My thought for people, who use internet at least once in a day, There used to be a time, if we want to know something we used to run to a library or to a friend to borrow a book (either we were not able to afford or buying it was a waste; one time use). But, now we can use Internet to search for information and get umpteen results… Are we using the best from Internet?

In the north, there are many caves, we'll travel through them.
It'll be safer. We go!
This cave leads to the "Valley of the Five Lions".
The Afghan King was asked to send 500 of his warriors into battle.
He sent only five. His greatest five, and they won.
He said, it's better to send five lions than 500 sheep.

Rambo : I think the King was lucky.
Not sure if you guys have observed this conversation in the movie, it’s a kind of Out of the Box thinking…
Here is a short story from a book ‘Simple Truths’ :
The nest of young eagles hung on every word as the Master Eagle described his exploits. This was an important day for the eaglets.
They were preparing for their first solo flight from the nest. It was the confidence builder many of them needed to fulfill their destiny.
"How far can I travel?" asked one of the eaglets.
"How far can you see?" responded the Master Eagle.
"How high can I fly?" quizzed the young eaglet.
"How far can you stretch your wings?" asked the old eagle.
"How long can I fly?" the eaglet persisted.
"How far is the horizon?" the mentor rebounded.
"How much should I dream?" asked the eaglet.
"How much can you dream?" smiled the older, wiser eagle.
"How much can I achieve?" the young eagle continued.
"How much can you believe?" the old eagle challenged.
Frustrated by the banter, the young eagle demanded, "Why don't you answer my questions?"
"I did."
"Yes. But you answered them with questions."
"I answered them the best I could."
"But you're the Master Eagle. You're supposed to know everything. If you can't answer these questions, who can?"
"You." The old wise eagle reassured.
"Me? How?" the young eagle was confused.
"No one can tell you how high to fly or how much to dream. It's different for each eagle.
Only God and you know how far you'll go. No one on this earth knows your potential or what's in your heart. You alone will answer that.
The only thing that limits you is the edge of your imagination."
The young eagle puzzled by this asked, "What should I do?"
"Look to the horizon, spread your wings, and fly."

Tom Reilly wrote this beautiful short story that I share in the Power of Attitude. I thought that it was an unforgettable way to communicate that our potential in life is only limited by our heart and our dreams.
Have a great and successful year ahead & FLY HIGH !!
