I would like to share in this post a moral story.
There lived a crow on a tree top. Everyday he used to watch with utter wonder the acts of an eagle.The eagle had a nest high up on a mountain. He used to swoop down from there to get hold of a lamb and fly up again and all in one go.
The crow was amazed by the feat of the eagle.One day he was so excited that he wanted to imitate the eagle. So up he flew as high as he could. From there he began to swoop down. He came down and down. But alas, he could not control himself. He crashed on the ground and broke his beak.
When I find it, I thought it's a kind of demotivating story because it doesn't motivate people to dream big. Then I tried to think more about it and I realized that it's maybe useful anyway.
For example most of us want to be rich. But, if we think about getting rich very fast and invest in a scam, we may lose our money and hurt ourselves even more.
So, the positive side maybe is :
To not be in in hurry, to not compare ourselves to others and to improve step by step.
What do you think about the story ?
Share your opinion about it and if you know a similar story, please describe it in the comments or in a post in our community.
There is no impossible in this world.
But, the larger the goal, the more factors are needed for its implementation. It is often said that the main thing is to want and believe that everything will work out - then everything will work out.
I think that there is something more, something transitional, between faith and opportunity. And this, in my opinion, maybe something - training or something else.
Very interesting thoughts. I like to think that way as well. Nice philosophy.
Most people try to be rich quickly and this is not possible
For sure, we have to work hard for it.
I guess this story is about safety. When you are going to do something first time and this thing is dangerous, just prevent possible damage.
Interesting point of view.
This story makes sense when I was 20 years old I wanted to have lots of money I broke my nose.
I think being rich alone doesn't make you happy. My dream would be not to be rich but to drive my motorhome to North Cape Norway.
I am 50 years old so I think today and learn more English with you that makes me happy.
Many thanks to everyone
