The Traits of Opportunity Makers
We all want opportunity.
Whether for ourselves or someone close to us, opportunities are a pretty
universal desire. Kare
Andersen recently gave a TED talk where she called on people to
remember the three traits of opportunity makers: opportunity-makers keep honing
their top strength and they become pattern seekers; they get involved in
different worlds than their worlds so they’re trusted and they can see those
patterns; they communicate to connect around sweet spots of shared
interest. There is a lot going on in our
world. A mix of positive and negative. We all should be aware of how we can not only
find opportunities for ourselves, but also make opportunities for those around
us. In doing so, we can start spreading
positive change.
