Lesson from Kite

1. The Height Of The Kite Determines The Sight

In everything you do choose to take the eagle view. Look down on your circumstances and don’t ever allow yourself to suffer ‘under the circumstances’. Circumstances were never made to be ‘under’. They were created to be ‘above’. Think of the kite when the pressure rises. Stand back from your circumstances and gain a fresh perspective. Look at it creatively by brainstorming until you come up with an answer to solve the problem. Turn your disadvantage into an advantage. Problems were created to be solved.

2. Don’t Let Go

Hang on tight to your dream. Don’t let it go. Stay focussed on your goals. They are the string and the kite is your dream. Don’t pass it to another, because they won’t have the same vision that you have. Share the moment with them, but don’t let go of your indiviudal dream.

3. Choose Your Space Well

Set yourself up for a win by positioning yourself correctly. Research is vital at this point. Don’t just plunge ahead. Get the facts and stick with them.Be a detective and learn to make investigation your key weapon for success. Ask questions. Delve deep. Get input. Surround yourself with wise counsellors. Be one of the informed so that you can make successful decisions.

4. Prepare For The Unexpected

Have a contingency plan in place. Develop a range of income sources. In your specialisation diversify. Those who plan for the unexpected will not be surprised. They’ll be ready.

This is why we don’t leave things to the last moment and by doing so we are ever ready to succeed.

ANY ENTERPRISE IS BUILT BY WISE PLANNING

Simple, yet powerful principles learnt that day when the kite got away and as we spent the rest of the day unravelling the disaster.

The secret though is to always seek to learn from the mistakes that are made along the way. They can, at times, be your greatest teacher, if you are willing to learn.

Motivational Quote: Without problems there would never be a need for solutions, and without mistakes there would never be a reason for lessons learnt.
