Chapter 10 — Finding the Opportunity

Opportunity usually doesn’t look like opportunity at first.

It shows up as a setback.
A delay.
A problem you didn’t ask for.

That’s why it’s easy to miss.

In real estate, a deal falling apart can feel like failure —
until it frees up time, focus, or a better option you wouldn’t have seen otherwise.

In leadership, a challenge can feel like a roadblock —
until it forces a conversation or decision that was overdue.

The opportunity isn’t always obvious in the moment.
It shows up after you slow down and stop reacting.

Ask yourself:
What is this making possible that wasn’t before?

That question changes everything.
