Late in the book, you'll find yourself being familiar with this concept...
"It was an open road when the road seemed closed."
That is to say that often times we set up our own barriers (negative self-talk) to entry, when instead there are actually hidden opportunities.
However, what of the commandment of entry? How do you know when a road of opportunity genuinely violates the commandment of entry? Or maybe instead there are still actual opportunities left, an open road, when at first it seemed closed?
For those of you who are familiar with my introduction, you'll know that I have a dating background. I guess you could say my expertise lies in the realm of dating. So if I were to create a product or content website for dating advice, it would be in a heavily congested market place, where there are already a lot of well established products and services catering to the same need.
So do I wonder if it's an open road in disguise, when at first glance it seems like a road that is closed? "It's already been done?" Or do I take my chances at exceptionalism and do it all BETTER?
Hmmm...
