Question

Over coming fear is the first flight step to success. How does this saying stand true in context of the story his first flight

Answer 1

Answer:

The greatest fear for every creature in this world is of death and danger. For man failure is an added fear.

Overcoming this fear is the first step to success.

In the story 'His first flight' by Liam O' Flaherty, the author expresses the fear of a baby sea gull in taking his first flight.

A sea gull family had nestled on a cliff above the sea. When the baby sea gulls grew of age to fly the parent sea gulls escorted them to take their first flight.

All except one sea gull successfully completed their first flight and consequently the flew away to a newer habitat.

But one particular sea gull was too afraid to take his first flight. He refused to fly off the ledge in fear of falling. His mother could not get him to muster up courage to take the flight.

Finally ridden by hunger and desperation he takes the plunge. Immediately he overcomes his fear and soars gleefully over the sea.

Thus his first flight establishes the fact that 'Overcoming fear is the first step to success.'
