“In this fable, we follow the tale of an ass and his driver. The driver, tired of the ass’s slow pace, decides to drive him harder. Despite the driver’s efforts to push the ass beyond his limits, the poor animal can only move at his own steady pace. The story illustrates the lesson that trying to force someone or something beyond their capacity is often futile and can lead to negative consequences.”
