[00:26.87]The first day, the woodcutter brought 18 trees.
[00:30.92]“Congratulations,” the boss said. “Go on that way!”
[00:35.29]Very motivated by the boss’s words,
[00:38.40]the woodcutter tried harder the next day,
[00:41.21]but he could only bring 15 trees.
[00:43.93]The third day he tried even harder,

[00:49.84] Day after day he was bringing less and less trees.

[01:10.20]“Sharpen? I had no time to sharpen my axe.
[01:14.26] I have been very busy trying to cut trees...”
