WHEN OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS, DO YOU ANSWER THE DOOR?

As much as I love to plan, set goals and strategize, sometimes the greatest advances are spontaneous, unplanned moments when opportunity is simply taken.

As business owners and entrepreneurs, we can get inside our heads so much that we miss those subtle and unique opportunities that come our way.

My goal for this coming year is to be more alert and sensitive to how I can help people (even people I might not normally work with) in a way that’s unexpected for both of us.

There’s a need for both planning and being prepared for the unexpected in business. Do you have a balance of both?
