Welcome to the Daily Quote – I'm Andrew McGivern.Today's quote comes from Kyle Chandler, Emmy Award-winning actor best known for his role in "Friday Night Lights."He said:"Opportunity does not knock, it presents itself when you beat down the door."Think about the lie we've all been told: "Opportunity knocks."Just wait. Be patient. Be ready. And when opportunity gently knocks on your door, you'll be there to answer it.Chandler's calling that out. Opportunity doesn't knock. It doesn't politely wait for you to notice it. It doesn't come looking for you.You have to go find it. And when you find it, you have to beat down the door.Not ask nicely. Not wait your turn. Beat down the door.This isn't about being aggressive or rude. It's about being relentless. It's about refusing to wait for permission. It's about taking action so forceful that opportunity has no choice but to present itself.Most people wait. They polish their resume and wait for the perfect job posting. They practice their pitch and wait for the perfect investor. They develop their skills and wait for someone to notice.But the people who succeed? They don't wait. They reach out to the hiring manager directly. They show up at the investor's office. They create their own platform instead of waiting to be chosen.They beat down the door.Chandler didn't become a successful actor by waiting for opportunities to knock. He knocked down doors. He auditioned relentlessly. He took roles others passed on. He created his own opportunities through force of will.So here's the question: What opportunity are you waiting to knock? And what would happen if you stopped waiting and started beating down the door?Because opportunity isn't coming to find you. You have to go create it.That's it for today.
