Have you ever noticed how opportunities are all around you? We get what we focus on. Once you start noticing what is happening it will be amazing to realize the possibilities which exist. Treasures are like opportunities. There is often variety in the size and shape.

I realized this after launching a podcast. The realization that creating an audio course was possible. The day this happened, was an empowering revelation!

No one told me to start. I had to seize the opportunity before me and begin. Now after six months of building, I have a course to share with those seeking to energize their personal brand.

One of my biggest fears has been starting a project and not finishing it. It is amazing to observe the lifecycle of a project. The last 10% of completing a project can be the hardest. I found that out as I put the finishing touches on a product I developed. I had a speaking tour scheduled; this created the perfect springboard to launch the product. I could not pass up the opportunity.

A lot of sweat, tears and loss of voice occurred in completing the last 10%. I knew if I didn’t seize the opportunity to go to market I would kick myself. What happened? I reached a goal and now hundreds can enjoy the value of this course.

When opportunities rise up, ask yourself the following questions:

1. Will this help me reach my goal?
2. What time and resources will it take?
3. How will this opportunity impact my team? (Employees, Co-Workers, Family)
4. Will I kick myself if I pass it up?
5. What’s the benefit?

Being decisive is one of the greatest traits of a leader. You are the leader of your own life and destiny. What opportunities are around you now just waiting for you to embrace?

Here’s a trunk full of opportunities to explore: sign up for my free newsletter, buy my audio course on energizing your personal brand or let me know how we can work together today with an email to Linda@Lhyatesconsulting.com.
