Ever wonder how many good opportunities just pass you up?
Success tip # 46 says to write them down. Or at least make a recording ( small minni - hand held recorder ) of them to be writtrn in a note book later on.
Then what? Act on them - of course.
Ever wonder where and what might be if you actually did act on every positive opportunity that came your way?
Hummmm I wonder....I suppose I could start with - my second ( BLOG LOG www.blogigo.com/jamryn1 ) blog - here on blogigo and make it an Opportunities log - of sorts.
Have we settled for - middle of the road - as little as possable existance ? Are these type of mistakes that common place - nowdays?
This is what I found on the frount page of todays paper.
Story # 1. Aitline mix-up wasn't luggage, but teen

My attempt at poetery... written about 35 years ago when I was in my mid 20's.
The Window
As I sit by the window and wait.
The state of the world I contemplate.
Be it love or be it hate.
What once was - is - and again can be be great.
As I had once sit by that window and waited.
And waited and waited and waited.
Was it love I was searching for?
Or was it truly something more?
As I sit by that window and wait.
I realize that whatI'm truly seeking.
Is not something outside - inwardely speaking.
But something planted within by the creator of all creators.
Saying - woe - to those in the vast sea of haitfull haters.
By that window I will no longer wait.
Watching the best of my life - the world to continue to take.
Choices are mine to make.
Be it love or be it hait.
My own road I choose to take!
And traveling on it - will be great !
As I look back I can say - it was - is - and will continue to be.
After( me ) loosing an election this spring my husband would have me to think - once a failure always a failure. That the saying - When at first you don't succeed, try try again. That that statement isn't true.
I guess then I should join the ranks of these other losers......
# 1. Lost his first job
His bussiness failed leaving others in debt
He lost a bid for state legistator
His bride to be ( the love of his life ) died
He had a nervous break down
He had idenity issues
His second ingagement of marrage failed
He sank in to a deep depresion
He lost a bid for senator
He lost a bid for vice president
He was strongly advised not to run for re-election after he became president
# 2. An inventor that failed the first 10,000 times.
Who were they?????
# 1. Abraham Lincon
# 2. Thomas Edison Edison said
" I didn't fail 10,000 times. I successfuly eliminated 10,000 materials and combinations that didn't work."
Hummmm....I guess I have at least 9,999,98 more times to try for the position that I want - before I count myself a real failure.
