"I wasn't in the race with the tortoise," said the rabbit.

The story of the rabbit-tortoise race, which teaches us that even the weakest competitor can overtake us if we are overconfident, is well known.
The children’s stories that our ancestors gave are taught in the world’s top management universities and the corporate world today. The story of the tortoise rabbit was told about 2600 years ago.
Let us now understand this story from a slightly different perspective. There really shouldn’t be a race between rabbits and turtles. No one can run like a rabbit and no one can run slow like a turtle. However, the race between the two is "very unfair". Suppose the tortoise tells the rabbit that let's compete in such a way that someone throws a heavy stone at you from above and then on my back. Well, who can bear more weight than maybe the rabbit won't even live to see the result?
Nature has given each creature a different trait and habitat for its self-defense. If a limit is given, another strength is also given. Our difficulty begins when we spend our lives not only in acquiring the unique special ability that nature has given to others but also in competing with it, instead of recognizing the unique ability that nature has given us.
God has given us the ability to shine in music. If you get happiness and you can earn a name and a price, you can become a doctor. Become a computer engineer even if you have an innate sense of wild photography or architect. Even if he has the vision to succeed in business, he becomes a government or an employee and then compares himself with other successful people and regrets not being able to be like him or then enters the race.
The story of the rabbit tortoise also teaches that due to the laziness, inactivity, faltering self-confidence and self-willed attitude of many respondents in the society, they are wasting their lives in influencing the small group without providing anything concrete. Turtle-like limiters make life successful by reaching the pinnacle of achievement, progress and contribution peacefully, diligently, quietly.
The tortoise knew that he was going to lose the race against the rabbit, but he entered the race with the excuse that he could bring out his maximum potential, but his mood gave him the victory. The tortoise did not go down to win the race, unlike the rabbit did not go down to lose. The conquest of the tortoise was a tremendously upsetting consequence of the world of forest and the arrangement of nature. The same thing happens in life.
The destiny of rest is not the attainment of effort and the destiny of effort is not the attainment of rest. This is an alternative theory of karma.
