Making Use of the Opportunities!

Opportunity is the ready event that everyone seeks for in the marketplace of life. Businesses seek it. Organizations seek it. Even individuals seek it. It is prayed for. Worked for. Campaigned for and hoped for.

But a principal key to the provision and release of opportunities and constant availability of it is Attitude.

Attitude can make or break. It is a principal factor in the market place of life. The truth is your Attitude will ultimately determine your ALTITUDE (height/level) in life. But what is Attitude? Attitude is simply the way you see things. And the truth is that the way you see things is essentially a product of your PERSPECTIVE.

Talking about attitude and perspective - how would you respond when your proposal is rejected, turned down, not accepted? Perhaps, in one of several ways:

1) Maybe I didn't really do a thorough work - I guess I need to improve my skills.

2) Maybe they don't like me - they probably have respect of persons.

3) Perhaps the timing of my submission was not right - Maybe I need to resubmit the proposal at some future date.

4) I'm fed up of this whole thing.

The fact is that your ultimate action is a product of how you viewed that rejection. (If you took it personal, motivation to try again would completely be absent).

I roundoff by bringing to your knowledge an ancient writing ...a righteous man falls seven times, yet rises again...

If you view the rejection as an event separate from your person, you would try again. You would try other locations, etc.

I'll write more on this. Cheers!
