The health of your financial future depends on being prepared for opportunities, especially when it comes to saving to invest. When you focus on saving to invest, you may not always know what investment opportunity will come along, but having the cash on hand ready to go is a huge advantage when the opportunity does come.

By focusing on specific types of investments, you can prepare yourself by educating yourself through reading, listening, workshops, seminars, etc. so when the time is right, you’re ready! There are an endless variety of investment vehicles out there, that’s why focusing on the specific types that interest you is an important key factor when preparing for the opportunities you’re envisioning.

“It is not often that a man can make opportunities for himself. But he can put himself in such shape that when or if the opportunities come he is ready.”
― Theodore Roosevelt

Preparing for opportunities takes a combination of many things which include, self discipline, delayed gratification and sacrifice, good money habits, a positive mental attitude and the ability to embrace change just to name a few. Don’t sell yourself short by telling yourself that you don’t have what it takes to seize the right opportunity. Start with small manageable steps and the rest will follow.

Without those things, preparation for financial opportunities will be difficult and without preparation you risk the chance of missing them. Belief in yourself and belief in your dream becomes strengthened through preparation. Just remember that success comes at the crossroads where preparation and opportunity meet. So make sure you’re ready for when that time comes!
