The Lion's Beard


In Southern African Tsonga language, I malebvu ya nghala means - It's a lion's beard. This indicates something is not so frightening as it looks.

This philosophy challenges individuals to confront risk or danger head on, especially for personal gain. It comes from a proverb where a shepherd, David, hunts a lion that stole his lamb. He grabs the lion by the beard and kills it.

Even if a risk taken does not turn out as planned, if one does not face it and, " beard the lion in his den, " one will never achieve the success truly desired.





What if you did not meet first impressions with a fear reaction?  

Consider the reverse of initial apprehensions.  

Be open to probe deeper than instincts might advise.

Discover ways to conquer fear.


Become the lion and roar!
