The word Opportunity comes from the Latin "Opportunitas" which means "in front of a port", and it was used to refer to the moment of arriving at the port safely after having spent a long journey at sea, that is, when arriving at the port you had the opportunity. The opportunity is given for a certain period of time, in which there is a chance of obtaining a particular benefit, it is a moment or circumstance that is characterized by being convenient or conducive to performing an action that turns out to be very profitable, ingesting the aspect more positive of that situation and at the same time achieve improvement in any aspect of life, fulfilling the proposed objectives.
Generally, they are given for an instant in which the time factor plays a crucial role because in most cases the opportunities are presented in a very short period, they must be taken advantage of in order to avoid future regret, hence the saying " opportunities come only once in a lifetime ” (for example, a person is looking to buy a house and it turns out that he had the perfect opportunity to do so because he was presented with the house of his dreams at a good price, but it turns out that for some reason he left buy it and soon after it was sold), although the aforementioned saying sounds a bit drastic in reality it is so, because no matter how much that person is presented with the opportunity to buy another house, they will always think and long for the one they left happen.
It is always necessary to analyze and reflect on which is the alternative that best adapts to the needs in order to be alert to those opportunities that life gives us. It should be noted that they can come in two ways, in the first case when it is the subject involved who decides the action for their own convenience without persuasion from someone else (for example, I went on vacation with an extra bonus, this is my opportunity to travel) and there are also those in which the person who has the opportunity had some effect on someone else's action (for example, car prices dropped in price this is my chance to buy one).
And you cannot leave behind that action that someone performs in a wrong way in front of someone else and this gives them the opportunity to correct their error (for example, the teacher tells Luis: you did the math test wrong, I'll give you a second chance for you to get it right).
