I recently ran across
this. Although the author is unknown to me, it is still something to
think about. As you read this does it resonate with you? Are you
flapping your wings so hard, hitting your head against the wall and
going nowhere? Read on. Your answer. your resolution, your breakthrough
is sooooo simple!
Buzzard
If you put a buzzard in a pen that is 6 feet by 8 feet and is entirely
open at the top, the bird, in spite of its ability to fly, will be an
absolute prisoner. The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight
from the ground with a run of 10 to 12 feet. Without space to run, as is
its habit, it will not even attempt to fly, but will remain a prisoner
for life in a small jail with no top.
BAT
The ordinary bat that flies around at night, a remarkably nimble
creature in the air, cannot take off from a level place. If it is placed
on the floor or flat ground, all it can do is shuffle about helplessly
and, no doubt, painfully, until it reaches some slight elevation from
which it can throw itself into the air. Then, at once, it takes off like
a flash.
BUMBLEBEE
A bumblebee, if dropped into an open tumbler, will be there until it
dies, unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the
top, but persists in trying to find some way out through the sides near
the bottom. It will seek a way where none exists, until it completely
destroys itself.
PEOPLE
In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat, and
the bumblebee. They are struggling about with all their problems and
frustrations, not ever realizing that all they have to do is look up.
Wow! Do you remember the definition of insanity? Doing the same thing
over and over and expecting a different result! Look around, look up …
get outside your box. Get outside your comfort zone. Only YOU are
blocking your success. You won’t find your solution staying right where
you are. You have to move. What does it take to move? Change. Change
your point of view. Change what you are doing. Change how you are
thinking. Your breakthrough is yours for the taking! So take it!
You are what you believe. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!
