The 3 Elements of Prime Opportunity | MWM
Step Outside Your Comfort Zone = Success often hinges on our ability to seize significant opportunities when they appear. It involves calculated risk taking and stepping outside of your comfort zone. Is there an opportunity that you need to seize today? Outline the benefits and steps to capitalize on the opportunity and then take action!




Which Book of John Maxwell’s is His Favorite? | MWM
Be Excited By Your Opportunities = Opportunity should excite us! An opportunistic person must bring excitement with them into the next opportunity and moment of impact. As you take the day on, look for opportunities to better fulfill the purpose, mission, and vision that you as a leader are carrying. When you look at every moment as an opportunity to be more effective, you become more effective.




Problems Will Improve You If You Let Them | MWM
Problems Create Opportunities = The seventh principle of problem-solving is believing there is always an opportunity. All problems create opportunities when you have the right attitude. If you look at a problem correctly, there is always an answer, always a lesson, and always an opportunity.
#opportunity



This Greek Statue Inspired Our Understanding of Opportunity
https://youtu.be/7wS_Xd1k84Y
Schedule Your Priorities = You can grab an opportunity when it comes at you, but you can’t grab hold of it after it has passed. This is a reminder of how to manage time. If you manage your time well, you can seize opportunities. The issue isn’t prioritizing your schedule, but scheduling your priorities, so you can seize the moments when they come.


Opportunity Opens Doors and Expands Your Life
Chase Opportunities And Discover New Possibilities = Discovering an opportunity can be very satisfying. Once you find an opportunity and seize the moment, your life begins to expand and open up with possibilities that you never imagined. Find, chase, and maximize opportunities and gain returns.



Statement of Strength for Leaders...Opportunity = Today’s Statement of Strength: “In the middle of the difficulty lies opportunity.” –Albert Einstein


https://youtu.be/Xs35cWgER8s
Work for the Opportunity = Opportunities come and go, some without warning. You must be prepared in order to succeed! Practice day in and day out, so when that opportunity arises you are ready to face it head-on.



Create the Opportunity -- Stop avoiding the problem, and achieve the opportunity. Don't sit back and wait for life to happen, instead, create the life you want. By doing so - you will stop waiting for the right moment and start living in the moment.

Every Problem Is An Opportunity In Disguise = Every problem that comes to you has an opportunity. Even if you don't see it initially, each problem has a unique solution and opportunity, and has the potential to help you grow as a leader. 

In The Middle of Difficulty, Find The Opportunity

Do You Have A Chip On Your Shoulder? = Great winners have a chip on their shoulder. This means, they were told in their past that they had no chance of being successful, and they held onto that moment of disrespect to remind themselves how hard they have to work to be exceptional. Use the disrespect of others, the chip on your shoulder, as motivation. Go out and do something special.
