Opportunity Is Knocking

Throughout our lives there are many opportunities that come before us, but it is not the opportunity that is the key...it is what we do with that opportunity. If you had the opportunity to invest in Microsoft in the early stages of the company you would be beyond wealthy today. As a matter of fact, your family would be set for generations. I would say that would have been a good opportunity had you actually acted on it. Opportunities come in many different forms and is not only related to money. However, for this post I will relate opportunities with money.

The first thing to be established is, "What is an opportunity?" It is a favorable juncture of circumstances. When everything lines up and a situation arrives that can provide a benefit or advancement to you then you are looking at an opportunity right in the face. Some examples would be knowing about a stock before it goes public. You would have an opportunity to benefit from knowing that information, but then you must take action. How about someone offering you an incredible job, but you would have to move your family to another country? That is also an opportunity, but the circumstances that you are in also plays a key role in the acceptance of that opportunity.

Throughout our lives we are faced with many opportunities to make more money, but a lot of times don't seize the opportunity because of our current circumstances. Maybe the opportunity requires an initial investment or a relocation, but you must understand, that is what makes an opportunity. It is that juncture of circumstances that makes you decide weather to pursue the opportunity or pass it by. I believe that many people pass on great opportunities because of their current situation. I guess you could call it fear or possibly lack of information.

With any opportunity to make money you have to decide on several things before acting on your intuition. The first thing to determine is if there is a cost involved. Can I afford this investment? Will I be willing to sacrifice certain things to take this on. The most common would be time. Are you willing to put time into this opportunity? How about your comfort zone? Do you have the desire to stretch and expand that zone so you can achieve more? All the stars have to line up for you to take on a good opportunity, but just remember that opportunities come and go, but it is what you do with them that counts.

For me, Isagenix was a great opportunity to get involved because it had low start up costs ($19.00), it offered me a chance to become healthy by putting quality products in my body and it is providing me a chance to become financially free. This opportunity is low risk and high return on investment. If you are looking for an opportunity like this then please contact me to see if it is the right one for you.
