The Opportunity Clock Buzzed…Again!

There are some mornings I absolutely dread the alarm clock. Then I heard a saying by one of my favorite motivational speakers, Mr. Zig Ziglar. Mr. Ziglar calls the alarm clock the “opportunity clock”. Because when you realize that buzzer means you get another day to make a difference, to be a difference, to kiss your kids, to love your husband, and impact the world, the buzzer is no longer “dreadful”. It is announcing your opportunity to make something happen!
My opportunity clock buzzed this morning announcing my birthday! Yaaaaay me! I am excited about my year. Birthdays, anniversaries and holidays always help us remember and reflect. How did I do this year? Am I the same weight? Did I gain? Do I still have same to-do lists? Sometimes it can be a never-ending cycle! But I encourage you today. When your opportunity clock buzzes, don’t shudder at the sound. That means you get another day and another opportunity to reach that goal, clear the list and do something extraordinary!
Why not celebrate with me? Do you need to reset your clock? Tell me what you are choosing to do with your new opportunity?
