Hello, loyal readers! I read a statement that not only did I read it, but I also spoke it out loud. The quote said, “In the middle of crisis, their lies opportunity.” This quote made me ponder more deeply. Why? Because it speaks that there is a treasure in the center of difficulty. This treasure, when you look for it, will make you see things in a different perspective.
According to the dictionary, opportunity is defined as a good position, chance, or prospect, as for advancement or success. How can you see this in the midst of your crisis? First, take time to reflect on what you are trying to overcome. By writing down the problem and possible solutions, you are facing it head on.
This will allow your mind to become clearer because you are transferring your thoughts to a piece of paper. Write down the question, “how else can I achieve what I desire to do or attain?” Once you have exhausted your answers, ask someone experienced for wise counsel. An objective wise person will provide a greater insight you may have not yet considered.
Finally, put into action the steps you have determined would be the best option for your circumstance. However, remember to always have several backup plans. If it does not work as you had anticipated, no worries. Don’t halt! Use your backup plans until you succeed.
With determination, you will gain strength to find more creative ways for your situation. You will humbly seek advice from wise people you trust. Your inquisitive mind will discover new approaches for the challenge. The heart will be encouraged by your achievable actions. As your perceptive turns to the opportunity in the middle of your crisis, you will become unstoppable!
“Know that (skillful and godly) wisdom is (so very good) for your life and soul; if you find wisdom, then there will be a future and a reward, and your hope and expectations will not be cut off.” Proverbs 24:14
Peace, Love, and Joy!
