Don't look for an industry, look for the opportunity. Opportunity is a set of circumstances that makes it possible to do something. The middle class looks for jobs to solve their problems. You want to have problems. People at MIT and Harvard don't even know what opportunity means, they are looking for a job.

Here are 4 tips today to find your opportunity:

1. Look for opportunity: before you can see opportunity you have to look.

2. Be willing to read and research—you won't find opportunity without knowledge.

3. You have to go for it: you have to leave where you are comfortable.

4. Make contacts: everything you want, somebody else has it.

How to Find Your Dream Job—It's been said that having a job means just over broke. You have the wrong job then. You can work for someone else and get rich. You don't have to own the business to get rich. If you are broke, it's not a dream job. A dream job is not what you want to do. A dream job will pay you enough money to make money on this planet. You don't need to love it, you need money. Don't tell me how much you love your job; tell me how much paper you get. You need to get in the right vehicle. The right vehicle has 2 things for a dream job: 1) Margin—The 99 cent store will never pay enough because they have no margin. 2) Volume—Selling planes may have big margin but there is no volume in that. The right vehicle will also have the right driver, someone willing to accelerate and go. Don't move to an industry that is dying. The right vehicle will have horsepower and not just give you the job you want, but the life you want.

Never working again? Never answering to a boss or waking up for work? Some people think the answer is yes, or even think $1,000,000 is going to set them up financially to never worry about money again. The truth is, it's really not that much money.
