5 steps to seizing opportunity

Here are 5 suggestions for seizing opportunity, from Bill Paxon, founder of PAX TV (as cited in New Man magazine):

1. Don’t allow the past to prevent you from acting on what you perceive the future to hold.

2. Once you’re decided to pursue an opportunity, stay focused. Don’t get sidetracked on frivolous concerns.

3. When a good opportunity comes along, don’t turn it down just because it means changing course.

4. Utilize “super speed”: Some of the best opportunities develop with lightning speed and require equally quick reaction. If you are paralyzed by fear, you will miss them every time.

5. Remember: All it takes is one opportunity to transform your life and your world.
