A turkey was chatting with a bull. "I would love to be able to get
to the top of that tree," sighed the turkey, "but I haven't got the
energy." "Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?"
replied the bull. "They're packed with nutrients." The turkey
pecked at a lump of dung and found that it actually gave him enough
strength to reach the first branch of the tree. The next day, after
eating some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a
fortnight, there he was proudly perched at the top of the tree. Soon
he was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot the turkey out of the
tree.

Moral of the story:
Bulls**t might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.

I've got so many of these stories but I've forgotten them all!
Oh wait I've got one..

A chicken was tired of laying eggs one day and decided to take a walk. On its way, it met a crow sitting in a tree, and struck up a conversation on how tiring life was. The crow suggested that the chicken follow the crow's example and take a nap. However, being unable to reach the branches, the chicken sat down at the foot of the tree and fell asleep, where it got eaten by a fox.
Moral of the story: To be sitting around and doing nothing, you have to be sitting really high up.

And Arvon.. its LESSON :D
