One upon a time, a man was walking nearly to a group of elephants, he suddenly stopped, he confused by the fact that that these huge creatures were being held by only a small and thin rope which was tied to their front leg. No big chains, no cages and just a small and thin rope. It was obvious that the elephant could at any time break away from its bands. But for some reason, they did not.
He was amazed by the fact that the huge elephants are not even making an attempt to break the rope and set themselves free. He saw a trainer nearby and asked him why these elephants just stood there and med no attempt to get free. Well, the trainer said when they are very young and much smaller, we used the same size of rope to them and at that age, it was enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe that they cannot break the rope. They believe the rope can still hold them that why they never they to break free.
After listening to the answer of the trainer the man was amazed and he walked away from there. On the way he was thinking that these animals could at any time break free from their bonds. But because they believed they could not, they were struck right where they were.
If we see in our lives, we will find that like the false belief of the elephants that denied their freedom for life time. Similarly many people are not trying to work towards success in their life, just because they failed once. And they start thinking that perhaps they can never succeed in their life. And they stop doing efforts. Their condition is just like that elephant who has made a belief in his mind that he cannot break the rope and became a slave for this whole life. If you want to succeeds in your life the never than in your mind that you cannot savvied. Because it is your belief that is keeping you away from success. Therefore always keep on trying and never get tied up with some false beliefs that you cannot do it.
