The Tortoise
Slow and steady, the tortoise marches boldly with strength and confidence. It started with the choice to come out of his shell and enter the race. Now, step after determined step, the tortoise inches toward victory. How does he get there? By doing what he does best and daring to be a tortoise in a hare’s world.
Our biggest failures are the dreams we don’t chase, the races we don’t start, because we can’t find the guts to take that first step. To reach the finish line, you have to begin. Come out of your shell, overcome your fears, and dare to bring your personal best time and again.
In life, worthwhile achievements take time. Rabbit trails may distract and deter. But by focusing on the path at your feet, you’ll keep moving forward. Unlike tortoises and hares, there is no real finish line in this race we’re running. Just the next step. The next bar to raise. The next personal best to strive for. Each day is a chance to make strides—
