I learned a few things about geese I’d like to pass on.
1.As each goose flaps his wings he produces lift for the geese behind him. They can fly 71% further than each goose could fly alone. When we go in a common direction we go easier on the thrust of each other.
2. When the lead goose tires another takes over. When we take turns leading we can be independent. We want to be do life for ourselves, but not by ourselves
3. The geese in back honk encouragement to the others. Make sure the honks in the back are the honks of encouragement.
4. When one goose is sick or shot two other geese drop out to help and protect him until he’s well or dies. Then they catch up with the others.
Who would have thought that we people could learn such great things from geese?
