Subject: Create Opportunities, Be Enterprising

Dear Friend


Have you ever wondered what it truly means to be enterprising?


Famous business author Jim Rohn describes it beautifully:


An enterprising person is one who comes across a pile of scrap metal and sees the making of a wonderful sculpture. An enterprising person is one who drives through an old decrepit part of town and sees a new housing development. An enterprising person is one who sees opportunity in all areas of life.


Being enterprising means keeping your eyes open and your mind active. It’s about being skilled, confident, creative, and disciplined enough to seize opportunities—no matter the challenges around you.


An enterprising attitude encourages action and preparation:

  • Do your homework.

  • Research.

  • Be resourceful.

Enterprising people see the future in the present. They find ways to thrive, not just survive. They don’t wait for opportunities—they create them.


The Two Essentials of Enterprise

  1. Creativity:
    Creativity allows you to see the potential in the world around you. It’s about viewing things differently and shaping opportunities to your advantage.

  2. Courage:
    Courage empowers you to act on your ideas, even when it means going against the crowd or stepping outside your comfort zone.

More Than Money

Being enterprising isn’t just about making money. It’s about valuing yourself enough to pursue opportunities that improve your future. When you take bold steps, you build:

  • Confidence

  • Courage

  • Creativity

  • Self-worth

So, how enterprising can you be this week? Keep your eyes open, stay creative, and don’t hold back!


Go for it!


Shalom
