A boy and his father went to a temple. There they saw a huge elephant that was tied to a beam with a chain.
After seeing this, the boy asked his father “You told me elephant is one of the strongest animals and why it’s not able to break the small chain to get itself free?”
His father replied “Son, the elephant when it was young, was tied with a similar chain and it didn’t have strength at that time to break away. As the days went, its mind was tuned such a way that it doesn’t have the strength to break the chain”.
Now even though it has strength, they believe that the chain can still hold them and it cannot be broken.
Like this elephant how many of us are still stuck in our life, saying we can’t do this?
“Just because you fall once, doesn’t mean you’re failing at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always trust yourself, because if you don’t then who will?” – Marilyn Monroe
Moral of the story:
Never stop trying and underestimate your strength against the resistance like the chain which is stopping you against your growth.
