Opportunities. The word alone sparks visions of golden chances, once-in-a-lifetime moments, or worse regrets over what could have been. But here’s the truth: opportunities are not rare. They’re everywhere. Waiting. Staring right at you.
The world whispers a secret: opportunities don’t vanish. They linger. They outlive us. Long before the Wright brothers took flight, the opportunity to invent the plane existed—untouched. Before Henry Ford revolutionized mobility, the car was an idea waiting to be claimed. The real question isn’t where opportunities are it’s why haven’t you seized yours yet?
We’ve been fed a lie: Opportunity knocks once. Its False. Opportunities don’t come and go, we do. The dead never saw the iPhone, but the opportunity to create it existed long before Steve Jobs. The difference? Knowledge. Readiness. Preparation.
Opportunities aren’t just "there." They come with price tags and name tags , reserved for those who’ve paid the price. Think of a scholarship for engineering students. If you study medicine, that door stays shut. Not because you’re unworthy, but because preparation meets opportunity only when alignment happens.
The Olympics reward more than talent they reward strategy. The race isn’t always to the swiftest, but to those who master their moment. Four years of sweat, failure, and relentless practice culminate in seconds of glory.
Entrepreneurs, listen closely: Your losses today? They’re tuition for tomorrow’s triumph. Every failure sharpens you for the opportunity you can’t yet see.
The Action Plan: Stop Waiting. Start Preparing.
- Audit Your Readiness – What skills must you hone? What knowledge are you lacking?
- Position Yourself – Are you in the right field, network, or mindset to recognize your opportunity?
- Fail Forward – Embrace the stumbles. They’re proof you’re in the game.
Now here is the clarion call, Your Opportunity Is Here. Will You Take It?
You don’t need to search far. The opportunities meant for you are already within reach if you’ve done the work. Stop waiting for "luck." Start building your readiness.
The plane, the car, the iPhone they weren’t miracles. They were seized opportunities. **What’s yours?, What's mine".
