Success is knowing what works for you. - Thomas Akingbade

Success is the the pursuit of happiness and peace.

Certain things must happen before your happiness and peace can be achieved.

You must find means to make those things happen.

They will happen surely, if you pursue them in sync with your innate and acquired strength.

Now compare Lions and Hyenas.

Killing their prey is what must happen before they derive the happiness and peace that comes with satiety.

Lions have stronger and piercing claws. They have wider and stronger jaw. They are heavier.

Lions hunt mostly in group. They strategize by running out their prey from the herd, isolate the prey, suffocate or dislocate the spine, before they can kill and eat.

But Hyena doesn't have all the anatomical advantages of Lions. They too can become prey to lions. Lions steal the prey of hyenas too.

Faced with this odds, hyenas hunt mostly alone. Hyena runs after a prey, start tearing off the flesh of the prey and eat as it runs after it.

Hyenas are able to do this because their teeth are as sharp as razor. They eat their prey alive.

Even if after the prey is dead and lions come to steal it, the hyenas have eating sufficiently from their labour.

......................................

Life is a jungle.

Know the odds against you.

Harness your innate and acquired skills.

Hyenas look more mean than lions in their method of killing prey.

Do hyenas have choice?

If your survival chances don't appeal to those who will prey on you or wish you are preyed on, if opportunity favors them, pay no attention to them.

Just make your prey happen, and enjoy your peace and happiness.
