 Opportunity LostPublished Date: 2008-05-12 14:57:53 WorkOnInternet.com
But not everybody is happy. Every few days, somebody writes to the Letters to the Editor column of The West Australian complaining that not everybody benefits - and in particular, that the boom is passing them by. A few days ago, somebody wrote that public servants aren't getting their fair share of the booming economy. Now I'm not in any way suggesting that she is wrong. In fact, she's right. But it does indicate a curious way of thinking. She thinks a booming economy creates wealth. It doesn't. It creates the OPPORTUNITY for wealth. And that's a different thing altogether. The economy is booming. Property prices are booming. The Internet is booming. All true. And all incredible opportunities for massive success ... IF you're willing to do what it takes. Those who grasp the opportunity wisely will succeed in a big way. Those who stay on the sidelines might get lucky. And those who complain about everybody else's success will fail ... in a big way. Carpe diem! (Latin for "Fish bait" ... err, I mean, "Seize the day").
