The hunting hunter
These are my reflections as I pondered on the wonders of God’s creations.
1) On Eagle’s Wings:
An eagle harnesses updrafts and soars freely in the sky. Its strong wings bear its weight as it glides freely in its hunt. A leader who 'fights fire' is one who flap his/her wings incessantly, ignoring the benefits of updrafts. A wise leader is one that takes off when he/she spots an updraft.
2) Bird Eye View:
Being high up offers a bird eye view. A leader who focuses too much on details may miss the big picture. Having a bird eye view also allow the leader to choose wisely from the buffet that is spread out. You can’t be eating every thing. Not everyone can stomach that, especially one who is chasing multiple awards and programmes.
3) Piercing Clarity:
An eagle is able to exercise piercing clarity in identifing and locating its target. It is the wisdom to say no to opportunities that may distract you from your goals. An eagle is able to judge the speed, the distance and direction it has to cover to grasp its target from the air. It is that clear!
4) The Dive, The Hunt:
Once committed, the eagle is willing to take that plunge, to dive from the sky, locking its tendons and ready itself to strike with precision. It does not hesitate. Do we have the discipline and commitment to take the dip once we decided to?
