Why You Won’t Get Your Turn
Making bad decisions in my youth, that cost me opportunities academically as a senior.
Choosing not to go to graduate school til after 10 years after I got my bachelors to start my business and help my son.
Reasons Why You Miss Opportunities
Wasting Time
Don’t put something off for tomorrow, that you can do today. Tomorrow isn’t promised to you.
Facebook and Instagram eats hours out of your life on a daily basis.
Are you doing things that contribute to progression of you? If not, stop doing them. 1980 US Hockey Team that won the gold medal against Russia
Mixing with the wrong people
Two much noise drowns out positive thoughts
Know that people aren’t obligated to see your vision, so you can’t expect them to always cheerlead you.
You have to make a wise decision on who you share your dreams and goals with, because they can destroy them with their fears.
Not focusing
I know you've heard the saying, “A jack of all trades is a master of none”
Hell I’ve been guilty of it
We sometimes have so much we want to do or thinking about doing, and forget and miss opportunities right in our face.
Remember, we see what we seek
Not taking risks
You’ll always get the same results in life, if you are always doing the same things.
Opportunities don’t come all the time, and most of the time they come associated with some type of risk.
Fear
The ultimate inhibitor in life.
We’ve all felt it, and we all must decide how much of it we will let it overcome behavior.
Ways To Avoid Missing Your Turn
Open your damn mouth
Why should anyone pay attention to someone that won’t speak for themself.
You’ll keep getting cut in line and passed over.
Take ownership, even when it technically isn’t yours
You truly have to believe that opportunity is yours.
Claim it, but just with your words, but with your actions.
Believe in yourself, when no one else does
You belief and confidence will project out to others.
Opportunities will gravitate to you because of the belief you have in yourself and your abilities
Stay ready
You’ll always be ready if you stay ready.
They worst thing that can happen, is that when an opportunity comes, you aren’t prepared.
You are solely responsible for your well being and future, don’t empower others with control over your destiny.
Never let age or circumstances deter you from taking a chance.
Circumstances and situations never change unless you make them. Time goes on, with or without you making a move.
Who wants to grow old with regret? Look in an older person's eyes when they talk about what they wish they had done. Do you want that damn look?
