Impossible Situations
At one time or another, we have all faced a series of what were extraordinary opportunities brilliantly disguised as impossible situations.
You know what I'm talking about.
It all works out in the end, and looking back, you can see the good in it.
Everything is self-evident after the fact. The key is identifying the opportunity while it is still disguised as an impossible or bad situation.
Maybe you are there hoping to find the good in a situation.
I had one of those three years ago with the ‘early retirement’ opportunity I shared a few days ago. If you missed the story, you can read it here.
Even without knowing the outcome, I went all in on finding the great opportunity in the midst of the challenge.
Looking at the situation as an opportunity rather than a problem made all the difference in my approach.
It led to success much quicker than the reverse attitude would have done.
