It is important to keep moving forward and one day you will get there.

It is selfish to think you will be rewarded in all situations of kindness.

The Wind and the Sun are arguing over who is stronger. Suddenly they see a traveller coming down the road. They decide to settle to argument over whoever can get the traveller to take his coat off. The Wind blows as hard as it can, but the traveller tightens his coat up even more. Then the Sun softly shines its rays on him. The traveller suddenly feels hot and finally removes his coat. Declaring the Sun, the winner. ~ the North Wind and the Sun

People respond better to kindness and gentleness than threats and force.

It is best to maintain great relationships with everyone and to be kind to all

You have to be kind to travellers.

The Hare was much amused at the idea of running a race with the Tortoise, but for the fun of the thing he agreed. So the Fox, who had consented to act as judge, marked the distance and started the runners off. The Hare was soon far out of sight, and to make the Tortoise feel very deeply how ridiculous it was for him to try a race with a Hare, he lay down beside the course to take a nap until the Tortoise should catch up. The Tortoise meanwhile kept going slowly but steadily, and, after a time, passed the place where the Hare was sleeping. But the Hare slept on very peacefully; and when at last he did wake up, the Tortoise was near the goal. The Hare now ran his swiftest, but he could not overtake the Tortoise in time. ~ The Hare and the Tortoise

Training to win will lead to success.
