Most people knew the Lion to be the king of the jungle,and even some kids do know that too.But,the interesting fact remains that,most of these people do not know why the lion is and also remains the king of the jungle till date.Below are some of the shocking and interesting facts about the lion that you probably do not know;
1.The lion is not the smartest in the jungle;foxes,chimpanzees,gorillas are smarter than the lion.
2.The lion is not the tallest in the animal kingdom;the giraffe is taller than the lion.
3.The lion is not the largest or heaviest animal in the jungle;the elephant is larger than the lion in terms of size and about 20 times heavier than the lion.
4.The lion is not the most speedy animal in the jungle;the cheetah has more speed than the lion.
5.The lion is not as fine as the tiger and therefore not the finest in the animal kingdom.
6.The lion is not as strong as the elephant or tiger;infact, a stump of an elephant can injure the lion but he still remains the king of the jungle.
Despite all these disadvantages,the lion is still the king of his domain that is,the animal kingdom.What then is the“why"that made the lion so spectacular,exceptional and unique?
I figured it out and the reason is...“simply the lion's belief system,his mind power and attitude".Let me expound on what i mean by that,whenever a lion sees a buffalo or an elephant for example,he sees them as his prey or food in his belief system while on the other hand,the buffalo or elephant sees an eater or a consumer in their own belief system even though the kill the lion in very rare occasions.
This powerful tool of mind power,belief system and bold attitude of the lion as in regards to the other animals in the animal kingdom make him fearless and applies it to any animal that comes his way.The lion is not moved by either their strenght,smartness,shape,size and weight, and this makes him confront them with confidence even though he retreats in very rare cases.
Here is a great lesson to learn from the lion that can be applicable to we humans,“always have the mindset,belief system,bold and fearless attitude of seeing challenges as food even though they are almost inevitable".
Before i draw the curtain, I personally strongly believe that,even the founders of this awesome platform called“STEEMIT",that has revolutionize and helped many to be finantially independent,in honor of Ned Scott and Dan Larimar were able to withstand all the challenges they were perhaps,faced with,and overcame by the belief system of the lion.Thanks for reading and please don't forget to upvote this post.
