Highway Alliance: Highlights

(Soon to be placed here)

HA Aquileo


This is Aquileo, formerly known as Aquila-Leonem.

The name is a combination of the Latin for Aquila and Leonem, which is for the Eagle and the Lion.

Highway Alliance's Aquileo is the Eagle and Lion as one, so chosen for the qualities they are known for.


The motto is Fides et Firmus.


"Leadership" - Through The Eyes Of An Eagle - by Tyron (Ty) Hanson

Some believe leaders are born. Others believe that leaders are developed. I believe that people are born with certain leadership characteristics. The characteristics that they are not born with can be developed. Some of these characteristics we can get from the Eagle. By observing and studying this matchless bird you can pick up on leadership characteristics to help develop you and your network marketing team.

The eagle shows four major leadership characteristics:

1) Vision
Just like the eagle, all leaders must have vision. The eagle's eyes can see great distances. They can also directly into the sun without being blinded. You, being the leader of your network marketing team, must have vision. You must have a vision that guides and leads your team towards the organization's goals. The vision must be big and focused. A big, focused vision will produce big results.

2) Eagles Never Eat Dead Meat
You will never see an eagle eating meat that it did not kill. An eagle is not a scavenger. It hunts for and kills its own food. It hunts for the prey while it's warm and alive. You as a leader must go where the action is. You must go where hunt down and find lively people to grow you business.

3) Looks For & Flies Into Storms
As storms approach, lesser birds head for cover, but the might eagle spreads its wings and with a great cry mounts upon the powerful updrafts, soaring to heights of glory. Eagles use the storm to lift him to these great heights. Leaders use storms (challenges); we don't run from them. To leaders, storms are tools used for their development.
The eagle's eyes can see great distances...you must have a vision that guides and leads your team.

4) Very Gentle & Attentive To Their Young
The eagle is known for its ferocity, yet no member of the bird family is more gently and attentive to its young. At just the right time, the mother eagle begins to teach her eaglets how to fly. She gathers an eaglet onto her back, and spreading her wings, flies high. Suddenly she swoops out from under the eaglet and as it falls, it gradually learns what its wings are for until the mother catches it once again on her wings. The process is repeated. If the young is slow to learn or cowardly, she returns him to the nest, and begins to tear it apart, until there is nothing left for the eaglet to cling to. Then she nudges him off the cliff. In summary, TEACH AND TRAIN your organization! Network marketing is about duplication!

By studying the eagle, you can be born with and also develop leadership characteristics.

Developing and using them your network marketing business will grow and become very profitable.

6 Characteristics of the Lion to Consider For Your Own Leadership

As a leader, there are certain qualities and characteristics of lions that you might find useful to consider - for yourself and your "pride." Let us just take a few minutes to explore these and as with all metaphors, we aren't going to beat this one to death.

1. Protective
You don't have to watch very many Discovery Channel shows about lions to see how very protective they are - of territory, themselves, their young, and so forth. As far as being more lion-like, what do you need to be protective of? Protective of yourself? Your money? Your children? Your partner? Your spouse? Your business? Your colleagues? Your position? Your beliefs? So, exactly what do you need to be protective of?

2. Brave
Being lion-like means you are brave and courageous. Naturally, you choose when and where to be brave vs. timid, courageous vs. cowardly. We all make choices every day. Look for opportunities today and every day where you can be brave. It does make a difference, both for you and for others.

3. Willing to fight
Hmm...we know that lions will fight when need be. They don't pick fights but because they are willing to protect their food, their mates, their territory and so forth, they will fight if necessary. What is the one thing you are willing to fight for?
Many readers are parents and my guess is that many parents would be willing to fight for their children. Or maybe you are a professor who is willing to fight when you see other faculty members being bullied. Maybe you are a teacher who is fighting for particular students who need your "protection."
What is it for you? Really. What are you willing to fight for? The one thing?

4. Hunters
LOTS of people are concerned right now about financial issues. Someone wrote to me recently that she had overheard middle school girls in the bathroom at a movie talking about how they needed to come up some ways to earn money because after the legislature was over, their parents weren't going to be able to give them money for the movies any longer. You might be one of the people who is "hunting" for money. You might be hunting for it for your own personal situation or you are hunting money for projects at work or for community needs and the like.
But what else do us lion-like folks hunt for? You might describe it thus:
• Bravery to find what really makes me happy
• Bravery to ignore what others feel is successful and find my own success
• Bravery to dare to make dramatic changes in the path of my career that will also change my personal life...and vice versa
What are you hunting? And just like a lion on the Savannah, you may or may not find it, but you hunt regardless.

5. Group members (part of a pride)

6. Loners in the big scheme of things
The last two - being part of a group (i.e., a pride) and also being somewhat loners in the big scheme of things - let's think about these together.
As a person who is seeking ways of staying positive, no matter how crazy things are around us, we need both to see ourselves as being part of a pride - a team - a family - a group - an association - a community - or whatever you might call it. We have to deliberately assemble our group - small or large - that will assist us in our - if I can use this word - survival. Lions aren't part of prides for no reason. There's a reason. You need a "pride" of your own if you are to "survive" in your positive place.

And, here's the other part (at least as my little brain considers this), we are also loners in the bigger scheme of things. What I mean by that is, just as lions are not hanging out with all the other animals but rather hang out - sometimes completely alone - but certainly mostly just with a few other lions, we also may need to separate ourselves sometimes.
