SIDETRACKED

We sometimes miss the great opportunities of life because we get sidetracked.
 
 
 A tale is told of a talented and gifted bloodhound in England that started a hunt by chasing a full-grown male deer. During the chase, a fox crossed his path, so he began to chase the fox.
 
 
 A rabbit crossed his hunting path, so he began to chase the rabbit. After chasing the rabbit for a while, a tiny field mouse crossed his path, and he chased the mouse to the corner of a farmer’s barn. The bloodhound had begun the hunt chasing a prized male deer for his master and wound up barking at a tiny mouse.
 
 It is a rare human being who can do three or four different things at a time–moving in different directions.
