Why Opportunity Doesn’t Strike Twice…
January 6th, 2007 | Published in Uncategorized | 1 Comment
There are people who get it — and then there are people who don’t. In life, if you want to make a difference — a real impact — you have to Seize the Day (Carpe Diem and all that Jazz).
If you want to get to know someone — strike up a conversation. If you need someone’s help — ASK. If you want more money, a better working environment, a better love life, or more friends — it’s up to you to get them. In the last few days — I have been feeling annoyed with people who don’t follow through on their commitments — and who expect the rest of the world to carry them.
When an opportunity presents itself — you must take immediate action. If you don’t — then you have no one to blame but yourself.
And — the great thing about seizing an opportunity — is that — by the mere fact of taking action, you are opening yourself up to countless future opportunities.
