Where Tigers Belch

Updated: May 12

"Where tigers belch and monkeys howl beyond that next turning of the canyon walls

.--Edward Arbery




Finding Your Passion--It will be where tigers belch.
Finding Your Passion--It will be where tigers belch.

 

To find what you want to do, Martha Beck suggested sitting in a room and allowing your eyes to glide over the objects found there. When a particular object attracts you, stop and ask yourself why you chose that. Next, write down its characteristics. Third, ask how those characteristics pertain to your business. And what business might that be?

 

Don't judge yourself. Be as stupid as you can. That frees your mind. Allow yourself to keep doing it over and over. In the process, you may hit on that one thing or more than one. You're allowed.


I tried the experiment. My eyes landed on a little plastic orange pill bottle on the bookshelf.

 

What attributes did it have? Well, it was a container that held something good and intended to be beneficial and healing. It was a small container, ordinary, apparently insignificant, but held mighty ingredients.

 

How could I use that as a business?


A webpage is that. Small, ordinary, apparently insignificant, but holds mighty ingredients.



You might have read Paulo Coelho's book, The Alchemist, where a shepherd boy begins a quest to find a treasure and something he calls his" Personal legend."

 

Here is another quest as a young college student sets off into the jungle to find her purpose and reason for being. And she declared it would be where the tiger's belch that she would find it.

 



Where Tigers Belch


Chapter One


You might think I spent the night quivering in my debris hut, listening for the footfalls of wild animals.

 

 I did.

 

 I'm joking. I slept like a relaxed dog with all four paws in the air.

 

 I was on a mission and wouldn't let a minor inconvenience stop me.

 

 Ahead was the goal of my life.
