Ever wondered why a village cock can't crow in town? It's a Kenyan proverb that teaches us a valuable lesson about success.
In the village, the cock is the king of the roost. He crows loudly and proudly, and everyone knows who he is. But when he goes to town, he's just another bird in the crowd. He gets lost in the noise and the chaos, and his crow goes unheard.
The same is true for us. When we're in our comfort zone, we can shine. But when we venture into new territory, we can feel out of place and lost. We may doubt ourselves and our abilities.
But don't give up! Just remember the village cock. He may not be able to crow in town, but he's still a king. So go forth and crow with confidence, no matter where you are in life.
Here are three nuggets of wisdom from this proverb:
1. Don't be afraid to step outside of your comfort zone. It's where you'll learn and grow the most.
2. Don't compare yourself to others. Everyone is on their own unique journey.
3. Believe in yourself. You are capable of great things.
