“You can keep on knocking but you can’t come in!”
Is that what you will say when opportunity comes knocking at you door? I should hope not.. Because more often than not, you will only have one shot at success. So if you miss it, you may very well have missed your opportunity of a lifetime.

When Opportunity Comes Knocking, Will You Be Ready?

Yesterday, we discussed The Science of Getting Rich, Chapter 2 – There is a Science of Getting Rich. Today, we will take a look at how opportunity plays into this wealth formula in Chapter 3 – Is Opportunity Monopolized?.

Before we begin, lets recap what we have learned so far. First, I started Monday with the intro to this series by asking the question: Are Christians Allowed to be Rich? I got lots of positive feedback from many of my friends on my Facebook, but not much here on the blog. It’s okay. That just means you agree with all I said.. I hope :~)

Next, we went into Chapter 1 – The Right to Be Rich where we learned that it is our God-given Right to be Rich. Again, not much feedback on the blog. However, I think that most of you would agree that you have a right to pursue wealth. You have a right to accumulate much wealth, and you have a right to live the life you desire.

And then yesterday we discussed the actual Science of Getting Rich. If you are doing things in a certain way, even if it is by accident, you will become rich. Your lack of talent or money can’t prevent it from happening. The only thing that can prevent it is YOU!

As in the previous post, I will use text directly from the book. You will know the difference because the font will be red and in italics. If you do not have a copy of The Science of Getting Rich to follow along, you can purchase the book new or used for under five dollars at any online bookstore. This is simply one of those books you will want to read over.. and over.. and over again.

No person is kept poor because opportunity has been taken away from him – because other people have monopolized the wealth and put a fence around it. You may decide not to engage in certain kinds of business, but there are other channels open to you.

This is where network marketing is key. It is one of the few income earning opportunities that’s available to anyone. I have seen and written about many people who began marketing online with little and ended up with a fortune. I would like to use my coach and mentor, Larry Beacham, as an example.

Larry was on the verge of calling it quits around this time last year. He had just lost his job as a cable guy (Larry the Cable Guy.. haha), his wife was unemployed and he had five kids to feed. Larry’s opportunity came knocking that day. It came by way of an email message from an upline leader and very successful Internet Marketer, Sandra Essex. That email message changed his life forever. Her inspiring words are what took Larry from being broke and hopeless to a five or six-figure income earner in as little as six months. Larry does not disclose these figures too often to the public, but since I work directly with him, I will disclose it for you. Larry is doing really well in this industry.. Trust me :~) Watch Larry as he tell you his story.

Begin Doing Things a Certain Way.. Get The Marketing System!

I can go on naming many people I work with as either upline leaders or downline members who are doing the same. They have seized the opportunity and they have been rewarded for heeding the call. They did things a certain way and they rode the tide of opportunity. Are you doing the same?

There is an abundance of opportunity for the man who will go with the tide, instead of trying to swim against it.

Network Marketers, either as individuals or as a group, are not deprived of opportunity. Marketers are not being kept down by their leaders - by the powers of big business and the conglomerates. As a group, they are where they are because they do things in a certain way.

Now this may sound a bit repetitious, but you are not without wealth due to a shortness in the supply of riches. As we continue through this series you will soon realize that you can obtain the wealth you desire by simply doing what others are doing. This “certain way” will be revealed to you and you will begin to understand the right way to earning wealth.. the kind of wealth you always dreamed of earning!

Tomorrow we will discuss Chapter 4 – The First Principle In the Science of Getting Rich
