Opportunities Rarely Knock
People imagine opportunity arriving with fireworks.
A perfect job.
A brilliant business idea.
The love of your life.
In reality...
Opportunity usually arrives looking like extra work.
Or terrible timing.
Or something that makes you nervous enough to say:
"Maybe next year."
Why We Miss Them
Sometimes we're scared.
Sometimes we're comfortable.
Sometimes we don't even realize an opportunity was standing right in front of us until it's already gone.
Everyone has that one story.
"I almost..."
"I could have..."
"I should have..."
Every Opportunity Comes With Risk
Changing jobs.
Starting a business.
Moving to another country.
Asking someone out.
None of them come with guarantees.
If they did...
They wouldn't really be opportunities.
They'd be appointments.

Planning is overrated.

The Real Advice
The biggest regret most people have isn't failing.
It's never trying.
You'll survive embarrassment.
You'll survive rejection.
You'll even survive that haircut you thought looked good in 2012.
Give yourself the chance.
