For my second motivational post this weekend, I want to pass on to you something a fellow shared with me after a seminar one time.
He gave me a business card that said:
OPPORTUNITYISNOWHERE
At first, I read it as…
Opportunity is nowhere.
How gloomy? Who would pass out a business card saying opportunity is nowhere? Someone’s had some tough experiences… lol.
But then, I took another look at the card and I saw something different this time.
It didn’t say, “Opportunity is nowhere.”
In fact, it said quite the opposite.
It said, “Opportunity is NOW here.”
How could I have missed that?
Well, the truth is that many people can look at the same situation and perceive two different things!
One person can see opportunity… another person can see despair.
One person can notice all the positive things about a situation, where the other person may notice all the shortcomings.
It’s called perception.
How do you see things?
Do you see the glass as half empty or half full?
Perception is everything!
I’ll leave you with a quote by Wayne Dyer…
“If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”
Until next time —
