You are probably wondering about the turtle. I’ll explain: A sea turtle always swims with the flow of the waves. When the waves go in the opposite direction, the turtle just uses some energy to prevent going into the wrong direction waiting for the waves to go forward again. Swimming with the current when it goes into the direction you want consumes far less energy. The turtle can do this for a very long time without losing too much energy. The sea turtle teaches us that we should use the flow to get where we want to and focus our energy on things that are aligned with our values. Swimming against the current can be seen as losing our energy on issues that others expect from us and are not in line with our values and goals.
