Let's SOAR

When we came across the word 'SOAR', we instinctively relate it to the almighty eagle, picturing the eagle dashing and spinning wild on the sky.


Indeed, eagles soaring high on the air is truly a sight to behold. Their grace and pace breathes life to the word 'SOAR'.


After experiencing the toil and moil of life, we often have a thought like this.. 
    ' How good if I'm a carefree bird (eagle in this 
       case). Just spread my wings and soar high at my
         will, flying like no one else's business..'  


In a desperate bid to actualize the imagination,
   you buy yourself some artificial feathers and a 
      tube of super glue,
   make yourself a cone hat as your beak to reduce
      the air resistance while flying. 


Ready, 1, 2 ,3 and  you flap your hands wings as hard and as fast as you can.


This is either Lady Gaga’s next bizarre outfit or your own unique way of soaring. 


    While it is commendable you apply physics in it,
        chances are you are going to have soar sore muscles
          and you still stay on the ground.



Well, you finally succumb to the reality and ask whether there is a more proper and more human way for us to soar?

Fortunately, there is. As how our Toastmaster veteran, K.C.Chee puts it,

S stands for serve (sincerely and wholeheartedly)
O stands for optimistic (even the sky falls)
A stands for appreciative (everyday is Thanksgiving Day)
R stands for resilience  ( bounce back like a bouncy basketball)


This is a much better formula and it is up to you of how to apply it in you own course of soaring. 
 
Prior to that, for sure there must be moments you feel like soaring. Sharing those moments with GHTC is never a thing to be coy about. 


Seeing this meeting is going to be a great sharing, do drop by this time and get your own spark of motivation to kick-start the SOAR formula.
