"The secret of success is to be ready when your opportunity comes.” – Benjamin Disraeli (1800’s)

"When opportunity knocks, do not complain about the noise". (attribution uncertain)

“Readiness is the mother of luck” –Baltasar Gracian (1647)

Opportunity can take many forms, and the window of opportunity can vary in duration. If we are ready for it we are more likely to recognize it and have the confidence and support to take action and make it happen.

If something hasn’t happened for you, it doesn’t mean it’s never going to happen. It might just mean you are not ready for it yet.

READINESS takes preparation, education, reflection, decision-making. If you have not already decided to use opportunities when they arise you are less likely to recognize them when they occur and be prepared for taking action when they do.

For STARTUP thinking, a type of READINESS is a mindset to see opportunities, to see beyond the surface of what you are viewing.

And if you START UP (with a positive attitude) this will be easier to do.
