3 Things You NEED To Do To Make Sure You Are Ready For Your Big Chance!

Three Things You NEED To Do To Make Sure You Are Ready For Your Big Chance!

Can I share a piece of information with you that could change your life? There are very few people in life who lack opportunities.

REAL TALK!

Most people have more opportunities than they know what to do with, they either don’t recognize them, or they aren’t prepared to take them when they come!

Over the past 4 years, I have been more productive than I have been in years. Before my life was in a fog, but now each year things seem to get better. Life, challenges, struggles, fear and lack of preparation was a huge challenge for me. I often wondered when it would be my turn, and when that big door or opportunity was going to open for me. I’m imaging that some of you might be feeling that same way right now. You know that you are gifted and talented, and you know that you are ready, but something is just not clicking. So let me share some really important tips you may need to consider so you can get out of this rut and get moving in the right direction.

1. Stop looking for one big opportunity and take advantage of all the little opportunities that will ultimately prepare you for the big one. It is funny most of us spend all this time looking for some ginormous opportunity that never comes. When most, if not all of us grew and got prepared because we took on a number of small opportunities that eventually build up to a big one. Don’t despise small beginnings. Your “big break” will come if you do a great job with the small opportunities you have now.

2. Don’t sweat the small stuff, and it is all small stuff. I have seen so many people get derailed worrying about the small stuff. This didn’t happen the way it was supposed to, they didn’t pick me, why did they help me, and that is not fair, are some of the largest distractions on Earth. They keep you preoccupied on the small things and then you can’t work on the things that could actually help you grow. Your success is based on your actions, and NOTHING you can do will change what happened in the past so move on and move forward.

3. Always look for the open door, because if you believe it is there you will find it. There is a yes in your life right now you may just have to open your eyes to find it. Don’t look for the obvious, look at everything. I am willing to bet money that right now you have a life changing opportunity in your life that you probably don’t even see. It may be something small that you have to cultivate. It may be a small dream that you may have to take some baby steps with that will eventually turn into a big dream, but there is something. Be a good steward over what you already have and you will be amazed at what happens.

Put these tips into practice for a month, and I guarantee that you will be amazed at what happens. You may even want to start a journal just to capture the experiences so you can look back on them. Your life is full of life changing opportunities, they are just waiting for you to realize they are there and act on them!

    It really is amazing how many opportunities we let slip through our fingers because we don’t recognize them, think they’re beneath us, or don’t see where they will get us. We need to look at everything and ask if they are going to move us closer to, or further way from our passions. The big trick is to know what your passions are.

    I have found that when working with my clients to identify what their passions are, their life becomes infinitely more joyous because they are working to support that passion. Sometimes, the passion(s) actually turn out to be their purpose….what they have been put on earth to do.

    Each opportunity must be evaluated to see how it can and will support your passion. Even if it is a chance to learn something, and doesn’t directly move you to where you want to be, grab the opportunity and be ready for your big chance that will move you forward!

    These are really great advice. Especially the first one. We’re so used to instant gratification that we tend to take baby steps for granted.
