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.”

The Power of Focus…
In the past 30 years, I’ve had the good fortune to be involved in 3 successful start-up companies and each became a leader in its niche. You might imagine there have been many peaks, valleys and “lessons learned” along the way. That’s why I loved writing You Can’t Send a Duck to Eagle School because I got to share my 28 simple truths of leadership. Enjoy this chapter titled: “When You Chase Two Rabbits, Both Will Escape.”
Excerpt from:
You Can’t Send a Duck to Eagle School
by Mac Anderson
At Successories in 1997, I learned about the power of focus the hard way. I didn’t – and I paid the price. Golf was the hot sport because Tiger Woods had just come on the scene. We decided to purchase a small catalog company called British Links, a leader in golf art and golf gifts. The logic was simple:
- We understood the specialty catalog business, and were already mailing 20 million catalogs a year.
- We understood the wall dcor/framing business. Successories had become one of the largest framers in the country and half of the British Links’ sales were from framed wall dcor.
I won’t bore you with the details of why this venture flopped, but within three years we sold the golf company for next to nothing. However, the most devastating part of the deal was not the money we lost from the sale of British Links, but the momentum we had lost growing Successories, our core business.
In hindsight, I was an idiot! It was like Ray Kroc saying, after having opened twenty McDonalds, it’s time to get into the pizza business. Many other businesses – like Starbucks and FedEx – focused their way to success. Repeat after me,
LESS IS MORE,
LESS IS MORE…
Author Jim Collins who wrote the best-seller, Good to Great, “nailed it” when he said: “In business, real discipline comes in saying NO to the wrong opportunities.”
Even Eagles Need a Push…
At the heart of Inspired Faith is the simple belief that, in order to flourish and truly soar in life, we need a steady stream of encouragement for the soul. In a world that can wear us down spiritually, we need inspiration for ourselves… and we need to be ready to share what we receive with others.
That is why I love the verse:
But those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)
What a wonderful promise!
So today, please allow me to share with you a gift of encouragement that I recently received from our friends at Simple Truths. When I saw the movie, Even Eagles Need A Push, it was one of the most inspiring three minutes of my life. I believe you will also be inspired and you will want to share it with others .
