THE EAGLE RIDES THE STORM
|
|
How do most birds respond to a storm? Typically they hide or find shelter. What does the eagle do?Does it react after the storm has hit? No, the eagle anticipates the storm well in advance. Does the eagle look for a place to hide? No, it flies to a high point, where it adjusts its wings to be lifted by the storm. And there soars above all the other birds and above the storm.

This week I invite you to reflect on the following:
- Are you in the midst of a storm in your business or personal life? If so, can you find a way to soar above it?
- Are you looking for creative solutions for an approaching storm or major change in your life?
- What can you do to prepare for the storm?
- What can you do to navigate through the storm?
- Would you make use of an independent source, such as a mentor, teacher, or coach?
I regularly coach persons and assist them in anticipating and dealing with the storms in their lives and businesses. As an experienced business advisor and personal coach, I am an objective resource to turn storms into opportunities. I am available to assist you and look forward to hearing from you. Invest in yourself. You are worth it. Just pick up the phone.
