Let Preparation meet Opportunity
Our topic today is based on Preparation and Opportunity. This two things relate and intertwine in one's life one way or the other... But first of all, I want to quickly define each term as they affect our lives to us.

Let's start with Preparation
- Preparation is the ability/zeal to get ready for a task like it's right in front of you even when there's no obvious sign of it... The doggedness and readiness to crush any spirit of procrastination that may serve as an obstacle in getting a task done.
Preparation is the assignment already carried out even when the instructor is yet to figure out the assignment to give... It's the while at which you get set for a task - the ability to deliver when you're summoned.
Characteristics
- Makes you think really fast
- Makes you come up with several concepts
- The readiness for any innovation
- Reserved man power for extra work in case it comes
- Following the path that leads to your goal
- Sticking to your one goal and going for it
- Making every moment count
- Creating awareness in every single place and making your skill known to people
- Being a general kind person but not a fool.
Many people see opportunity as something that has to come looking for you... No!
You have to go look for opportunities, but you must be prepared before attempting.
Because without preparing, and opportunity finds you, that goal you wish to attain will end up being impossible because you didn't plan for it, even if you're good.
Preparation really matters, even if you feel you're expert at what you do.
You can only be close to perfection after practicing and failing so many times...
Preparation also includes, thorough practice.

Now let's talk of Opportunity...
Opportunity is that advantage you get - a while or experience that favours you. It's a privilege of attaining what you want when you want.
Opportunity serves a purpose in ones life, it only depends on how its been used, it only comes occasionally and should be grabbed when it comes..
Just as I've said earlier, opportunity never come looking for you, you should prepare for it, then trail its path and you shall have it.
So the main thing I'm trying to make you understand is to let your preparation meet opportunity...
That's all, if preparation is made for everything you want to do, opportunity slides in softly, and it becomes very easy to grasp.
