We only get two guarantees: opportunity and adversity. You have a lot of opportunity in front of you and a lot of adversity. We know that much.
What we don’t know is when they’re coming, what they will look like, or which is which. It’s easy to mistake one for the other. The hardest adversity loves to hide behind the appearance of opportunity. The biggest opportunities often disguise themselves as adversity.
You know they’re coming. Don’t even think about waking up in the future surprised that life delivered them to your doorstep. Do not be slow to opportunity and broken by adversity. Be prepared to act with confidence and strengthened by the experience.
When opportunity and adversity arrive, there is only one question: are you good enough?
Do the work.
