Opportunities around you, grab It

Opportunities above the risk, rather than risk above opportunities

In Australia, there is a famous bakery called the Old Style Bread Center. One day, an employee resigned and opened his own shop name Bakers Delight. During that period supermarket has force many bakeries shut down, but Roger Gillespie, the employee that resign, open stores with the ideas products fresh from the oven. As the result, the tradition idea get good response and Bakers Delight outlets are now mushrooming in the country kangaroo.

So if you know Facebook, Dell and Bakers Delight please explored how Mark Zuckerberg built Facebook, how Michael Dell built Dell Inc  and how Roger Gillespie expand Bakers Delight in which the products at first already exists on the market, then what do you doubt to build a business? Opportunity is all around you, go and grab it, because think a thousand times to do business is not better than one practice. Do not always calculate the risk of doing business. You may not always be lucky, sometimes will also face losing, but we must always "learn how to win, learn how to lose". Uncertainty is something that we can not avoid doing business, but the most important thing is the resilience and maturity of experience, and always willing to learn from mistakes, and always learn from the market.

Businesses need a recklessness, because you are definitely not Frederick Smith who inherited $4 Million when just returned from military service in Vietnam. With the money that legacy, Smith practiced his idea to establish a firm delivery goods quickly, even overnight, to various destinations named Federal Express. There were only two possibilities can occur either loss of heritage or success. It turned out, five years later his wealth become $2.1 Billion. 

Recklessness is what's hard, often heard my friends said a lot of theorizes, read thousands of books, master the world famous matrices, but do not have the boldness to practice. They mostly put risk above the opportunity. 

For a legacy much like a Smith, be thankful for having the ability and possibility to build a business Federal Express instead of some of us with nothing but recklessness. However, know that the recklessness is precisely our greatest capital in starting a business. Always practiced, rather than thinking, opportunities always around you. To be success, start action differently.
