Grab them while you can

Each day brings new opportunities, more ways to have fun, grow and learn.

But these opportunities are often fleeting, appearing and disappearing rapidly.

Often we shy away from new things, because we have failed or been hurt in the past.

But we should see these past events as an opportunity to learn and grow, rather than as a negative thing that hurt us.

It is natural not to want to try something again if it didn't work out last time, but if we do not try again, how do we know if we can succeed second time around.

If we do not challenge ourselves, embrace change, then we will never move forward into new and exciting chapters of our lives.

So if one of these fleeting opportunities comes your way, instead of being afraid, give it a go.

There may not be anything to lose, but plenty to gain.
