Some people wait around for others to present a good idea – an entrepreneur opportunity. But have you ever noticed that when you’re alert and ‘switched on’ ideas come to you a mile a minute? And they’ve been there all along, you just didn’t see them.

Likewise, you can have a problem that plagues you for ages and suddenly, when you’re in the zone, the solution is right there staring you in the face. It’s also been there all along, just waiting for you to see it.

There’s no question that staying in the zone opens the doors to entrepreneur opportunity. So, observing what gets you in the zone is a worthwhile activity. It could be anything from hanging out with your spouse to gardening or playing with your cat. It might be stimulating conversation with associates or going to the gym.

Whatever those activities are, put them on a list and keep it handy. Sometimes, when you’re not in the zone, you won’t remember these little things. All you have to do is pull out your ‘in the zone’ list and start doing whatever strikes your fancy.

Life is rough when you’re pushing uphill. Achieving success is much easier when you’re in the zone.
