Oppurtunity

Another great quote:
“What is opportunity, and when does it knock? It never knocks. You can wait a whole lifetime, listening, hoping, and you will hear no knocking. None at all. You are opportunity, and you must knock on the door leading to your destiny. You prepare yourself to recognize opportunity, to pursue and seize opportunity as you develop the strength of your personality, and build a self-image with which you are able to live / with your self-respect alive and growing.”
-Dr. Maxwell Maltz

My opinion:
If you have not read Dr. Maxwell Maltz's book Psycho-Cybernetics I strongly recommend you do so.
Most people will sit around waiting for some great thing to come and find them instead of creating the opportunities to live the life that they want.
How can you do this?
One thing you need to look at is your self image. What do you believe about yourself? Another famous saying by Dr. Maltz was that "You will never outperform your own self image.".
To relate that to you financially: This means if you believe you are worth $30,000, you will never make more than $30,000. You will always hover around that amount.
I encourage all of you to take a long look at what you believe about yourself.

Until next time....
