The Eagle's Perspective
Eagle’s Perspective
The eagle is renowned for its excellent eye sight estimated
to be four to eight times stronger than that of the average human. An eagle can
easily spot its prey from an altitude of 3.2km. The eye of an eagle provides it
with a vision unparalleled by that of other birds of the air; which makes it a
formidable predator in the animal kingdom.
The great inventor, Thomas Edison said: “From his neck down,
a man is worth a couple of dollars a day; from his neck up, he is worth anything
his brain can invent.”
Put slightly differently, your vision makes you travel
ahead of time psychologically. Your mental images are perpetuated with glimpses
of the future of your vision. Like the eagle that can both soar and spot its
prey from over 3.2km away, your vision positions you mentally ahead of others.
You can see the goal ahead with a curve view without disturbing too many who
stand in the light.
Having an eagle’s perspective stimulates your mentality to think
out of the box; and to challenge prevailing status quo. It fuels your
consciousness with the enthusiasm that your vision is an idea whose time has
come. A statement by business mogul Andrew Cosslett captures it this way, “In
every business I’ve worked in there’s been a lot of cost and value locked in
things that are deemed to be, “that’s the
way we do things around here.”
In other words, a visionary with an eagle’s perspective
readily abhor the orthodoxy. He stimulates change anywhere he finds himself!
His mantra is often founded on the biblical phrase, “If you can! All things are
possible for one who believes.” That is to say, the visionary believes in
possibilities; he views afar-off beyond the scope of the average man; and
aspires for positive change in his sphere of influence. It is often said: “They
shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they
shall walk, and not faint.”
The saying, “Without vision the people perish” is more a
matter of the eyes of the mind than good eyesight. Soar with an eagle’s
perspective that vision which you have in your mind today by running with it.

The Seed within the Seed
The Seed within the Seed “And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after it kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after it kind.” Engrained in every good seed is the potential to become a fruit. And this potential to finally become is fuelled by persistency. That is, as long as a good seed persist on the ground on which it was planted, absorbing moisture, heat, and other agronomic elements it will eventually sprout. In other words, persistency is highly germane to the fruition of a vision. It is the seed within the vision; and its importance is inexhaustible. Persistency is the kernel for growth; the fifth essence, so to speak, to every vision. Also, it tells how tough, rigid and resolved the visionary is at building his or her vision from the crust of mediocrity. Knute Rockne captures it this way when he remarked, “When the going gets tough, the tough get going.” You should see my amazement when I discovered that Napoleon Hill devoted an e...
The Full Corn in the Ear
The Full Corn in the Ear Years ago, so the story goes, a Jewish philosopher was trudging along the rock-strewn terrain of the country side; laden with severe accusations about his vision, and about to be killed. Surrounded by a mammoth crowd of cheerers and wailers, he exercised not many seconds to say a few words to both groups of onlookers. Fixing his eyes on them, he said: “Weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.” The philosopher saw afar-off, the light at the end of the tunnel, the reward of the course he borne while the environment was in frenzy and tumult. He did not allow his detractors to distract him from his resolve to actualize his vision. When your vision begins to take shape and form it will attract unsolicited cheerers and wailers, or rather sympathizers. However, of these two groups of people, the sympathizers are the most lethal to the success of your vision. Sympathy is contagious. And often times destructive to the pursuit of a...
