Learning To See Opportunities

An opportunity is a possibility due to favourable combination of circumstances. Some say it comes only but once. However, a second thought about opportunities would suggest to you that opportunities are ever present and visible to us. The only challenge here is learning to see these opportunities when it comes, and grabbing them for good.

Sometimes, opportunities don't come the way we expect them to come. While we are so uptight about what we feel or expect to be opportunities, it may decide to take another turn.

Opportunities are game changers! It comes with huge responsibility but never leave its candidates empty. Opportunities are not gotten by searching too far alone. It can be searched out both near and far. The question here is do we have the teachable eyes needed to see these opportunities?

A teachable eye is an extraordinary eye. It is an eye that is ready and willing to be taught and illuminated as it sees beyond the norm. And because it sees beyond the norm, it has the ability of interpreting clearly what is an opportunity and what is not. While others may see, misinterprete and walk away, it sees, process and embrace. A teachable eye sees beyond circumstances and challenges. This is why an individual, person(s), people or group of people with this innate features are able to scale through hard times, coming out stronger and better.

What do you see in that circumstance, environment, vicinity, community, society nation...where you are? Do you see lack or abundance? Do you see mediocrity or excellence? Do you see limitations or potentials? Do you see casting downs or lifting ups? Do you see opportunities?

Opportunities doesn't have to come in the positives all the time. Sometimes, it disguises itself. It takes the well cooked, flavoured, tamed, trained, seasoned, grounded, rooted...eyes to detect it, process it, relish it, and live it.

Look around you, and you will find an opportunity. Don't refrain from the challenges that comes with it. Face it, and with time, you will be smiling to the bank. Remember, learning to see opportunities where others cannot find them, gives you a hedge over challenges.When others say there is a casting down, you have a choice to say there is a lifting up! #Teachable eyes#Opportunities#Hedge#Challenges.
