Opportunities exist all around you. Sometimes they are placed in your hands. Sometimes you have to reach for them. Either way, you need to be aware of the opportunities around you. Do not make assumptions about the benefit to you with regard to any given opportunity, Some opportunities have direct payoff for you, others are not so obvious. Always, there are benefits that you did not see nor can you anticipate.
To succeed, jump as quickly at opportunities as you do at conclusions.

Opportunities are usually disguised as hard work, so most people don't recognize them.
