The hedgehog and the fox


Mr fox claim to know many things but the hedgehog knows one big thing. The fox is a cunning creature able to devise myriads of complex strategies for sneak attack upon the hedgehog. Day in day out the fox circles around the hedgehogs den waiting for the perfect moment to pounce on the innocent hedgehog.
Fast, sleek , beautiful, fleet of foot and crafty- the fox looks like the winner.
The hedgehog on the other hand is a dowdier creature, looking like a genetic porcupine and a small armadillo. He waddles along, going about his routinely day, searching for lunch and taking care of his home.

The fox wait patiently in cunning silence at the juncture in the trail to waylay, though pretending as if he is doing his own business. The hedgehog minding his own business, wanders right into the path of the fox.
“Aha I’ve got you now! Thinks the fox” he leaps out bounding across the ground, lighting fast. The little hedgehog sensing danger looks up and thinks, “here we go again. Will he ever learn?”Rolling up into a perfect little ball, the hedgehog becomes a  sphere of sharp spikes, pointing outward in all directions. The fox bounding towards his prey, sees the hedgehog defense and calls off the attack each day.

Despite the greater cunning of the fox, the hedgehog always wins.

Lessons and morals

Be focus. Don’t be like the fox who pursues many ends at the same time and see the world in all its complexity yet achieve very little. Sometimes its good you integrate your thinking into one overall concept. Be organized
One sure plan is better than a thousand options.
