Monday Morning Quarterbacks

Do you know what an opportunity looks like? Many people are able to recognize an opportunity after it’s already passed them by …but seeing opportunities coming, that a different matter and WINNERS have this ability. When Columbus came back from his journeys and proved that the world was indeed round and not flat, everyone had something to say about how they would have done it differently. His answer was simply, where were you when I needed financial support and people to help me sail the open seas? Anyone can be a Monday morning quarterback; it takes the rare person to be Columbus, Rosa Parks, Bill Gates, Barack Obama, Hilliary Clinton or a DREAM MAKER!

Opportunities are seldom labeled. That’s why you have to learn what they look like and how to seize them. The best people make it their responsibility to go out and find them. Walter Chrysler said, “The reason so many people never get anywhere in life is because when opportunity knocks, they are out in the backyard looking for four-leaf clovers”.

Let’s all be on the porch and meet Opportunity Before It Knocks! Have a GREAT DAY finding opportunities!
