Welcome to Darren Daly on demand, your most trusted resource to help you become better every day.

Here's your success mentor, Darren Hardy.

As business leaders, entrepreneurs, and high achievers, as we venture through the vast and unforgiving, wild terrain of today's modern society and global marketplace,

our journey bears a striking resemblance to that of many small animal creatures having to navigate the dark and treacherous underbrush of a dense and unforgiving forest.

In the forest, the threats are many, and the predators, both seen and unseen, are always on the prowl, just waiting for you to slip up.

Just as a creature in the wild terrain of the forest faces the constant dangers of predators, harsh conditions, and scarce resources, so too do we confront a myriad of formidable challenges in this modern world. These challenges and threats

include the rapid pace of technological change that can render skills, job roles, and existing

business models obsolete overnight. Global competition that's always trying to mimic your products

and price cut your solutions. The constant volatility of economic cycles that can upend

industries with little notice, the rise of misinformation affecting decision making, and the ceaseless

war for talent, with companies trying to capture and keep vital talent. Each of these elements

contributes to a landscape where survival and sustaining success is more treacherous and perilous than ever before.

So how do we do it? Well, I think it's best to turn to nature, who's been fighting this battle,

but on a far more epic scale, literally life or sudden death, for millions of years. Let me show you a beautiful short clip

that shows us the answer from some of the greatest

survivalists on the planet.

Zero to 40 miles an hour in under a second.

The fastest acceleration of any bird of prey.

Short, rounded wings and a foot-long tail

steer through dense forest with unparalleled agility.

Yet even she can be outmaneuvered.
