Hello World!

This is ina, and I'm here to show you how to live your best life through entrepreneurship.

Are you ready for this?

Today I want to talk to you about that key to success that nobody else is talking about.

Everyone is talking about how hard you have to work, how you have to have the right connections,

how you have to put in the time, how you have to be consistent out in social media.

Now all these things may be true, but there is one key factor that if you do not pay attention

to it, if you do not take advantage of, you're not going to succeed to the levels that you

could.

Everybody can have a small business, and you can keep it as small as you want.

But this particular factor is what is going to take you to the next level.

Are you ready to hear it?

Let's get started.

The truth of the matter is that you have to see opportunities and seize them.

I know that sounds like out of a fortune cookie.

I know that sounds trivial.

I know that sounds like "Duh!

Of course I would take care of opportunities that presented to me."

Here's the problem with that, though: When opportunities present themselves, they

hardly ever (I'm not going to say never), but they hardly ever have a sign that says

"This is a good opportunity.

You must take me in order to succeed."

Nobody is going to tell you which opportunity is going to pan out, and in what way.

Nobody can do that.

So all you can do is keep taking advantage of opportunities.

Today I wanted to talk about someone who's doing this right.

Who seized opportunity after opportunity and she ended up being an incredible success.

Her name is Jenna Carelli.

She's a business strategist and marketer with a team of 10 people under her, and she serves

thousands of people on her Facebook page with her content.

How she made it there was not just by working alone in her laptop and doing her thing, and

just hoping things worked out.

Things for her happened in a very gradual way, that meant she had to look out for opportunities

and say yes to them, one by one, without anybody telling her that it would ever pan out for

her.

The way it happened for her is the way it could have happened to any of us.

She started out at a job in corporate, just like a lot of us, just working through it,

working through the grind, doing her thing.

I'm not saying she hated her job, she was good at it, she did what she had to do, that

was her life.

So she used to attend this gym to do crossfit, and people knew she was a nutrition nut, it's

just something she liked to do, it's something she gave people advice about.

The owner of her gym approached her and said "hey, would you mind teaching people about

nutrition?"

So she developed these challenges, and she ended up developing 20 challenges for other

gyms in the area.

I want to stop right here and tell you: she could have just said now.

She could have said "I'm too busy, I don't have the time, that's going to take a lot

of work."

She could have said all those things, but she didn't.

She said "yes, I will do it, and I will make it work."

She was scared out of her mind, she had never ran a challenge before.

Nutrition was just something she liked to do.

She went for it, and ended up being something she was really passionate about.

She started to see results in people, she started to see how it was affecting her community

the fact that she was doing this, and it gave her life.

So, based on that, which she kept as a side hustle while she was still working full time,

she developed a 5 year plan with her husband.

"Eventually I will quit my job and devote my time to this."

But she was in the same headspace as a lot of us are: "I don't want to quit the security

of my job, what if my side hustle fails?"

All of these fears started to flood her mind, so she started to develop a plan.

Then, she happened to get pregnant, and during that process she decided "OK, maybe this is

my chance to stay at home with my kid, and actually make something happen in my business."

That story sounds very familiar to me.

And that's how she ended up doing this full time.

I just want you to think about: if she had never told anybody that she liked nutrition.

If she had never gone to the gym to do crossfit.

If she had said No to all those things, she wouldn't have gotten to where she is now.

So a lot of credit to Jenna for making from where she was, working a corporate job just

like all of us, thinking "That's where I'm gonna get my pension" to turning it into something

beautiful that she loves, helping a lot of people, doing something she's truly passionate

about, and being her own boss.

What you can do about right now is to stop making excuses.

Now I could tell you "Yes, you can do it!" and then you can tell me "But I can't 'cause

I don't have time" (Sorry that's how you came out)

"I don't have time.

I don't have the money for it."

And you know what?

Those excuses are big "shut-uppers."

Right?

'Cause they shut me up.

I'm like "Fine, I don't know your situation.

I really don't know how much time you have, and I don't know how much money you have."

Right?

So that puts me in my place.

Those excuses put me in my place.

They make me feel like "OK, fine, I guess I can't really help you."

OR, I can ignore your said that, and I can just tell you "Just do it."

When you see an opportunity, I want you to take it.

And now that you've listened to this episode, you're going to start seeing opportunities

everywhere.

Something that I love telling people, and I'm quoting Merel Kriegsman, she's a master

copywriter out there, I love this quote: "What would you do today if you had 10 times

more courage?"

Once you start going, you'll realize that time and money are not as big an issue as

you think they are.

And if they are, you will figure it out.

Because that's what successful people do.

And to help you with that, I have a gift for you.

You're going to love this one because it's super super practical.

I've put together a list of places where you can find opportunities.

So you don't even have to wait for someone to come hand it to you, there is no such thing

as the sign that says "Take me, I'm the opportunity you've been waiting for."

You can fabricate them.

So I'm going to give you a list of places online where you can go and seek out these

opportunities.

It's super beefy.

It's super practical.

And that's where you can get started doing what you love.

So, go and grab it at inacoveney.com/4 And once you run through it, I want you to

come back and put in comments which opportunity you found the most helpful, which one really

panned out, which one you hadn't thought about before.

Or just tell me what you thought of this episode.

Either one works.

I hope you found this helpful.

Goodbye World, I'll see you next time.

As U.S. Embassy moves to Jerusalem and Gaza rages, where is Trump's promised peace plan? - Duration: 4:24.

(Commentary) As U.S. Embassy moves to Jerusalem and Gaza rages, where is Trump's promised peace plan?

A day after the historic opening of the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem, residents woke on Tuesday to a new reality in the contested city. Monday's opening amid bloodshed in Gaza has fuelled global concern that US policies are roiling the region.

Rather than 'the ultimate deal' in the Middle East, new violence erupts between Israelis and Palestinians at a border fence in Gaza: Our view

To Donald Trump, peace between Israelis and Palestinians would be "the ultimate deal."

"I'm going to give it a shot," then-candidate Trump said in 2016 of achieving a historic agreement in the Middle East. "It would be so great."

Yes, it would be. But more than a year into his presidency, there's still no Trump peace plan. Rather, there's a new eruption of violence.

Young Palestinians fueled by rage and despair threw themselves against a border fence separating Gaza from Israel, leaving at least 60 of them dead and 2,700 injured Monday as American and Israeli officials celebrated the move of the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

Americans chose Trump in part because he vowed to break with orthodoxy on dealing with trade and intractable foreign policy problems. His decision to relocate the U.S. Embassy fit neatly within this new doctrine. Past presidents made the same promise. "This president delivered," Jared Kushner, his son-in-law and senior adviser on Middle East peace, said during Monday's festivities.

True enough. But Trump also promised to deliver a detailed blueprint for guiding Israelis and Palestinians toward reconciliation. The embassy move, a step long coveted by Israel, could have been a carrot to facilitate peace.

Now that carrot has been given away. Palestinians see it as betrayal — a flashing indicator that the United States has chosen sides and can no longer serve as an honest, impartial broker of peace in the region. Trump's promise to be "sort of a neutral guy" has disintegrated, and Palestinian leaders are no longer talking with him.

Trump's promised deal is being crafted not by career diplomats but by three novices to such complexity: Kushner, who recently lost his top-secret security clearance; Jason Greenblatt, special representative for international negotiations and an ex-Trump Organization chief legal officer; and David Friedman, a bankruptcy lawyer named U.S. ambassador to Israel.

Where previous presidents offered broad frameworks for Middle East peace so as not to immediately alienate one side or the other, Trump's team argues for a series of specific steps to move parties toward resolutions that can include a two-state solution. If what happened Monday is any indication, prospects for such a solution are growing ever more distant.

In densely populated Gaza, where two-thirds of the nearly 2 million people are younger than 25 and joblessness is 44%, misery is rampant. Young people, urged on by a failing Hamas government backed by Iran, are being gunned down at the border by Israeli security troops.

Trump's Middle East policy has had all the subtlety of swatting a hornets' nest with a stick. If he truly has a plan for peace, now would be a good time to see it.
