Creating Opportunities

If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door. ~Milton Berle

Now, its easy to say you just need to create your own opportunities, simple as that, just get out there and do your thing; But what most people fail to mention is that it is not that easy. There are fears, barriers, thinking patterns that stop us from 'going out there to create opportunities'.

It is not easy to overcome self-doubt or to get out of your comfort zone, but here’s the thing: it is worth every little effort! Because out of the comfort zone is where the magic will happen.

Opportunities are missed by most people because they don’t realize they’ve encountered such- often masked in the cloth of issues and excuses. There will always be opportunities for those who recognize and pursue them.

Right now take a mental note of all the excuses you have on something you are working on; the difficulties you are facing and imagine seeing them as opportunities- Are you the youngest in your team and feel no one respects your ideas? Have you thought about using your age as an asset instead? You are probably more exposed, trendy and social media savvy and if understood, these can be used as a source of relevance in what you do.
