Are you ready to take advantage of the opportunities that await you? In the video below, Jim Rohn talks about unprecedented opportunity and competition. While we are in the midst of some very challenging times, we are also embarking on period in which new business leaders will emerge.
Are you prepared to receive what you desire?
If you were suddenly offered that dream job or landed that dream client, are you in a position to accept?
Be honest with yourself. If the answer is no, you need to prepare yourself to seize your opportunity. It’s no coincidence that some people become “overnight” successes. These individuals were ready when their number was called. Get your mind right, and prepare for your opportunity.
Are you ready to compete?
There will be competition, but the cream will always rise to the top. The reason only a few make it to the top is because they do the things average people won’t do.Internet and technology will make it possible for your business to be global even if you run it from your basement.But you have to offer YOUR talent to the world. It’s ok to learn from the “gurus” but you need to be a leader not a follower. Every one of us is unique and has a story to tell. The only way to compete is to create and invest in your brand (YOU).
Creating momentum in business is the challenge that seems most important to beginning entrepreneurs. It’s a challenge we all have to deal with at one time or another.
I personally go through periods where my business creates incredible momentum and other periods when it needs a kick start. It’s a complicated thing to manage.
In the classic motivational book “Think and Grow Rich” author Napoleon Hill made the famous claim: “Whatever your mind can conceive and believe it can achieve.” Although I’m a big believer in the power of visualization, business success will not be achieved by thoughts alone. In order to achieve any level of business success you must turn those thoughts into powerful forces.
In physics, a force is that which can cause an object with mass to accelerate. The scientific formula for force is
F = m*a
Force = mass times acceleration
In order to create a force you need mass to be accelerated. Therefore in order to create business force you have to put your body into motion. Usually when there is a lull in business, it’s normally caused by a decrease in your activity level.
Starting to see where I’m going with this?
If you really want to create a huge force in business, you need to figure out a monthly, weekly, and daily plan of action. The bigger the idea, the more consistent the action, the bigger the resulting force will be.

This is a phrase often repeated by famous ad exec Donny Deutsch and a question I often ask myself when I begin to doubt my abilities.
A couple of years ago I made a very important decision that greatly impacted the rest of my life. I was tired of being a pawn in the game of corporate chess. I knew I was worth far more than what my salary indicated. I also knew I would never be completely fulfilled if I continued on my chosen path. Although I knew I deserved better, I had become an expert on how I could fail. I could give a seminar on all the various reasons why my ideas wouldn’t work.I often told myself ‘The other guy is successful because he was connected, or lucky, or had perfect timing’.
One night while lying in bed I decided “I’m through feeling second class. I immediately jumped up, grabbed a pen and notepad, and wrote down the names of five people I’ve known for several years who had far surpassed me in earning power and job responsibility. Next, I compared myself with them on intelligence, education, work ethic, appearance, and people skills. I discovered that none of the individuals blew me away; in fact I was better than all in one area or the other. The only quality that separated us was THOUGHTS. Successful thoughts consumed their minds and they spoke about successful things. I on the other hand thought failure and spoke about failures.
Today I live a far different life.I no longer feel underappreciated or have problems sleeping because of work anxiety. It all changed when I started to believe I was entitled to success.
Why Not You? You have to believe you deserve success and think success. You must feel entitled to being successful. Success doesn’t always go to the smartest or most talented but to those who believe they deserve it and whose actions are consistent with that belief. Think success, create your moment and own it.
