“What you want is out of your reach so that you can become the person it takes to have it. “-Dr. Shawne Duperon
Over the last month, we’ve explored how to Own Your Story, how to Own Your Power and how to Own Your Presence. But when are you going to OWN YOUR SUCCESS! What are you waiting for? Oprah defines luck as when opportunity and preparation meets. If you don’t prepare, how will you BE ready when the ‘opportunity’ shows up?
“The opportunity of a lifetime has to be seized in the lifetime of that opportunity.” ~Leonard Ravelhill
I recently read a piece by Leonard Ravelhill: “The opportunity of a lifetime has to be seized in the lifetime of that opportunity”. The position may not always be open. The person may not always be receptive to feedback. The spotlight may not always be on you. The stage may not always be yours. The trust may not always be there.”
The opportunity of a lifetime has to be seized in the lifetime of that opportunity.
If you are ready to OWN YOUR SUCCESS…What does that look like?
