I remember growing up as a little girl.. My cousins and I would head out in the woods to play. We were unafraid and seldom looked forward to the exploration. We would often create games and interesting ways of entertaining each other. We lived in the country, about 10 miles from any department store. We were not priviledged to have the newest toys or access to playgrounds, or the YMCA. As children, we didn’t wait for opportunities, we created them. We made the best of what was within our environment. I learned a lot from my fearless and innovative youthful days. I’ve also utilized those same principles in my business and personal life. They work. I’ve had to identify opportunities as they present themselves and achieve the highest rewards within my scope of sphere.

If business employs the art of managing change, then entrepreneurship is the art of identifying and developing opportunity. We are all creative, however, some develop the creative gift more than others. Blossom where you are planted and know that you cannot wait for opportunities to come to you. You must intentionally pursue opportunities. If they don’t find you, create one!!!!!
