Never fail to make an attempt.

[Guest guest]

It's called Mindset!!

 

As my friend was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, confused by

the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope

tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was obvious that the

elephants could, at anytime, break away from the ropes they were tied to

but for some reason, they did not. My friend saw a trainer nearby and

asked why these beautiful, magnificent animals just stood there and made

no attempt to get away.

 

" Well, " he said, " when they are very young and much smaller we use the

same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it's enough to hold them.

As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away.

They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break

free. " My friend was amazed. These animals could at any time break free

from their bonds but because they believed they couldn't, they were

stuck right where they were.

 

Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a belief

that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before?

So make an attempt to grow further.... Why shouldn't we try it again?
