Is Opportunity Monopolized? – The Science of Getting Rich Workbook - Chapter Three - Part One See introduction to the Science of Getting Rich Series

“No man is kept poor because opportunity has been taken away from him because other people have monopolized the wealth.

There are many business or career opportunities open to you. When you know what you love to do, and do it a Certain Way, you can always find something fulfilling and successful in that industry.”

• Many of us have spent years toiling away in jobs we know are not for us, so you might ask yourself. “Is Opportunity Monopolized?” “Why am I here?” I would ask you “Are you doing what you love? Or are you just working because that is where you ended up? No one is out to get you or stop you from achieving your highest success. You have to make the effort to get yourself out of this situation. You need to take a personal inventory of your life, so you can honestly assess what you want and start planning on get it.

• It might take time for you to realize that the world is your oyster and once you tap into and start using the principles laid out in this book you will be creating your own opportunities everyday.

“At different periods, the tide of opportunity sets in different directions. You have to figure out what people around you need. Then figure out how you can create a product or service that can satisfy that need.”

• Abundance of Opportunity - There is great opportunity at this time for everyone, with the advent of the Internet and the other resources available today. With some effort from you, you can have a business up and running in 24 hours. If your choice is a career, once you know what kind of job you will thrive in, you are able to create a tailor made game plan for getting the job.

• The lack of opportunity is all in your mind, you do have to do the due diligence to make sure people will want what you have to offer. Remember you are satisfying a need be it your employer or you customer. A good idea will always prosper, the only other thing you have is time, you have to commit to seeing your idea succeed most famous overnight successes started ten years before. I got a fruit bouquet the other day, assorted fruits cut like flowers, when you see things like that you realize that there is an abundance of opportunity for anyone with a great idea no matter how farfetched it is.

“There is abundance of opportunity for the man who will go with the tide, instead of trying to swim against it.”

• This statement evokes thoughts of the Law of Non-Resistance, “go with the tide,” you have to go with what is natural not force yourself to find what you love. If you have to fight to figure out what you love, then you are fighting a losing battle. The answers will probably be sitting right in front of you just waiting for you to take notice.

Ask Yourself
□ What are the most pressing needs of people in your area (location) or career field?
□ What products or services can you produce today to help satisfy these needs?
□ Would you rather be at another job? If so, what would you be doing?
