Just finished reading Surviving Your Serengeti by Stefan Swanepoel. Finished it in one sitting because it got my curiosity.
I had taken the 'what animal are you? test' before I read the book and results tagged me an Enterprising Crocodile. Also shared my thoughts about this.
However, by reading the book I was able to identify that I am more than a 'croc' which still appears to be my basic skill set. As I read the chapters, each animal brought to mind a personal life experience where I had to use a particular skill to get through the adversity. Perseverance, recognizing opportunity, doing the right thing, setting a strategy, communicating, streamlining a process, and taking huge risks to make necessary changes... Reading this book has reconnected me to my personal confidence and trust in myself - a priceless gift knowing it is good to be human.
If you haven't yet done so, I do recommend reading this book.
