What Do You Need More Of? | Andrew L. Anderson@andrewlanderson #menareforged
Episode 132 - Oak-Like Strength and Willow Flexibility
Andrew's coach compared the protagonist to an oak tree, noting that he had an incredible strength but could benefit from having a bit more flexibility like a willow. The oak tree's strength comes from its vertical taproot connecting it to the source which allows for a horizontal root system four to seven times larger than the foliage. It is resilient and able to withstand storms and pests/diseases. The coach suggested the protagonist could benefit from being more like a willow, being flexible but not breaking.
I had an incredible coach once who taught me about the strength of an oak tree and how it applies to life. He said I have that same strength, but also the opportunity to be more like a willow - to bend when needed, but not break. #OaklikeStrength #WillowPower
"I had a coach
once that said
“Andrew
you have incredible
Oak like strength
and I think
you might need
a little bit more willow”
I was like
what in the heck
are you talking about?
right?
Like I am not following
this analogy
and then
he taught me about
an oak’s strength
in its longevity
is derived from being
connected to the source
It has this tab root
that drives down vertically
that allows it
to grow out
a horizontal root system
that is four
to seven times
the foliage at the top of the tree
And he said
that oak like strength
is one of the hardest woods
It never comes
down in a storm
It has an incredible
defense system
to ward off any pests
or any diseases
And so
it's just resilient
And he said
you show up that way
and there's an opportunity
free to be more
like a willow
as well
to bend
when needed
but not break
