Missed Opportunities
The average person gets 500,000 hours to do with them what they will. You can spend them watching TV, sleeping, whining, working, playing, living or some combination of the above.
Opportunities come to everyone but it depends on how you choose to define an opportunity.
It could be an investment, relationship, career or any other type of break, luck or future unknown. One of my favorite quotes is by Mark Twain when he said that luck is when preparation meets opportunity.
What exactly is an opportunity?
Is it the chance to begin again?
Is it an unplanned for blessing?
Is it meeting a stranger who is destined to become your best friend?
Is it the result of hard work, patience and persistence?
Is it one of many blessings or miracles that cross our path regardless of whether we are ready for them or not?
Or, is it just fate or destiny dropping a special gift in your lap and then leaving it up to you whether you notice it or not or do something or anything with it? I know that during my life I have had many opportunities that I missed and many that I embraced.
Here’s the problem. How do you know it is in fact an opportunity with future good fortune waiting in the wings? you know it by watching all your fellows chilling out beside the Rohtas Fort and latter enjoying the sunset beside the river Jehlum....
That Rohtas Trip was actually a missed opportunity for me.
