Opportunity comes but once.

As the topic states that "opportunity comes but once"I'll try to bring to our understanding about how we see opportunity and overlook them and also broaden our minds about how opportunities never goes but keeps knocking on our door daily.

When we look at the topic,I know most of us have come across this one time or the other in our various lifestyle but to quicken our minds and make us understand it better let me go straight to the point without further ado.

I'll illustrate this with some short stories to make us understand it.

There was a teenager who worked hard day and night to struggle for his course and pursuing for good grades in the university,he came out in flying colors and he had a lifetime opportunity to become what he wanted,he lived in ogun state and the person who wants to give him a job that would change his life is from U.S.A but came to lagos and notified him that he was around, though he got the notice late so he was taking things slow and didn't meet up with the day,he missed a great opportunity there to travel out of his country and work in a good place where they would be paying him well,just like this little teenager missed a great opportunity we all have once missed some too.

Some of us must have heard about Bitcoin when it was first launched but we didn't take advantage of it for a better use to buy and hold cause we thought it was something that wouldn't rise, imagine someone who sold his 5 BTC in an exchange for a pizza,if he had only knew that it would rise anytime sooner he wouldn't have sold it off.

Many of us have missed so many opportunities back then which we keep in our minds as memories which we won't forget, though we might have it in mind that whenever we miss any given opportunity we have lost it all but that's a big "NO".

Opportunities would surely keep knocking at your door but this time it wouldn't come like it did the first time,it would come in disguise,it would never stop coming to us.

We all should note that opportunity beckons on us everyday of our life,so we should take every piece of opportunity we've got and make the best out of it in our daily lifestyle.

We might see opportunity as a one-time event that happens once in someone's life,you are wrong in that aspect if we have such thinking, opportunity knocks at our door daily, it's just the way we take the first one that would determine.

Opportunities always knock our door daily we just need to quicken our footsteps to grab one and make the best out of it to become great in life,an opportunity can change your life in a few hours.

If we make use of one opportunity well and make the best out of it,it could create 10 more opportunities for us.

Moral lesson: don't always think you've missed an opportunity in life,grab the next one and make good use of it to become a better person,there are tons of opportunity that knocks at our door daily.

That's all for today.

Favorite food combo? I can't think of anything uncommon or unusual. I ate what the others commonly ate.

I can't count the number of numerous opportunities I have missed because I was scared of taking a risk. The one that still pains me the most till now is that Bitcoin, I was aware when that thing was dirt cheap and a couple of guys on an online forum I was moderating in 2014 were busy buying it but I was just looking at them.

Now some of those guys that kept their Bitcoin for long are living large, but I believe everything happens for a reason sha, sometimes the opportunities we miss are a blessing in disguise that's trying to save us from an unforeseen danger. Like the guy in your story that missed an opportunity to travel abroad, what if God was trying to save him from an unforeseen danger like an accident or accidental shooting while in the US?

I can't count many opportunities I've missed too on my end, though i heard about Bitcoin back then when it was cheap but i didn't take it as something useful since i wasn't having a mobile phone then to explore more about it,every opportunity we missed happens for a reason like you said.

You are right opportunities are always in front of us but sometimes we keep on ignoring them because we are afraid of what might be the outcome, we are afraid of taking a risk.

I think the reason why most people don't open their door is because they don't look at it as opportunity but just a scam. That's the usual mindset of people now a days. Btw, about the crazy food combination, I can't remember mine but I have this cousin, she was like 9 years old that time, she combined dried fish and milk powder haha

I wish I could go back in time to be the pizza man and just maybe take some more of his bitcoin…. As life continues so are opportunities, we just be alert to make do with what comes our way. Anyone that’s not having the intentions to join the digital world is really missing out now

I also wished I could also travel back in time to buy many Bitcoin and hold till it rises but that opportunity is gone so I just have to look for other opportunities to venture into since there are tons of them out there wandering about our door.
