The deer can run at speed up to 80 kilometres per hour, while the tiger can run at a maximum speed of 65 kilometres per hour.

So, if the deer runs faster than the tiger, why does the deer become a victim of the tiger?

The reason is that the deer believes it is weaker than the tiger, this fear makes the deer look back again and again during a chase.

By so doing, the deer loses its speed as well as courage and becomes a victim of the tiger while the tiger only focuses on the deer.

This is similar to what happens in life too, those who focus and pursue their goal with courage are the people who win in life’s pursuits.

Don’t be like the deer. Instead, be strong and courageous like the tiger, because strength and courage are two essential habits of success, that will help you succeed at just about anything you do in life.

Courage and strength go hand-in-hand.

It takes courage to start again after you have failed.

It takes courage to face the world alone.
