5 Things That Happen When Will Meets Opportunity

 Dear Friends,

H

ave you struggled emotionally and mentally as a result of wanting something so bad without a way of getting it? Was there ever a situation you desperately wanted out of but just couldn't find a way to? Were you ever told to snap out of it! because that's just the way life is? If your answer is yes to any of the three you were well within your right to feel depressed and anxious. Chances are, you are one of the many persons who are full of will and purpose without the opportunity to move forward.

But what is this dynamic duo called will and opportunity anyway?

Will refers to the drive, determination, and motivation within an individual, while opportunity refers to the favorable circumstances or chances that present themselves. When these two elements are aligned, they have the power to drive individuals toward success in remarkable ways.

lack of direction when you have will but no opportunities

Upon graduating college I grappled with what I now identify as job search depression. There was so much I had to offer but no one was giving me a chance claiming a lack of experience. It was quite disheartening as I wondered how I’d gain experience if no one gave me the chance. Then, there always seemed to be a lucky few who despite their nonchalance knew “a friend of a friend” who basically handed them similar jobs. My question to myself at the time was why does the universe work backwards? People who have the opportunity rarely do anything with it and those who really had the will had limited to no opportunity. My will was certainly not meeting any opportunities. Exactly two years later I finally got my foot in the door and I just knew I could not afford to fail. My motivation to do quality work became so high and is still serving me today.

Something magical happens when unwavering determination meets a ripe opportunity. The combination can be explosive, leading to personal growth, progress, and achievement. Here are five things that can occur when will and opportunity intersect.

there is happiness when your determination has payed off

  Increased Determination

W

hen faced with a chance to turn one’s dreams into reality, individuals with strong will become even more resolute. Their determination is fueled by the possibility of success, which pushes them to work harder and smarter toward their goals. This unwavering focus and drive can be a formidable force, propelling them toward achievement.

Grit

"Grit" is the combination of passion and perseverance. Individuals who are resilient are able to keep moving forward in the face of setbacks or failures. When will and opportunity are aligned, they can foster grit and help individuals develop the mental toughness necessary to achieve their goals. The drive to succeed and the right circumstances can create a powerful force that propels individuals toward success.

 Increased Drive

W

hen will and opportunity collide, an individual becomes even more driven to succeed. The combination of a strong desire and the possibility of success creates a potent cocktail, propelling individuals even further in the direction of their goals. This increased drive can lead to more focused and efficient action, ultimately resulting in greater progress and achievement.

 Action-Driven Success

Action is what turns dreams into reality, and when will and opportunity are aligned, individuals are driven to take action. The combination of drive and favorable circumstances creates a powerful force that propels individuals toward their goals and ultimately to success. Effective action requires not just a strong will, but also the right opportunities to put that will into motion. When these two elements are aligned, individuals are empowered to turn their ideas and plans into reality, leading to significant progress and achievement.

  A Journey Towards Continued Growth and Progress

T

he alignment of will and opportunity is not something that can be achieved once and then forgotten. It requires continuous effort and focus to maintain. However, the reward of continued growth and progress makes it well worth it. Success is not a destination, but rather a journey. And when will and opportunity align, the results can be remarkable. Increased determination, grit, drive, action, and success—are all critical components of this journey toward growth and progress.

A

ligning will and opportunity is a key step toward unlocking one's full potential and achieving success. By harnessing the power of will and opportunity, individuals can turn their dreams into reality and embark on a journey of growth and progress.

If you find yourself feeling unable to move forward because of a lack of opportunities. Do not sit in silence or limit yourself to your immediate circle. Let your voice be heard. Leverage the use of social media to connect worldwide and put what makes you valuable on full exhibition for all to see. Sometimes a point in the right direction is all the opportunity we need.


Here are ten suggestions to increase the likelihood of you finding opportunities.


  1. Network: Build relationships with people in your industry, attend events and workshops, and engage in online forums to increase your visibility and make new connections.


  1. Get out of your comfort zone: Seek new experiences, travel, volunteer, or try a new hobby that expands your horizons and introduces you to new people.


  1. Build your skills: Stay updated on the latest industry trends and take courses or seek certifications that can help you become a more valuable candidate.


  1. Create your own opportunities: Start a side hustle, pursue freelance work, or launch your own business to make your own opportunities.


  1. Be open-minded: Keep an open mind to new opportunities, even if they are not exactly what you initially had in mind.


  1. Use online tools: Utilize online job boards, social media, and other resources to find opportunities that might be a good fit for you.


  1. Tap into your connections: Reach out to friends, family, or past colleagues for leads on potential opportunities.


  1. Be proactive: Take the initiative to seek out opportunities, reach out to potential employers, and sell yourself as a candidate.


  1. Be patient: Finding the right opportunity may take time, so be patient and persistent in your search.


  1. Stay positive: Maintain a positive outlook and focus on your strengths and skills, rather than dwelling on the lack of opportunities.

UNCOVERING THE ROOT CAUSE OF RELATIONSHIP FAILURE

  Dear Friends,  Have you ever heard the saying that "ignorance is bliss?" I am sure whoever came up with such a thing did not consider a context like this. In this regard, ignorance can be quite costly. When two people lack knowledge in their relationship, it can make it harder for them to get to know each other better and strengthen their bond. This inadvertently leads to misunderstandings, frustration, and even breakups. A lack of knowledge makes them unable to understand how to communicate their emotions or handle arguments.   When we lack the skills and knowledge needed to foster healthy, long-lasting relationships, it can be a major contributor to failed marriages and partnerships. It can also cause one partner to be manipulated or easily taken advantage of by the other partner. Not having these skills will make it extremely difficult to maintain a healthy relationship, even though you have made genuine connections. The following ways highlight how a lack of relatio...

Spirits Drawn to Darkness: The Link Between Negative Mental States and Spirit Attraction

Dear Friends M y siblings and I grew up in a yard situated in a very rural town on the island of Jamaica. Our land was very fruitful with citrus fruits, cashew trees, mangoes, and other goodies cultivated by my father. As a child, I loved our space and often explored the terrain with my older brothers. In my neck of the woods, when people die they are often buried on the land of the family home. My first memory of a tomb was one that sat on our property underneath a massive avocado pear tree. I can't say I fully remember what the story of that death was, or the person enclosed within, but it was there. The adjoining land to our property was also a graveyard. I can remember having scintillating playtime on all those graves. We would skip, hop, jump and even laze atop them. Awwwww the joys of childhood innocence because we were never scared!!   Fast forward a few years later it began to feel like everything that could go wrong went wrong. My mom had ...

Here's Why Your Manifestations Don't Work: A Guide to Kickstarting Your Success

  Dear Friends, S top asking the universe for things you aren't ready to be responsible for. This is the number-one reason your manifestations aren't working. Like a chef who neglects to properly prepare the ingredients, your desires won't come to life if you aren't ready to put in the work. Do not try to manifest things in your life just because you idealize someone else's situation. The universe knows your intentions aren't best suited for you as an individual. Let us try to get it right because the universe will not waste a perfectly good opportunity on someone who is not ready to handle what they are begging for. I f you should ask 10 people what they would need in order to be happy, rest assured that most don't even know. They will tell you what they think will make them happy, and that's often based on their pain points. I have had this happen to me, where I was so desperate for one thing that I swore if I received...
