Long ago, a man was passing a
village and astonished by seeing a huge elephant with his trainer. He wondered
and confused by the fact that these huge creatures are just held by a small
rope in their front leg. There are no chains and no cages to hold them. He
wondered the giant animal can break the rope anytime and can harm somebody.
He moved towards the trainer and
asked why these beautiful and magnificent animals stood as such and didn’t try
to get away from the rope.
Trainer 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.
The man was really surprised and
thought these animals could break free from their bonds any time 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?
Failure is part of learning; we
should never give up the struggle in life.
How many of us are being held
back by old, outdated beliefs that no longer serve us? How many of us have
avoided trying something new because of a limiting belief? Worse, how many of
us are being held back by someone else’s limiting beliefs?
Whatever you can conceive and
believe, you can achieve!
CHOOSE not to accept the false
boundaries and limitations created by the past.
Move On!!!!!!!!!
