By George Matthew Adams (1913)

There are people who actually believe that the best Opportunities have all been lassoed, haltered, and hitched for life to somebody else’s front doorpost. But the truth is, nobody can corner Opportunity. For —

Opportunity is Everywhere.

A story is told of a Cup of many Handles. So many handles, in fact, that no matter from what direction a person would approach it, there was a handle to greet him. All that was necessary was to step up and TAKE the handle. like unto this Cup is Opportunity.

Opportunity is Everywhere.

Opportunity is the Cup — and there is a handle in your town. You can grasp it if you will but reach for it. And you need have no fear that somebody else will beat you to your handle — for there is a handle for every single person in your town.

Opportunity is Everywhere.

Not in New York, or Chicago, or San Francisco alone, but in Kokomo, Indiana, Reading, Michigan, and Tacoma, Washington. The handles are everywhere. Just hunt them out and GRASP one and don’t let it get away from you. And after you have a handle, lift The Cup and drink from its priceless contents.

Opportunity is Everywhere.

Think of The Cup. Think of its many Handles. When something comes up that ought to be done but that you don’t want to do — DO it. That’s a Handle. When something happens that takes you from your planned out Task — have no fear. That’s a Handle. Get a GRIP upon it. Always look for one of the Handles. And get in the habit of using them. This is the way to learn that —

Opportunity is Everywhere.
