Eagle as GURU

Eagles were the symbol of almost all conquerors, be it Caesar or Hitler the reason is!!
Read on.....Inspiration from the "7 Principles of an Eagle" Author Dr. Myles Monroe:
• 1. Eagles though a part of bird family fly
alone at a high altitude and not with
sparrows or mix with other smaller birds
like geese.
• Birds of a feather flock together. But No
other bird goes to the height of the eagle.
• Remember Eagles fly with Eagles and not
with crows or sparrows
Eagles have strong vision, which focuses up to 5 kilometers from the air.
When an eagle sites prey- even a rodent from this distance, he narrows
his focus on it and sets out to get it. No matter the obstacle, the eagle will
not move his focus from the prey until he grabs it.
Have a vision and remain focused no matter what the obstacle til you reach your
goal. Concentrate on your goal with unwavering focus till you have achieved it.
That is the manta for success
• Choose your reference points, peers
carefully.
• Choose them which will leverage and bring
out your potential.
• Can you be a part of the crowd and still soar
high on your strength.
• Can be excellent in the crowd of average or
above average.
Eagles do not eat dead things. He feeds on fresh prey.
Vultures eat dead animals but not eagles.
Believe on your own efforts rather than on luck
destiny or others' efforts
• The Eagle is the only bird that loves the storm.
When clouds gather, the eagles get excited. The eagle
uses the wings of the storm to rise and is pushed up
higher. Once it finds the wing of the storm, the eagle
stops flapping and uses the pressure of the raging
storm to soar the clouds and glide. This gives the
eagle an opportunity to rest its wings. In the meantime
all the other birds hide in the leaves and branches of
the trees
We can use the storms of our lives (obstacles, trouble, etc) to rise
to greater heights. Achievers relish challenges and use the
opportunity to excel and prove themselves.
• The Eagle tests before it trusts. When a female eagle meets
a male and they want to mate, she flies down to earth with the
male pursuing her and she picks a twig. She flies back into the
air with the male still pursuing her.
• Once she has reached a height high enough for her, she lets
the twig fall to the ground and watches it as it falls. The male
chases after the twig. The faster it falls, the faster he chases
until he reaches it and has to catch it before it falls to the
ground, then bring it back to the female eagle.
• The female eagle grabs the twig and flies to a much higher
altitude pursued by the male until she perceives it high enough,
and then drops the twig for the male to chase.
• This goes on for hours, with the height
increasing until the female eagle is assured that
the male eagle has mastered the art of picking
the twig which shows commitment, then and
only then, will she allow him to mate with her!
We need to test before we trust. Whether in private life
or in business, one should test commitment of people
intended for partnership
• Eagles prepare for training. When about to lay eggs, the
female and male eagle identify a place very high on a cliff
where no predators can reach; the male flies to earth and at
first, picks thorns and lays them on the crevice of the cliff, then
flies to earth again to collect twigs which he lays in the intended
nest. Then he picks thorns and lays them on top of the twigs.
• The weight of the eaglets result in the thorn picking them up
making them uncomfortable. Thus the eaglets are forced to
leave the comfortable nest and learn to fly.
The people who love us do not let us languish in sloth but push us hard to grow
and prosper. Even in their seemingly bad actions they have good intentions for
us. The parental/mentors insistence on self independence may sound harsh
but it develops self confidence to face harsh realities, learn new skills and
survive.
When the Eagle grows old, his feathers become weak and cannot take him as fast
as he should. When he feels weak and about to die, he retires to a place far away
in the rocks. While there, he plucks out every feather on his body until he is
completely bare. He stays in this hiding place until he has grown new feathers,
then he can come out.
No Matter how painful or uncomfortable it is we need to leave the
old ways, habits , methods to survive or grow. People who cannot
change and want to adhere to the old system will become extinct
Learn Commitment and Excellence from Eagles
