Opportunities often appear when we least expect them, but not everyone is in a position to take advantage of them. The truth is, an opportunity isn't really an opportunity unless you're ready to seize it. Preparation is what turns a seemingly lucky break into a life-changing moment.

Being “ready” means more than just having the right skills. It’s about mindset, preparation, and timing. You could have the perfect job offer land in your lap, but if you haven’t built the skills or confidence to handle it, it might slip away. Similarly, a business venture could present itself, but without the groundwork laid, it could be an overwhelming challenge instead of a success.

Readiness comes from consistent effort—working hard even when no immediate opportunities are in sight. It’s about refining your abilities, learning continuously, and staying adaptable. Only then can you recognize and act on the right chances when they come along.

In the end, opportunity alone isn’t enough. It’s the combination of preparation and timing that turns potential into progress. The key is to stay ready, so when that door opens, you’re not hesitating at the threshold.
