The importance of staying ready...when you're always ready opportunity will find you!

Fate seldom calls at a time of our choosing! We all wish success occurred on a schedule or on a predictable timeline but it most often does not.  Often time our greatest opportunities come when we least expect them and our ultimate success will boil down to our ability to seize upon these rare moments when they occur. Many great and talented athletes have never made it to the top or fulfilled their potential in their chosen sport or endeavor simply because they could only perform to a schedule. This is not to say schedules are not important but life and opportunity  DO NOT care about your schedule.  As a result, you must be mentally tough enough to stay ready and wait. Waiting, unfortunately,  is part of the process many times.  It can be frustrating and maddening at times but waiting for your opportunity is often required. The MOST important thing you must do is be ready when the moment arrives.It is also true that the more you work and the more you give to any worthwhile endeavor the greater the chances opportunity will find you.  There is an old saying: "the harder I work luckier I get." This is true and opportunity finds those who make themselves available for it. Always be ready and opportunity will find you!
