Opportunity…
is usually closer
than we imagine. In fact,
we are surrounded by it
and even more startling, we
are immersed in it

Life is full of doors.
Some are wide open.
Some appear locked.
Some quietly wait for someone willing to turn the handle.
I’ve learned that opportunity often looks very ordinary.
It doesn’t always arrive with fanfare.
Sometimes it arrives disguised as a conversation.
A book.
An idea.
A friendship.
A challenge.
Or simply another ordinary day.
THE HANDLE
A door may be beautiful.
It may promise wonderful things beyond it.
Yet nothing changes until someone reaches for the handle.
Knowledge alone is never enough.
Understanding alone is never enough.
Action completes the journey.
SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT
Many people spend years waiting for another opportunity.
Meanwhile, the one already before them quietly waits to be opened.
PUT LEGS ON IT
Read the book.
Take the class.
Write the letter.
Make the phone call.
Offer forgiveness.
Accept the invitation.
Turn the handle.
RICHIE SPEAKING
Some of the greatest opportunities in my life looked surprisingly ordinary when they first arrived.
I almost walked past them.
