Once upon a time a tortoise and a hare had an argument about who was faster. They decided to settle the argument with a race. They agreed on a route and started off the race. 從前，有一隻烏龜和一隻兔子在互相爭辯誰跑得快。他們決定來一場比賽分高下，選定了路線，就此起跑。 The hare shot ahead and ran briskly for some time. Then seeing that he was far ahead of the tortoise, he thought hed sit under a tree for some time and relax before continuing the race. 兔子帶頭衝出，奔馳了一陣子，眼看它已遙遙領先烏龜，心想，它可以在樹下坐一會兒，放鬆一下，然後再繼續比賽。 He sat under the tree and soon fell asleep. The tortoise plodding on overtook him and soon finished the race, emerging as the undisputed champ. 兔子很快地在樹下就睡著了，而一路上笨手笨腳走來的烏龜則超越過它，不一會兒完成比賽，成為最後的冠軍。 The hare woke up and realized that hed lost the race. The moral of the story is that slow and steady wins the race. 等兔子一覺醒來，才發覺它輸了。這個故事給我們的啟示是：緩慢且持續的人會贏得比賽。 This is the version of the story that weve all grown up with. 這是從小伴隨我們長大的龜兔賽跑故事的版本。 But then recently, someone told me a more interesting version of this story. It continues. 但最近有人告訴了我一個更有趣的版本。故事這麼連續下去。 The hare was disappointed at losing the race and he did some Defect Prevention (Root Cause Analysis). He realized that hed lost the race only because he had been overconfident, careless and lax. 兔子當然因輸了比賽而倍感失望，為此他做了些缺失預防工作（根本原因解析）。它很清楚，失敗是因它太有信心，大意以及散漫。 If he had not taken things for granted, theres no way the tortoise could have beaten him. So he challenged the tortoise to another race. The tortoise agreed. 如果它不要自認一切都是理所當然的，烏龜是不可能打敗它的。因此，它單挑烏龜再來另一場比賽，而烏龜也同意。 This time, the hare went all out and ran without stopping from start to finish. He won by several miles. 這次，兔子全力以赴，從頭到尾，一口氣跑完，領先烏龜好幾公里。 The moral of the story？ Fast and consistent will always beat the slow and steady. 這故事的有什麼啟示？動作快且前後一致的人將可勝過緩慢且持續的人。 If you have two people in your organization, one slow, methodical and reliable, and the other fast and still reliable at what he does, the fast and reliable chap will consistently climb the organizational ladder faster than the slow,
