Are your Surviving or Thriving?
Open your mind; Opportunities are Everywhere!
Whether in your personal or professional life, the ability to identify and take opportunities is often the factor that determines whether you are surviving or thriving.
You may know this may be the case but sometimes we can get so wrapped up in the day to day challenges and problem solving that it can be difficult to lift our head above the parapet and consider opportunities that are out there.
It then becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy because if we do not open our mind and our eyes we will not see those opportunities.
Here are 3 steps to helping you recognise opportunities and take them!
✅ Set Clear Goals. When you know where you are heading, opportunities become much more apparent. Having short term goals will help you stay focussed on action and delivery. Longer term goals and having a sense of direction will help you to recognise opportunities that align with your overall desires and objectives.
✅ Be Curious and Open-Minded. Being curious and open-minded will create new and different experiences and perspectives. As you engage with others and listen actively you may find opportunities arise in unexpected places and having an open mind is key for this.
✅ Develop a Growth Mindset. Once you recognise opportunities it is then important to take them. This requires a growth mindset that embraces the challenge of growth rather than thinking of insurmountable obstacles. Or a mindset that recognises there is no failure, it is an opportunity for feedback or learning. This approach helps overcome the fear of stepping out of your comfort zone and seizing that opportunity.
Finding opportunities requires a combination of clarity in your direction and a willingness to open your mind to new ideas and perspectives.
How did you read the words in the picture above?
Once you find them, the next step is to step out of your comfort zone, to face any fear with courage and take the opportunity with a positive growth mindset and all of this will lead to a clearer and brighter future and thriving, not just surviving!
