Opportunity is...

Opportunity is the culmination of prayer, preparation, and expectation. You see, we pray for an opportunity, but prayer without preparation is a setup for failure. Although failure is not the end of the world and can actually work in your favor, we should also do everything in our power to position ourselves for success. When you fail after doing all that you can, you can look back and say, "Okay, I did all that I could with what I knew, what have I learned from all of this."

My goal is to share with people that prayer without action is simply wishing. Pray and prepare. Prepare your mind, body, and soul for where you are going. You have to get your mind right because opportunity with the wrong mindset will still position you for failure. However, opportunity with the right mindset positions you for success. The body follows your mind so get your mind right and your actions will follow.

A part of getting in position for opportunity is developing an expectation for the opportunity to occur. You have to believe with everything in you that you will get the opportunity and be prepared to run with it to get your outcome! God desires the best for us, but if we only want the good He will let us have that. Expect God's best in your life and for your life. Expect opportunities that cost other people thousands of dollars, hours, and years to come your way quickly and for less or free! Then expect that you will do so much with the opportunity that you draw other opportunities to you! Opportunity is...what YOU make it! Make it GREAT!

Prayed up, Prepared, & Expecting Opportunity!
