Experience. Travel. Listening to stories. Those are three things that can change your perspective about life, people, and opportunity.
The combination of experience, travel, and listening to stories has changed my perspective about people, and about finding opportunity in particular.

But as I’ve experienced more, traveled more, and listened to more stories from people who don’t necessarily think like me, I discovered there’s a strange place where opportunity hides:
