Thanks Colin for this piece. I agree with your view on grabbing opportunities and yet I often allow this belief to live in my unconscious mind without a speaking role. Articles like this help to make the topic explicit and by doing so they allow oneself to refocus on a key to personal success strategy that is both simple and elusive all at once.
In any event, best of luck in grabbing your opportunities. I must run now so as to grab my own opportunities. Cheers and talk soon.
