Position and possession

 A lone lion has an hunting success rate of only 15%. During a night hunt, their success rate can climb to over 40%. In areas with tall grass, they manage a success rate of over 50%, because they are able to get much closer to prey. 

They look for high probability successes- before giving the chase

Huge amount of patience waiting and watching for hours.- to find the best opportunity of chasing down the prey. 

Lions are king of beasts, but they not waste time in low probability chases. When hungry they do not run into the Savannah

And chase their prey randomly thinking

That they will just chase it down and get their dinner!!!

Lions Get into position first,  to have a higher probability of possession!!!

Now is there a lesson for us here?

A famous soccer coach said once to his student: you need to get first into position ,to get possession of the ball!

So a solution is to make the move. The puck goes where Gretzky is they say!

Anticipate...make a move....you stand better odds of possession! 

Deft footwork- like Gretzky or Tendulkar!
