Best Assets

So why does the ostrich disable its best asset, by sticking its head in the sand? When discussing this with a colleague his starting point was a dismissive. "Ostriches do not stick their heads in the sand" he said with a deflating tone. Which in some ways makes the point. A great little parable encouraging one to build on the positive and seek out success affirmation, and yet the thing never sticks its head in the sand.
