This is called "MINDSET"
As my friends were passing by the elephants, he suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to thier front leg. No Chains or No cages. It was obvious that the elephants could, at any time, break away from the ropes they were tied to but for some reason, they did not. My friend saw the trainer nearby and asked why these beautiful and magnificient animals jus stood there and made no attempt to get away.
"Well",he said,"when they were very young and much smaller we use the same size of rope to tie them, and at that age, it's enough to hold them. As they grew up, they are conditioned to beleive they cannot break away. They beleive the rope can still hold them, so thet never try to break free."
My friend was amazed. These animals could at any time break free from their bonds but because they beleived they couldn't, they were stuck right where they were.
Like the elephants, how many of us go through life hanging onto a beleif that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before ?
So make an attempt to grow further !!!
