“To succeed, jump as quickly at opportunities as you do at conclusions.”
Benjamin Franklin
Believe it or not, everyday we are presented with opportunities. Sometimes we choose to take advantage of them, and many times, we choose not to say yes to them…for a variety of reasons. “I don’t have the time”, “I don’t have the money”, “I don’t think it would ever work” and on and on.
This week, I was at a networking meeting with several other entrepreneurs and we were brainstorming about how each of us might increase our business in 2012. It was amazing thateach and every one of us had at least three current, real-live opportunities right before us that we were not taking advantage of. Several of the entrepreneurs didn’t even see the opportunity until it was pointed out by someone else!
So I challenge you:
What are the top 3 excuses you use to not say YES to the opportunities that show up in your life every day?
So, be honest with yourself. How badly do you want it? Isn’t it time to ditch the excuses and TAKE ACTION? What are the 3 OPPORTUNITIES that are under your nose that are waiting for you to take action on?
I challenge you to toss your excuses aside, and go for it-figure out how to make them happen for yourself or your business-RIGHT NOW!!
“We often miss opportunity because it’s dressed in overalls and looks like work”
Thomas Edison
