I hope all of you had great weekend full of fun and love 
Today is Monday the start of a new work week for most and so this Motivation Monday post is about opportunity.
“Don’t wait for extraordinary opportunities. Seize common occassions and make them great. Weak men wait for opportunities; strong men make them.” Orison Swett marden
Sometimes opportunities don’t “knock” at the door, you have to go to the door yourself and open it to make your own way. People don’t realize that success does not just come to you, you have to WORK for it. People are afraid to work. In order to reap benefits you must sow and sowing involves work. What you put in to something you will get in return. It’s called reciprocity.
People complain about their current relationships, living arrangements, and jobs, but what opportunities are you creating for yourself to change your situation? This is 2010 and we cannot just sit around thinking that what we want is going to fall into our lap. Sorry to tell you, but it does not work that way. We need to be strong, confident, and secure to go after what we want. Sure we will have our weak moments, but we cannot let those keep us down. Go after what you want and create your own opportunities. Create your own path if you do not want to follow anyone else’s path. You have to make your won way sometimes and let today be the day. If there is something in your life that you want to change and make better, GO FOR IT. Fear is mental, so don’t be afraid to try have a postive attitude and things will start to change. You must remember though that CHANGE IS A PROCESS, NOT AN EVENT (Pastor A.R. Bernard) so if it is not going to happen tomorrow, but start today to make that change and create the opportunities you will need to have a better life.
*This post is my motivation…I need to act and create my own way. Actions speak louder than words*
