Opportuntiy is Everywhere

Opportunity is everywhere but a lot of people don’t realize its right in front of them or like I used to be, afraid of new things or the unknown. When I graduated high school I moved out and life hit me quick, I learned that in this day in age you have to take every opportunity that comes and also to go find opportunity yourself. I was always hesitant on new things because I was afraid to fail but I learned from some class readings that failure brings success.  We have also covered a lot about work and economy in class; I believe opportunity works hand-in-hand with those. I have noticed that if you sit back and watch instead of getting out there and making a name for yourself or whatever it might be. For a college student this is the best lesson you could use, every semester we basically compete to get classes and in college opportunity is everywhere around campus. All we have to do is have a competitive mind set.

Opportunity does not knock, it presents itself when you beat down the door.” –Kyle Chandler

  1. An excellent point, opportunity is everywhere however fear has that unfortunate ability to hinder our own success. One last thing, good work on relating this to your own experience.

  2. I agree with you on your post opportunity is everywhere, we just don't take a shot at it even though its right in front of us because we are afraid we are going to fail. but then again when we fail we just have to keep on trying and trying till we reach the goal we want to be at.

  3. Great points! I like how you talked about yourself in the beginning, I think that makes other readers relate more. All good observations and lessons about work, opportunity, fear, failure and success. Well said & nice quote at the end. //lm
