Motivational Power Quote
Behave Like a Duck
“Always
behave like a duck – keep calm an unruffled
on the surface but paddle like the devil underneath.”
Jacob Braude, Circuit Court Judge
As I see it. . . . . . . .
Behave like a duck
When you see a duck on the rainy days
you will see that the rain . . . . is beading and running off the ducks back.
You need to behave like that duck. When you encounter those rainy days in your
life . . . . you need to allow the rain to bead and roll off your back . . . . and
focus on solutions.
You will also notice that the duck seems
to be gliding smoothly through the water with a sense of ease. What we don’t
see is . . . . how hard the duck is paddling under the water surface to go
forward.
Some days you are going to have paddle
as hard as you can . . . . to make progress and to go forward.
You have to remain calm when you are navigating
the turbulence that you have encountered. When you lose your composure and
become disheveled . . . . you lose focus on the issues. Instead making progress
you paddle around in circles without . . . . any real purpose or progress.
Behave like a duck . . . . and once you
set your course paddle as hard as you can to get there.
