Last post I wrote about the expression; it’s not what happens, it’s what you do about what happens. Today I want to elaborate on that post for a bit, starting by sharing a quote;
“The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word 'crisis'. One brush stroke stands for danger; the other for opportunity. In a crisis, be aware of the danger-but recognize the opportunity.” John F. Kennedy
Every challenge presents opportunity and that opportunity is to grow and move forward or to stop and shut down. I don’t believe that many people shut down because they are afraid of the opportunity, I think they do it because they don’t see the opportunity because they are too caught up in the trees to see any forest.
But what if you could catch yourself and remember to look for the opportunity? All it would take is for you to develop the habit of ‘looking for the treasure amongst all the trash.’ So just learn to issue yourself a bolo (be on the lookout) whenever a challenge crops up. You can do it and you know you can.
