 BASED ON
“TWO IN
THE BUSH”
PERSPECTIVE
 introduction:
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Its a
simple yet profound saying that encourages us to
value what we already have over the uncertainty of
potential gains.
 metaphorical meaning

Traditionally, the proverb advises us to play it safe,

stick with what we know. But what if those two in
the bush aren’t just more of the same?
What if they represent the chance to learn a new
birdcall, discover a rare species, or even find a
feathery friend that can harmonize with the one in
your hand?

PERSPECTIVE:
THE VALUE OF TWO IN THE BUSH:
LET’S CONSIDER THE ALTERNATIVE
PERSPECTIVE — THAT HAVING TWO IN
THE BUSH MIGHT BE A MORE FAVORABLE
POSITION.
LET’S EMBRACE THE ADVENTURE, KEEP
OUR EYES ON THE TREES, AND
REMEMBER THAT SOMETIMES, HAVING
TWO IN THE BUSH MIGHT JUST BE
THE SONG OF SUCCESS WE’VE BEEN
WAITING TO HEAR.
