Rhinoceros Success

“Am I Rhinoceros or a cow?”

“Rhinoceroses charge with singleness of purpose. All of your energies are directed towards the attainment of your one burning desire”
In this instance I would I would say I was a rhinoceros. I always put 100% into the things I take part in, whether it is education or sports and hobbies. I feel there is no point taking part in an activity without the sole intention of doing it well and succeeding.

“Not even rhinoceroses get to the top of the hill without slipping a few times.”
This says to me that being audacious and forceful, the way you have to be to get rhinoceros success doesn’t always go smoothly, but keep at it.

I love travelling to new places, seeing new things, meeting new people and altogether broadening my horizons. Being in the same surroundings with the same tedious routine is very uninspiring and I much prefer new challenges to ‘charge’ at.

“Cows remain cows because they have no discipline. They have no control over all the bad habits which make them a cow.”
With this quote I would love to say I was a Rhino and that I was far from being a cow, but the truth is it isn’t entirely black and white. I am fairly disciplined in a
