Right Opportunity
Is success in business/Career a matter of ‘Luck’ or ‘Self-effort’? It’s a question often asked, especially by those who are struggling to build their companies/Career.
There’s this saying about success being 99 percent hard work and 1 percent luck. But, remember, you will never get lucky till you put in the best of your efforts. Only then will opportunity knock on your door.
Chanakya says that when such an opportunity finally comes, potentially bringing the success you aim for, you should be alert enough to grab it.
“Time comes but once to a man waiting for an opportunity; that time is difficult for that man to get again when he wants to do his work”
You might have heard the adage that talks of opportunity not knocking twice, but here’s another interesting one for you – “When opportunity knocks, either we are out or sleeping in!”
Still, We have to understand that it is not only about the opportunity itself but about the ‘right’ opportunity at that. So how does one recognize this so-called ‘right’ opportunity’?
Here are some step to follow
Nothing But The Best
Usually, people who are learning the tricks of the trade feel every opportunity is the best opportunity. This is simple not true. you will have to struggle for a few years and put in your best efforts before you develop the ‘knack’ to differentiate between right and wrong, good and bad, and even the simply ‘better’ from the very ‘best’.
Learn To Say ‘No’
It’s quite a temptation to say ‘yes’ to every event that ‘seems’ to be an opportunity. When an opportunity comes – stay calm. Think it through – is it a profitable venture? Plan a strategy and then decide to capitalize on it.
Jump Into It
Once you have thought it through, jump into the field right away. Do not think too much after this stage. Just go out and perform your best. You never know if such a chance will come again.
People only see the success a man has achieved; they never recognize the hardships that he has gone through to become successful.
Ray Kroc, the founder of Mc Donald’s, was once asked in an interview, “Sir, you were very lucky! You become an overnight success. “Ray remarked, “Yes, that is true. But you do not know how long the night was…..!’
After putting in your time, energy, and efforts to build your dreams, do not quite when success is just right round the corner.
As Swami Vivekananda Proclaimed, “Awake, arise! Stop not till thy goal is reached.”
And for all this, remember, it’s all a matter of timing.
