Missing Out on the Opportunity of a Lifetime
If you’ve ever missed a wonderful opportunity and felt like your dreams had been shattered, it might help you to know that opportunities are not always what they appear to be.

I like Simon, one of three judges on American Idol. I find his feedback refreshingly honest. And while his words startle me with their ego wounding potential, the traditional feel-good, let-you-down-easy, sugar-coated feedback is not much of a gift. It’s hard to tell someone they’re not good enough and their dreams are not going to happen, at least in this venue. But not telling them is no gift either. Some contestants rise to the challenges he throws at them. Some don’t. And, some can’t. Which one are you?
