It seems like
Everybody’s out there
Trying to catch that big buck
And I’m just running around
Trying to catch a little rabbit
That sucker dodges here and there
Then sits still
And I’m almost on it
When….pa-Ching…it’s gone again
Moving just out of reach
Sometimes I wonder
Is it the thrill of the chase
Or is it the idea of the catch
That brings us the most satisfaction
In pursuit of a goal
The look on the face
Of those who have
Bagged a big buck
Makes it seem like the catch
Was pretty satisfying
Someone who
Has reached the pinnacle
Of goal achievement
A master big buck hunter
Offered this advice
Don’t get discouraged
Go out there
Chase a rabbit
Go hard after it
Put it in your bag
Chasing rabbits will lead you
Where you want to go
Small successes fuel momentum
They keep you moving forward
Suddenly
You will see
That big buck standing right there
Fully
Within your reach
