What Kind of Bird Are You?

    There are three (3) kinds of birds:
    A BUZZARD: They eat dead things.
    A CHICKEN: They peck around for things.
    AN EAGLE: They soar in, over and through things.

What kind of bird are you?


    ARE YOU A BUZZARD?
    • You are a buzzard if you are still eating off the dead relationships of your past? 
    • You are a buzzard if you are still eating off the bitterness, hurts, abuses from your past.
    • You are a buzzard if you are taking handouts of dead issues from other buzzards.

         ARE YOU A CHICKEN?
    • You are a chicken if you are still pecking around after men that disrespected you, cheated on you and in general dogged you out.
    • You are a chicken if you allow people to walk over you, never speak up for yourself and peck around like a chicken when they mistreat you.
    • You are a chicken if you are pecking around waiting for other people to validate who you are.
    • You are a chicken if you are always looking back at your past, calling it “the good ole days” and never making new memories or having new testimonies.
    • You are a chicken if this brochure has offended you because you think I shouldn’t have written it.

       ARE YOU AN EAGLE?
    • Eagles fly alone at high altitude and not with sparrows or other small birds. No other bird can get to the height of the eagle. Stay away from sparrows and ravens. Eagles fly with Eagles.
    • Eagles have strong vision. They have the ability to focus on something up to five kilometers away. When an eagle sites his prey, he narrows his focus on it and set out to get it. No matter the obstacles, the eagle will not move his focus from the prey until he grabs it. Have a vision and remain focused no matter what the obstacle and you will succeed.
    • Eagles do not eat dead things. They feed only on fresh prey. Vultures eat dead animals, but eagles will not. Be careful with what you feed your eyes and ears with, especially in movies and on TV. Steer clear of outdated and old information. Always do your research well.
    • Eagles love the storm. When clouds gather, the eagles get excited. The eagle uses the storm’s wind to lift it higher. Once it finds the wind of the storm, the eagles uses the raging storm to lift him above the clouds. This gives the eagle an opportunity to glide and rest its wings. In the meantime, all the other birds hide in the leaves and branches of the trees. We can use the storms of life to rise to greater heights. Achievers relish challenges and use them profitably.
