Opportunity a knockin..

     Opportunity knocks every so often often disguised as work.  People let these chances to change their lives pass them by because they are busy treating life as a spectator sport.  We get so wrapped up in what other people are or are not doing we fail to take inventory of ourselves.  When we miss the boat and are left standing on the shore of our lives wondering what happened,  everyone else is enjoying their cruise into their future.

     The choice is ours for the choosing,  rather than being skeptical or cynical when a new opportunity is posed.  If we take a moment to review with an open mind, we too might find a new path.  Many are accustomed to working their job (just over broke) that the idea of something else taking their time is ridiculous.  Yet when it comes to their payday they are the first to complain when there is more month than money left over.  That being said, when someone approaches with a new way to add to the bottom line, I don't know about you but I am at least willing to listen.

     As long as the opportunity passes the acidity test, and does appear to be a shady scheme, give it the old sniff test as it could be your vehicle to your dreams.  Anyone that has worked for a company knows deep down in the corporate world all the work you do fills someone else's pockets more than yours.   What a novel idea to build a company you can call your own, where you are your own boss.  Instead of being stuck working with people you just don't care for, you have the opportunity to build your own dream team.  You get to work with like minded teammates that genuinely want you to succeed.   If you want it, there are mentors that will show you the ropes to the ladder of your success.  All for the cost of a small enrollment you can empower yourself and others to make dreams a reality rather than a fantasy.

     So the next time your co-worker, friend, family member or complete stranger asks your permission to share an opportunity that has changed their life.  Before slamming the door in their face, hang up the phone or reflexively tell them 'no'.  Hear them out, go to their meeting,  attend their webinar or take the call, it could be the best decision you make today.
