MANAGING OPPORTUNITY — Maximizing Tangible & Intangible Assets for Ultimate Success

With challenging activity surrounding our financial world in recent days, the worry of crisis anywhere and everywhere can be easily upon us. How might we look at this?

What if we focused on how best to manage opportunity successfully? As opposed to stress of managing risk and looking for what is wrong or can go wrong — consider balancing opportunity with risk, instead of balancing risk with opportunity.

What if we looked at all our endeavors starting with our personal lives to running a business, to running a government to any projects (like hiring new people), to enhancing IT or AI capabilities? First, these are opportunities. How do we make it work? What can we do to move it forward? Get it grounded before we begin to find out how it might not work. How many times have we met someone and, in the first moments, thought about getting out of there? Then, giving the interaction a chance, we find that we have met a new friend.

As this quote from the book “The Obstacle Is the Way” notes:

All challenges, big and small, have their opportunities. The chance to work through these challenges — knowing that better can come from it — can reap all kinds of personal, team, community benefits. Growth, on both internal and external platforms, is one of them.

“The obstacle in the path becomes the path. Never forget: Within every obstacle is an opportunity to improve our condition.”
