Work and Careers

Are you going to be asleep when opportunity knocks?

Listen, ol chum. Opportunity only knocks a few times during your life. Maybe three times, possibly four, maybe five or six. But here you are watching TV thinking, “Next year I’m going to apply for a new job so I can get away from my lousy boss, dumb coworkers and long commute!”

But we both know you won’t because if you did you would have done it by now. So turn the TV back on, friend, and watch the show for the 8,000th time. Maybe it will turn out different this time.

Opportunity only knocks a few times so make sure you are asleep or watching TV. Don’t get fooled.
