I Lived With Crocodiles for years, Now... I am one!

I lived with Crocodiles for years, Now... I am one!

I spent three years living & working in the Everglades National Park in South Florida.  Many times, as a visitor would comment on the Alligator they saw, I would correct them and let them know that it was in fact, An American Crocodile.  They would argue and say that Crocodiles do not live in salt water (there are fresh water crocs), and I would correct them again by telling them that not only do American Crocodiles live in salt water,  but that they Thrive in the Everglades.  They do what they have to do to survive! 

One thing I remember most about the Crocodiles in the Everglades is that they seemed to spend a lot of time alone.  They kept their distance and I was always fascinated at how they managed to always do their own thing, when they had so much going on around them.   After taking the Quiz, and finding out that I fell into the Crocodile Category, I felt a little "More Proud" than normal.  I have always believed that I think outside the box, I have always felt that I had the endurance to survive no matter what life throws at me, no matter what is going on around me,  and I have always believed that I had that "fighting Spirit" inside.  Like the Crocodile, I will always strive to survive. 

Let's face it, Times have been tough!  There have been moments where I thought about giving up, but those moments are very brief and like the crocodile, My determination sets in and I find a way to survive....And I know that I always will.  I just sometimes need a little reminder!

When I stumbled across the latest Activerain Challenge, Surviving Your Serengeti, I was thrilled.  Like the crocodile, I always enjoy a challenge, and throw the fact that I love to read in the mix...The perfect challenge for me.  I have read just about every "Business" and "Motivational" book ever published and am often disappointed.  Not this time.  After reading just two chapters of Surviving Your SERENGETI by Stefan Swanepoel, I know that it will be one of my favorites if not  #1!  I am extremely anxious for March 1st to get here so that I can read the book in it's entirety!  Surviving Your SERENGETI is not only motivational and thought provoking, it is an easy read, it is filled with likable characters, and I will proudly display a copy on my coffee table and my desk for easy access.  I highly recommend that you download the teaser chapters, and participate in the challenge.
