Opportunity is Owned, Not Received

Quit waiting for opportunity to knock …

Opportunity doesn’t bust down the door and find you.?It is the result of ACTIVE NOTICING.

The best innovations, interventions, solutions, connections, and creations are not passively received.

They arrive to open, aware, flexible, and actively NOTICING minds.

Opportunity is OWNed in that it is typically subtle, counterintuitive, and shows up amid hassle, struggle, or downright pain …

ONLY in a moment (therefore easily missed) such that if you’re flexibly aware you are also thinking, feeling, and acting …

WITHOUT fixating on assumptions, predictable conclusions, rigid expectations, and most importantly, your ego and its never-ending need for control, and instead you are …

NOTICING all that’s popping up, savage or subtle in your bodily sensations, thoughts, emotions, and the situation at hand.

You’re an owner dammit, and you don’t wait for opportunity to come a’knockin!?

You’ve learned, prepped, built skills, done your damn homework but far beyond these you’ve learned to drop the mental screw-jobs of control and you’re radar dish of awareness is wide open.?

You’re ready such that you exhale into a receptive letting go that IS owning the moment such that you catch the whiffs of opportunity just as they rise.?

You’re ready such that you don’t hesitate to ACT in ways that fit, that resonate, with WHAT IS required for opportunity to get escorted through the door without any knocking on its part.

It’s like you were at the door all.?You weren’t distracted.?You weren’t multi-tasking.?You were and ARE noticing …

How much has waiting for Opportunity’s door-pounding worked for you??Instead, how active were you in owning any opportunity that turned into something of meaning and impact?
