"Be ready when opportunity comes...Luck is the time when preparation and opportunity meet." -- Roy D. Chapin, Jr.

Chris' Commentary:
Sooner or later, your "break" will come. You will get your chance. The question is not whether or not opportunity will knock or if the door will open, but whether or not you will be thoroughly prepared to knock back and blow through that door! You certainly don't want to have to tell your opportunity to "hold on for a minute while I go get ready!" I hate to tell you this, but opportunity can be an impatient suitor. If you can't or won't dance, he will find someone who will.

Action Point: What would be your "dream opportunity? Write it out. Now write out what you can do to be thoroughly prepared when you get the call. Write out what you can do to quicken the speed by which you will get your opportunity. When the pitch is thrown, you want to hit it out of the park!
