The Tortoise's Adventure

in hive-187593 •  3 years ago 

The adage "the race is not for the speedy" and "the one who begins first must inevitably finish first" are true. The wonderful thing about life as we currently understand it or have come to understand it is that every one of us chooses our own unique routes in life, each of which is unique in its own way.

Similar to the tale of the tortoise and the hare, living successfully involves making the correct choices, using knowledge and wisdom in everything you do, and remaining humble along the way in case the Lord chooses to elevate you. The race between the tortoise and the hare offers many lessons.

However, the point I want to make with you today is that trying to travel at the same speed as someone else who may be in a different lane may not be the best option for you. By letting other people control your every action, you risk losing your direction and purpose in life.

If you were to run in lane 8 and try to match the effort of someone in lane 1, you would need to use more energy to finish. As a result, if you concentrated on the person in lane 1 and his speed, you would fall behind and things wouldn't turn out as you had intended.

Therefore, let's keep our attention on our own paths and what we must do to arrive at our own destinations while still attempting to learn from others and maintaining an open mind in all of our decisions. Our life's purpose differs from others, and we should not allow others' opinions to diverge us from it.

Stay Safe!!!!

Thank you for posting in the steem Ghana community. But you recently stopped power down and I encourage you to power up more steem in future in order to qualify for club 5050 or higher.

And please do not use the club5050 tag if you are not eligible.

Thank you.

The power down you see wasn't initiated by me. My ACCount was hacked. I spoke to @nattybongo about this. As you clearly see I had been inactive for 2 months and came back to see my account being powered down. Luckily enough I didn't come to see my account empty .

Am sorry to hear about that buddy. You can continue posting but until the cashout history is cleared you are not eligible to use the club 5050 tag.

So true we've got to be focused to get to our own destination. The race is not for the Swift.
