraordinary opportunities. Seize

common occasions and make them great.”

Orison Swett Marden 1850 – 1924, American Inspirational

Author

As I see it . . . . . . .

 

Make your opportunities

 

Those who wait for opportunity . . . . will have a very long wait.

 

For those who make their opportunities . . . . will become the achievers.

 

Opportunities are all around you . . . . But many will be missed because they are dressed in work clothes and will require hard work to maximize what you see into the opportunity.

 

Many of your greatest opportunities will start out as a thought . . . . or a common occurrence that needs attention to see the possible and to turn it into an opportunity.

 

Keep your eyes open . . . . and you will see the opportunities.

 

Keep your mind open . . . . and you will see the possibilities in the opportunity.

 

Be willing to make the effort . . . . to develop the opportunity.

 

When it comes right down to it . . . . you make your opportunities . . . . from those opportunities come the breakthroughs in your life.

Yet another of Lou Ludwig's wonderful posts, Kathy.  Has anyone found out what happened to him?  He posted a comment to my blog on the evening of December the 12th, and then posted to his own blog the next day before going off line.  His death was on the 19th.

I struggle with motivation from time to time. I have read Lou's posts here on AR for many years now and they can certainly help in that department.
