The turtle who lost focus

Some animals lived near a pond, but the pond was drying up. The birds went on a mission to find a larger pond and found it a few kilometers further away. They all began to move under the direction of the birds who even carried the fishes in their beak. Only an old big turtle remained, too slow to move by herself and too heavy to be carried. “Please help me to reach the new pond!” Said the turtle. They therefore decided to use a large branch to which the turtle had to cling with her beak, then the birds have to fly together raising the branch with the claws, but the turtle should not have lost focus, because if she opened her mouth she would fall, and so they did. Arriving above the pond but still very high, they heard the voices of other animals wondering curiously what is that thing in the sky. The turtle wanted so much to answer that it was her. And still the questions came, even more pressing: what is it? What is it? So much so the turtle was unable to restrain herself and said: it's meeee ... falling down.

Your success depends on your focus.
