Preparation Meeting Opportunity Equals Luck.

This is the 5^th day that I’ve managed to get up out of my bed on what appears to be a bleak and dreary morning. The purpose of which is to get myself in peak condition so that I can feel great and live a long and healthy life.

I don’t think so!

The real reason is that I went up to London last week to see a client and while I was there I took a stroll around Oxford Street – as you do – and went into one of my favourite shops, Zara.

Big mistake – or was it?

I found this beautiful top, just the right colour, the right price and the fabric was divine. I chose my size and one above (just in case).

Went into the changing room to try it on and low and behold neither of them fitted!

I looked up and I didn’t recognise myself – I thought ‘whose is this strange body in the mirror?’

At that very moment I made a decision – I want that top! No more delaying the inevitable I have to get fit and slim.

For months I’ve been indulging myself, not getting any exercise and always with an excuse – I can’t do it today – I’ll start it tomorrow. I’ve got an early meeting etc. And then what happened? – An opportunity came up and I could not take it. You can be sure that if I had gone back to the store the blouse would not be waiting there for me to buy it.

How many times has that happened to you? You know the saying – preparation meeting opportunity equals luck.

Yes it’s true – we do create our own luck. For instance – how ready are you for when opportunities arise in your professional or business life so that you can accept a challenge or take the opportunity to shine when it arises? If you had a phone call from an agent to come along support Pink tonight would you be ready?

Or in your personal life are there areas where you keep putting things off until it’s too late. Mr or Miss Right asks you for help would you be in a position to take the next step? The moment has come and gone and there is no chance of going back.

If you are experiencing lack of luck right now then let me give you my Free Personal Performance M.O.T. It may help you discover where you are missing great opportunities in your life. It may not – you never know your luck!

Take good care of you – Jen BW x
