Tortoise or Hare

     While I am not really sure which one I am , at this moment it seems to me that I am a hare. Out of the gate at top speed , but as of late , having a nap . Although , the more I think about it , I see myself as more of a tortoise ,  more interested in the journey than the destination slow but steady. Unfortunately I need a deadline , it gives me a sense of urgency and a finish line. Under pressure I appear to work better ( the proverbial gun to head). When that is not there I hear myself saying "Why do today what you can put off until tomorrow."

     I did join Kung Fu hoping to achieve a black belt in 5 years , that deadline has since passed (no gun), and even though I am disappointed that I didn't make it , my journey has most definitely been worth it and even when I do get my black belt it will not be over.   So which am I?
