There is an old African Proverb that goes ...

Every morning in Africa a gazelle wakes up and knows
that it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten.

Also ... every morning in Africa a lion wakes up and knows
that it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death.

It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle ...
When the sun comes up, you'd better be running!
