If you complain that you’ve never been given a chance, you probably haven’t had the courage to take a chance

I can’t tell you how many times I here people say they’d make that big change in their life–pursue a dream career, start a business, move to another country, confess their love–if they knew it would work out. Well…I hate to break it to you but you never will know ahead of time if you’re goal will work out. So if you’re waiting for the certainty of knowing how something is going to play out you better stop waiting. It ain’t gonna come. Here’s a thought for the day from Napoleon Hill Foundation. They truly are fantastic.
Thought for the Day
June 15, 2009THE PERSON WHO COMPLAINS THAT HE OR SHE NEVER HAD A CHANCE PROBABLY HASN’T THE COURAGE TO TAKE A CHANCE.
Thomas Edison once observed that the reason most folks don’t recognize opportunity when it comes along is that it is often dressed in coveralls and look like work. Often opportunity involves a great deal of work and a willingness to take a chance on something, the outcome of which may be uncertain. Eventually you reach a point when you must either accept an opportunity with all of its unknowns or else turn your back on it. No one can tell you when you have reached that point; you alone know when it’s time to make your move, to have the courage to take a chance.This positive message is brought to you by the Napoleon Hill Foundation.
