<p>A lot of things shape our lives, particularly how we lead or follow or even how to attain certain heights in any endeavour. We sometimes rely on the experience of great people before us. We also tend to study animals and the way they behave just to apply their good qualities to make our lives better. Here are 7 successful life principles to learn from eagles and how to apply these principles to make your lives better.</p><p></p><p>1. Eagles fly alone and at high altitudes. They don't fly with sparrows, ravens and other small birds.</p><p>APPLICATION: Stay away from narrow minded people, those that bring you down. Eagles flies with eagles. Keep good company and you will reach higher heights.</p><p></p><p>2. Eagles have an accurate vision. They have the ability to on something as far as 5km away. No matter the obstacles, the eagle will not move his from the prey until he grabs it. </p><p>APPLICATION: Have a vision and remain ed no matter what the obstacles and you will succeed.</p><p>3. Eagles do not eat dead things. They feed only on fresh preys. </p><p>APPLICATION: Do not rely on your past success, keep looking for new frontiers to conquer. Leave your past where it belongs; in the past.</p><p>4. Eagles love the storm. When clouds gather, the eagle get excited, the eagle uses the storms wind to lift itself higher. Once it finds the wind of the storm, the eagle uses the raging storm to lift itself above the clouds. This gives the eagle an opportunity to glide and rest its wings. In the meantime, all the other birds hide in the branches and leaves of the tree. </p><p></p><p>APPLICATION: Face your challenges head on knowing that they will make you emerge stronger and better than you were. We can use the storms of life to rise to greater heights. Achievers are not afraid to rise to greater heights. Achievers are not afraid of challenges, rather they relish them and use them profitably.</p><p>5. When a female eagle meets a male eagle and they want to mate, she flies down to earth, picks a twig and flies back into the air with the male eagle in hot pursuit. Once she has reached a height high enough for her, she drops the twig and let it fall to the ground while she watches. The male eagle chases after the twig and catches it before it reached the ground, then bring it back to the female eagle. The female eagle grabs the twig and flies to a much higher altitude and drop the twig again for the male eagle to chase. This goes on for hours with the height increasing each time until the female eagle is assured that the male eagle has mastered the art of picking the twig which shows commitment. Then and only then will she allow him to mate with her. </p><p>APPLICATION: Whether in private life or business, one should test commitment of the people intended for partnership. This is because their commitment level will translate into the going concern concept of the entity.</p><p>6. Eagles prepare for trainings. They remove the feathers and soft grass in the nest so that the young ones get uncomfortable in preparation for flying and eventually flies when it becomes unbearable to stay in the nest. </p><p></p><p>APPLICATION: Leave your comfort zone, there is certainly no growth there.</p><p>7. When the eagle grows old, his feathers becomes weak and cannot take him as fast and as high as it should. This makes him weak and could make him die. So he retires to a place far away in the mountains. While there, he plucks out the weak feathers on his body and breaks its beaks and claws against the rocks until he is completely bare; a very bloody and painful process. Then he stays in this hiding place until he has grown new feathers, new beaks and claws and then he comes out flying higher than before. </p><p>APPLICATION: We occasionally need to shed off old habits no matter how difficult it may seem. Things that burden us or add no value to our lives should be let go of.</p> <p> 很多事情会对我们的人生尤其是对如何当好领导、如何当好员工乃至于怎样通过努力达到一定的人生高度产生深远的影响。有时候我们会借鉴伟人的经验，当然也会通过研究动物及其习性，学习、运用它们优良的行为方式，以期让我们的生活变得更加美好。以下是我们从老鹰中总结出来的七个成功原则，希望能让我们的人生变得更加精彩！</p> <p>1.老鹰只与老鹰一起飞翔。老鹰能飞得非常高，他们不与麻雀、乌鸦以及其它小鸟一同飞行， 他们总是飞过最高的云层，因为他们有双有力的翅膀 ，他们只和同伴一起飞翔。</p><p>……和比你优秀的人做朋友你才能提升自我。</p><p>2.老鹰有极其开阔的视野，他们可以注视五公里内的任何事物，当老鹰锁定他们的猎物时往往都没有机会逃脱。</p><p>……站得高看得远，有远见才能取得成功。</p><p>3.老鹰不食用死物，秃鹫吃死尸而老鹰不会。</p><p>……及时清除过时消极的信息，不断调研取得最新的信息。</p><p>4.老鷹和其他的鸟类不一样，他们喜欢暴风雨，因为暴风雨可以让他们飞得更高。</p><p>……从绝望中寻找希望，人生终将辉煌。</p><p>5.雌老鹰选择配偶的时候，会从地上抓起一根树枝飞到高空 ，然后放开爪子，这时雄鹰一定要在树枝落地前把它抓住 ，然后再还给雌鹰 ，而雌鹰会一次次不断重复这个过程，并且若有一次雄鹰失败了，那么他也就没有机会争取到雌鹰了。</p><p>……需要不断测试，然后才相信他人。</p><p>6.老鹰的巢会搭在悬崖的缝隙里，并且做好几个巢。</p><p>……随时随地更好地为变化做好准备。 </p><p>7.老鹰是世界上寿命最长的鸟类。他一生的年龄可达 七十岁。要活那么长的寿命，他在 四十岁时必须做出艰难却重要的决定。当老鹰活到 四十 岁时，他的爪子开始老化，无法有效地抓住猎物。他的喙变得又长又弯，几乎碰到胸膛。他的翅膀变得十分沉重，因为他的羽毛长得又浓又厚，使得飞翔十分吃力，他只有两种选择：等死，或经过一个十分痛苦的更生过程。这个过程长达 一百五十天，他必须很努力地飞到山顶。在悬崖上筑巢，停留在那里，不得飞翔。老鹰首先用他的喙击打岩石，直到完全脱落。然后静静地等候新的喙出来。他会用新长出的喙把指甲一根一根地拔出来。当新的指甲长出来后，它们便把羽毛一根一根地拔掉。 五个月后，新的羽毛长出来了。老鹰开始飞翔，它获得了新生，可以再过 三十年的岁月！</p><p>……在我们的生命中，有时候我们必须做出困难的决定。 开始一个更新的过程。 我们必须把旧的习惯，旧的传统拋弃，使我们可以重新飞翔。</p>
