approach towards life::)
The Story of an EAGLE
The Eagle has the longest life-span of its
species. It can live upto 70 years.
But to reach this age, the eagle must make a
very difficult decision!
In its 40th year, the eagle's long and flexible
Talons can no longer grab a prey which serves
as food.
Its long and sharp beak becomes bent.
Its old-aged and heavy wings, due to their thick
feathers, stick to its chest and make it difficult
to fly.
Then, the eagle is left with only two options: DIE
or go through a painful process of CHANGE! This
process lasts for 150 days (5 months)
the process requires the eagle to fly to a
mountain top and sit on its nest. There the eagle
knocks its beak against a rock until it plucks it
out.
Then the eagle will wait for the new beak to
grow back after which it will pluck out its talons.
When its talons grow back, the eagle starts
plucking its old aged feathers.
And after this the eagle takes its famous flight of
rebirth and LIVES for 30 more years!!
Why is Change needed??? In order to survive and
live. We too have to start the change process.
We sometimes need to get rid of the unpleasant
old memories, negative habits and our fixed mind
set. Only Freed from the past burdens can we
take advantage of the present.
If an eagle can make a life saving and life
changing decision at the age of 40....why can't
we?
In order to take on a New Journey ahead, let go
of your negative old limiting beliefs. Open up
your mind and let yourself fly high like an eagle!
When it rains, all birds occupy shelter. But the
EAGLE avoids the rain by flying above the
clouds....problem is common to all but the
attitude to solve it makes the difference!
Don't be afraid of change...accept it gracefully!
