Direction is so Much More Important Than Speed or Destination

Lesson #1
A Rabbit runs, jumps, moves faster and lives for only fifteen years while a Tortoise doesn't even attempt any of such activities but lives for 150 years or more.

LESSON: Life is not about rushing, comparisons and doing what others are doing but rather keep calm and do what is right and what you are called to do. Direction is so much more important than speed, many are going nowhere fast. They may live in the same forest with the same color and play together but we must remember that we will have age mates, class mates, school mates, office mates but there is no 'destiny mate' in this life. Be who you are called to be, love who you are and thank God for your special journey which may not look like others! It's not where you are from, it's where you are going now that matters. Everybody gets knocked down sometimes. What matter is how quick you are gonna get up and keep on moving.

This is the simplest way to succeed in life!! God bless you, and keep looking forward because those beside you are not going where you are exactly going......

Lesson #2

The engine of a giant ship failed to start.

The ship's owners tried one expert after another, but none of them could figure out how to fix the engine.

Then they brought in an old man who had been fixing ships since he was a youngster. He carried a large bag of tools with him, and when he arrived, he immediately went to work. He inspected the engine very carefully, top to bottom.

Two of the ship's owners were there, watching this man, hoping he would know what to do. After looking things over, the old man reached into his bag and pulled out a small hammer. He gently tapped something. Instantly, the engine lurched into life. He carefully put his hammer away. The engine was fixed!

A week later, the owners received a bill from the old man for ten thousand dollars.

"What?!" the owners exclaimed. "He hardly did anything!"

So they wrote the old man a note saying, "Please send us an itemized bill."

The man sent a bill that read:

Tapping with a hammer $ 2.00
Knowing where to tap $ 9998.00

Effort is important, but knowing where to make an effort makes all the difference!

Direction is so much more important than speed, many are going nowhere fast
