Opportunity is a wonderful thing. Like a thief, you came without a trace, but when you left, you suffered heavy losses.

Opportunities can be created. After hard work, good opportunities will suddenly appear, which is also a qualitative leap after the ability has accumulated to a certain extent. Opportunity doesn't like lazy people and doesn't appreciate speculators. Opportunities are always accompanied by hardworking people, pioneering people, persistent people and innovative people. So, let's be an opportunity creator, seize the opportunity, seize the throat of fate and create our own life!

Of course, opportunities are sometimes not what we think. A priest has devoted himself to God since he was a child. He is very pious. One day, his city was flooded. A man rushed into the church and told him that there was going to be a flood. Act quickly! He said, God will help me. Then the flood came and didn't reach his waist. A lifeguard came in and said, come with me and I'll get you out. The priest said, no, God will help me. Later, the flood became worse, and he had to hold the cross on the roof. At this moment, a policeman said, get on the assault boat quickly. The priest said, God will help me. Later, he drowned. When he saw God, he asked God, how pious I am, why don't you help me? God said, what can I do for you? I'll send three people to save you, but you won't leave. Shall I send an aircraft carrier to pick you up?

We often complain about opportunities, but we don't know that opportunities have passed. He doesn't have to be surprised. Sometimes opportunities may be covered with failure and frustration.

1955, Larry Page, a 25-year-old doctoral student in the computer science department of Stanford University, and sergey brin, a classmate one year younger than him, developed a software called BackRub in the laboratory. Very popular, they recommended to Yahoo, Infoseek and other international search engine websites, but they were driven out by children's things. The two eventually founded a search engine company, which gave birth to Google, the world's largest search engine overlord.

If it hadn't been for that failure, they wouldn't have achieved so much today. Of course, it is also closely related to their later efforts.

A man wanted to eat steamed fish, so he asked his servant to buy fish to cook. As a result, at noon, the servant didn't come to invite him to dinner. When he went to the kitchen, the servant was sighing at the fish and said, master, I have picked the smallest fish in the vegetable market, but there is still no pot to steam it. Therefore, the host didn't eat steamed fish.

In this era of fierce competition, if you want to survive and develop better, you have to endure more or less pain, but the real pain is that when a big "fish" is favored or comes, you can't grasp it because of your shallow knowledge and mediocre talent. A great man once said, "Opportunities only favor prepared minds", so whether you like it or not, you should always maintain a high sense of crisis. Only by learning more knowledge and cultivating more skills can we come up with ways to deal with opportunities in the competition, so as not to watch them slip away from our staring eyes.

Yes, opportunity is like a fish, a fish whose size no one can predict. We might as well expand our "pot" as much as possible and make it bigger, so that small fish will not let go when they come, and big fish can cope when they come.
