Duck Hunting Lesson

I have learned several things from duck hunting. Life lessons if you will. One of the first, and most significant, is that if you don’t shoot on a group of ducks, you are probably going to wish you had. Now we can compare this to life all day. Opportunities not taken, chances missed, women we should have asked out, and men you should have smiled at. Now let me get deeper in it. If you have a blind full of hunters, and at least one of them shoots at a group of ducks, whether a duck falls or not, they shot and those ducks are gone and so is the opportunity. Yes they may have gotten closer, yes they may have swung differently, but the point is the chance is there and you didn’t take it. Let this be a lesson learned. Let this be lesson #1.
