There are opportunities we may not have pursued or even recognized in our path that we see as missed opportunities. The fear of missing opportunities (FOMO) can be nerve-wracking or overwhelming, but analyzing and evaluating your missed opportunities to find out if they are worth pursuing is key. Not everything we pass up is an opportunity worth our attention, whether that was buying a real estate property, going up the corporate ladder, starting our own company, or saying something special to a family member. Whatever it is, whether we took the opportunity or we allowed it to slide by, it is not time to beat ourselves up. Sometimes we could be worried about missing something when we should be learning and thankful to take the next best step. Take time to own and respond in a way that helps you make progress. This is part of learning who you are and your values and recognizing that this is part of the human experience.

Join the conversation with your host Bettina as she talks about missed opportunities. We don't have missed opportunities. It is just another experience to learn how to respond appropriately next time. Learn how to be confident, competent, clear, and concise In your pursuit and be in your true self when responding to our situations.
