Be like the hedgehog

I see so many posts about being a Lion. Having to be the King of the Jungle. 
Personally, I don't think this is 100% accurate. What I would suggest is that you become the best version of yourself. To recognise what you do well and perfect it.


Da Vinci said that "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication"


If you read Jim Collins' book "Good to Great" there is a wonderful story about the Fox and the Hedgehog. 

The key takeaway is that the Hedgehog survives because it utilises its strength and does one thing really well. It curls into a ball for protection! The Fox cannot get at the Hedgehog because it is so good at protecting itself. 

Take this as a lesson and think how you can apply it to different aspects of your life.

Be like the Hedgehog...and they're also cute!
